    Intrinsic driving force of rural land integrated consolidation

    • Abstract: Urban-rural integrated development is one of the important topics of today's society and economic development in China. In recent years, being a crucial means of urban-rural integrated development, rural land integrated consolidation has received unprecedented advancement, which has also functioned positively in aspects such as alleviating the contradiction between supply and demand of land, changing farmers' production and lifestyle, and so on. However, issues such as farmers' being forced to go upstairs and poverty due to going upstairs which went against farmers' will and did harm to farmers' right appeared in some places, and those issues have a negative influence on propelling consolidation activity. Some researchers and management levels expressed doubts about it, and a land-management department was once forced to suspend the approval of relevant project. Now, it is very urgent to clarify the relationship between rural land integrated consolidation and the urban-rural integrated development theoretically, discuss the inner driving force, and to implement the theory.Firstly, from the perspective of concept refreshment, this paper makes fundamental analysis of the connotation, nature, function, and significance of rural land integrated consolidation under urban-rural integrated development, proposes that rural land integrated consolidation is an vital path for urban-rural integrated development, and illuminates its relationship with land-utilization planning. The certain kind of consolidation has played an important historical role in fields such as protecting farmland, ensuring national food security, building homeland ecological security, solving issues concerning agriculture, rural areas and farmers, enhancing land resources' support capabilities for China's rapid economic development, and leapfrog development.Then from a macroscopic view, this paper analyzes the intrinsic driving force of rural land integrated consolidation from the aspects of the economy, society and politics. The economic driving force mainly answers four problems: supply and demand relationships and economic development status of land resources; land resources sustainable supply issues and challenges; main problems encountered in agricultural land utilization and agricultural development trends; and the inevitability of land resources management reform. The social driving force mainly analyzes from three aspects: urban and rural dualistic structure; the major contradictions and problems within rural society; and whether rural land integrated consolidation can promote the development of rural society. Political driving force centers on aspects such as the ruling party and whether the government should undertake the main responsibility in new rural construction; the urgency of improving and strengthening the rural power infrastructure at present; and whether rural land integrated consolidation can achieve the purpose of consolidation of rural regime.After that, along the logic chains of social and economic structure reform, land system reform, land integrated consolidation, and solutions for issues concerning agriculture, rural areas, and farmers after land consolidation, this paper attempts to think comprehensively and rationally about rural land integrated consolidation. It proposes that land reform is the cornerstone of deepening social and economic reform; rural land integrated consolidation is an important way of land reform, and society must make necessary adjustments to the current land management system and solve issues concerning agriculture, rural areas, and farmers after rural land integrated consolidation.Finally, this paper puts forward corresponding countermeasures and advice on strengthening planning and management, building decision-making mechanisms, establishing specific funds, perfecting system of property rights and the legal system, rationalizing income distribution relationship, diversifying main-led and supporting system construction, and so on.This article's standpoint is rural development, and its principal line is land integrated consolidation is an internal need of rural development. The conclusion is that rural land integrated consolidation should be further advanced. However, the current land system needs reform and focus on solving issues concerning agriculture, rural areas, and farmers after rural land integrated consolidation. The author(s) believe(s) that rural land integrated consolidation is the inevitable choice for land resources management reform to adapt to the requirements of China's sustainable development, which can promote social development in rural areas and achieve the purpose of consolidation of the rural regime. The points mentioned above are novel.
