“…Further, some people propose that land fragmentation increases the input cost of fertilisers and pesticides [12,13], reducing the rural labour emigration [14] while also reducing yields and household income [15][16][17][18]. Due to a series of negative effects induced by LF, many scholars believe that land transfer [19] and consolidation [20] should be accelerated to promote large-scale land production.…”

Land Use Transitions and Farm Performance in China: A Perspective of Land Fragmentation

Land fragmentation (LF) is widespread worldwide and affects farmers’ decision-making and, thus, farm performance. We used detailed household survey data at the crop level from ten provinces in China to construct four LF indicators and six farm performance indicators. We ran a set of regression models using OLS methods to analyse the relationship between LF and farm performance. The results showed that (1) LF increased the input of production material and labour costs; (2) LF reduced farmers’ purchasing of mechanical services and the efficiency of ploughing; and (3) LF may increase technical efficiency (this result, however, was not sufficiently robust and had no effect on yield). Generally speaking, LF was negatively related to farm performance. To improve farm performance, it is recommended that decision-makers speed up land transfer and land consolidation, stabilise land property rights, establish land-transfer intermediary organisations and promote large-scale production.

“…In general, collective rural land must first be expropriated by the state before its use rights can be altered and sold in the conveyance market. Reforms in "land transfer" (tudi liuzhuan 土地流轉) have introduced new market mechanisms for rural collectives and households to transfer their collective land usage rights to external parties (Trappel 2016;Kan 2021). For example, recently a tripartite rights system has been put in place to further clarify how collectives and households can transfer land use rights on farmland to commercial operators while respectively retaining ownership and contract rights.…”

“…For example, recently a tripartite rights system has been put in place to further clarify how collectives and households can transfer land use rights on farmland to commercial operators while respectively retaining ownership and contract rights. The main purpose of these reforms and the emerging land market seems to facilitate the consolidation of land in the hands of large-scale agricultural operators and new corporate actors such as tourism and hospitality companies (Trappel 2016;Andreas and Zhan 2016;Kan 2021).…”

“…China, as the world's largest developing country, has the largest number of rural villages, with about 45.23% of its total population were living in rural areas. Recent studies about rural planning are mainly about the rural landscape [22], architecture style, rural revitalization [23,24], rural tourism [25], etc. Exploring rural planning from the perspective of the thermal environment has never been given attention, and is the focus of this paper.…”

Architectural Simulations on Spatio-Temporal Changes of Settlement Outdoor Thermal Environment in Guanzhong Area, China

This paper aims to provide data support for rural sustainable development through analyzing the spatio-temporal characteristics of the interactions of the outdoor thermal environment. The ordinary and representative rural settlements in the Guanzhong area were selected to analyze the dynamic process of the rural thermal environment through field measurements and numerical simulations. RMSE (root mean square error) and MAPE (mean absolute percentage) were used to verify the numerical simulation model, and physiological equivalent temperature (PET) was used to evaluate the outdoor thermal environment. Results show that the ENVI-met model reliably predicts the thermal environment of a rural settlement, as the air temperature and relative humidity values range of the RMSE and MAPE were 0.85–1.79 and 2.04–5.11%, respectively. Moreover, the air temperature rose by 3.08% and relative humidity dropped by 4.42% from 2003 to 2018 as the amount of artificial surfaces increased by 35.4% and the PET index gradually increased by 27.43% at daytime and 34.03% at nighttime. Furthermore, trees could improve the outdoor thermal environment significantly, mainly because the average air temperature decreased by 3.6% and relative humidity increased by 8%, and the PET index decreased by 12.4% and 13.1%, respectively, for daytime and nighttime. This case study is representative of rural settlements in the Guanzhong plain, and thus is an appeal to rural planners to pay attention to the thermal environment issues caused by increased artificial underlay surfaces and to focus on trees in rural areas.
