Although farmers do not have the ownership of farmland in China

the agricultural land is irreplaceable in the traditional farmers’hearts

whether as a productive factor or the last subsistence guarantee for farmers. From the way of circulation

subcontracting is the primary form. In this way

farmland has been continuously concentrated to master-hands of farming

and the proportion of farmers with moderate scale operation has increased significantly. This is fully in line with the “Schultz hypothesis”

that is

the principle of efficiency priority. From the process of rural land circulation

although the government provides strongly supports

it is still a long way to go for the formation of rural land circulation market

due to the small scale of cultivated land and the low level of economic development. From the perspective of village

affected by geographical location

historical reasons and other impacts

there are obvious regional differences between different villages

structure and quality of household farmland operation and the frequency and intensity of land circulation.
