Abstract: In the comprehensive land consolidation stage, rural land consolidation has become into an important topic and social focus in the field of land resource management because of scale, extension coverage and investment of land consolidation projects. The development of rural land consolidation took the projects as a carrier, the cultivated land quantity as an object and the "top-down" planning management as a model in the past nearly 10 years. Under this background,the problem that process was out of control and performance was insufficiency in rural land consolidation had become far more obvious and serious. After literature review on the topic at home and abroad, it was found that most researches paid attention to the project output and only took a single project as a case, few emphasized the multi-project comparison, which may ignore the most important factors in the performance mechanism. Considering about that, the quantitative research on the performance and its influencing factors of rural land consolidation was done in this paper by the perspective of process control and multi-projects comparison. In the method, the matter-element model was applied and 12 projects of Zhejiang province was taken as the study case, which was chosen based on the field research and officers' and peasants' interview. The research result showed that: 1) a process logic framework named IPOE (input, process, output and effect) and index system of performance evaluation on rural land consolidation projects should be constructed, which under four dimension of resource input, organization management, construction achievement and comprehensive effect. 2) Generally speaking, the performance of 12 projects in different area of Zhejiang province were different from each other, among which 2 projects were on the excellent level, 1 was on the good level, 3 projects reached the general level, 6 projects was closed to the worse level. 3) The main performance influencing factors were road network density, defense tree network density, land use efficiency, vegetation coverage and biodiversity by the comparison research results of 12 projects. 4) Matter-element evaluation model was suitable for this kind of study. The most important aspect of this method was to set up a scientific classical and extensional matter element. The research showed that: 1) Macro-management policy of total amount control leaded to the local government thinking of amount-result, which deviated from the essential value of rural land consolidation far away. According to the study abroad and the research result of this paper, taking the perspective of process, not only the result, will be conducive to study the problem of rural land consolidation deeply and closer to the performance nature, which was the inevitable requirement of the rural land consolidation development in the comprehensive period; 2) Making policy of rural land consolidation needed scientific and rational evaluation method and thought. A single project or the result thinking cannot provide enough reference for the policy making, while the matter-element evaluation model collected with a single impact factor analysis and process control thinking can do. Thus, the evaluation method of multiple projects comparison can provide a scientific guarantee to the policy innovation of rural land consolidation in China; 3) To some extension, lower in road network density and defense tree network density, land use inefficiency, lower vegetation coverage and reduction of biodiversity in rural land consolidation areas of Zhejiang province were the inevitable result of lack of process monitor and project organization. Finally, this paper suggests that process control tactics, institution arrangement, project organization management should be implement to reach the higher performance in Chinese rural land consolidation development in the future.
