Cultivated land index

Legal analysis: The Bureau of Land and Resources is responsible for the unified coordination and implementation of the index of "occupation and compensation balance" of cultivated land. At the beginning of each year, the Municipal Bureau of Land and Resources analyzes and forecasts the number of non-agricultural cultivated land occupied by cities and districts, and negotiates with the Municipal Finance Bureau and counties (cities) to determine the adjustment price of cultivated land "occupation and compensation balance" index. After the approval of the municipal government, the indicators and required plans for the "balance of occupation and compensation" of cultivated land will be issued to all districts, and an agreement on reclamation projects will be signed with relevant counties (cities). The balance of cultivated land occupation and compensation refers to how much cultivated land is occupied by construction, and how much cultivated land with the same quantity and quality should be supplemented by local people's governments. The occupying unit shall be responsible for reclaiming cultivated land corresponding to the quantity and quality of cultivated land occupied; If there are no conditions for reclamation, land reclamation fees shall be paid in accordance with the law, which shall be used exclusively for reclamation of new cultivated land. The balance of cultivated land occupation and compensation is the legal obligation of units and individuals occupying cultivated land.

Legal basis: Article 14 of the People's Republic of China (PRC) Rural Revitalization Promotion Law, the state establishes a classified management system for agricultural land, strictly protects cultivated land, strictly controls the conversion of agricultural land into construction land, and strictly controls the conversion of cultivated land into other types of agricultural land such as forest land and garden land. The people's governments of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government shall take measures to ensure that the total amount of cultivated land is not reduced and the quality is improved. The state implements a permanent protection system for basic farmland, builds functional zones for grain production and production protection zones for important agricultural products, and builds and protects high-standard farmland. Local people's governments at all levels should promote rural land consolidation and scientific and safe utilization of agricultural land, strengthen the construction of infrastructure such as farmland water conservancy and improve agricultural production conditions.
