Four Contradictions of Cultivated Land Quantity

As the authoritative data of land released to the society, the annual data of land change survey has been widely concerned by the society. The annual data of 20 1 1 show that the four major contradictions faced by China's cultivated land protection must be faced squarely. In addition, as a concrete reflection of extensive economic's growth model, these contradictions have reached the point where they must be resolved.

First of all, we should see that although the total amount of cultivated land in China is basically stable, the difficulty of supplementing cultivated land in individual provinces cannot be ignored. The realization of "nine consecutive increases" in grain reflects the support of cultivated land protection. The data show that in 2009, 20 10 and 2010/year, the cultivated land area in China remained above18.24 million mu for three consecutive years, with a net decrease of 490,000 mu in 201kloc-0/year. At the same time, however, it should be noted that the reserve resources of cultivated land in the municipalities directly under the central government and individual provinces in the eastern coastal areas are almost exhausted, and it is difficult to implement the balance of cultivated land occupation and compensation, and it is difficult for individual provinces and cities to fully implement the balance of cultivated land occupation and compensation.

Secondly, despite the strong guarantee of construction land, the contradiction between land supply and demand in China is still outstanding. From the data of 20 1 1 land change survey, it can be seen that the land and resources system has made great efforts to cooperate with the national macro-control and construction land security, effectively ensuring the necessary land demand for stable growth, structural adjustment and benefiting people's livelihood. 20 1 1 year, the national * * * arranged 8.3 million mu of new construction land planning indicators, and arranged 900,000 mu of pilot indicators linked to the increase and decrease of urban and rural construction land, which were specially used to optimize land use structure, promote coordinated urban and rural development and build new countryside. 20 1 1 Land use approval is controlled within the planned target scale. However, 20 1 1 is the first year to implement the Twelfth Five-Year Plan. At the same time, in order to actively respond to the financial crisis, all localities have generally increased investment in construction and correspondingly expanded land demand, and the contradiction between supply and demand is still outstanding.

At the same time, it must be clear that although the effect of clearing idle land is obvious, there is still room for tapping potential in land use in China. 20 1 1, all localities actively took measures to clean up idle land and achieved remarkable results. The change survey shows that the construction area of unused construction land approved in previous years reached 1 1 10,000 mu, an increase of10.022 million mu over the previous year. At the same time, the policy of encouraging the development and utilization of unused land such as low mountains, gentle slopes and wasteland has also achieved results. In the whole year, 6.5438+0.909 million mu of unused land was built and utilized, effectively alleviating the pressure of occupying cultivated land for construction. However, the data also show that 20 1 1, 1.846 million mu of land is newly approved construction land, accounting for 22. 1% of the approved new construction land, indicating that the approved unused land still has great potential.

Finally, it must be admitted that although the standardization level of land use in China is constantly improving, the situation of rural land being built before approval reflects that the deep-seated system reform problem can not be avoided. The change survey shows that the unapproved pre-construction area in 20 1 1 year is 1.725 million mu, which is 303,000 mu less than that in the previous year, and the proportion of new construction land has decreased from 19.0% in the previous year to17. However, with the decline of illegal land use in cities and key projects, the problem of unapproved construction in villages and towns is prominent. According to the survey, among the 20 1 1 unapproved pre-construction areas, towns and villages still reach 92 1 10,000 mu, and the proportion has increased from 42.6% in the previous year to 53.4%. We must face up to the fact that, while the resident population in rural areas in China continues to decrease, the per capita construction land area in rural areas continues to expand, which shows that the dual pattern of urban and rural areas in China, especially the urbanization model of "as long as rural land is concerned, regardless of rural people", has indeed reached an unsustainable level.
