Abstract:

Whether the benefit of collective forestland usufruct transfer is reasonable or not, matters the own benefits of each side of forest property transfer and the effect of the forest tenure reform appendix solutions. With the underlying data and the theoretical model, the author made analysis of annual revenue of collective forestland usufruct transfer, which based on different site qualities in Shaowu from 2000 to 2011. Then, it found timber prices rising and the government’s tax reform was main reasons of the transfer revenue rising in theory. Results show that forestland using price was significantly lower than transfer revenue in theory in Minzheng [2005] No. 50 and South Commission [2007] 37 document. Besides, grassroots economic organizations could not share residual benefits of operation right with Farmers. To some extent, forest land pricing of Yanping government could be taken as a price reference for Shaowu and the government in formulating the transfer policy. At last, innovation of forestland usufruct transfer price formation mechanism was the inevitable choice of reasonable allocation of the equity interests of all dispute and profit sharing.
