“…built an integrated framework to distinguish the corresponding degrees of planning effectiveness. They emphasized that non-conforming outcomes may be guided by planning goals and hence contribute to realizing them [7]. The qualitative method cannot give a direct causality to how zoning-land use mismatch takes place.…”

“…In addition, existing research has a relatively simple method for judging the conformity of planning implementation results. However, when China controls the expansion of construction land, it adopts the combination of top-down quota control and delineation of growth control zones [5,7,14]. Therefore, when discriminating whether the implementation result of planning belongs to non-conformance, the following are necessary: (1) discriminating whether the actual land use is in the scope of planning permission in spatial position, and (2) further discussing whether its land use has planning permission even beyond the scope of planning, that is, the planning reservation newly added land development quota.…”

“…The land-use plan is a basic policy tool to allocate land resources. Especially in China, the general land use plan gradually plays a critical role in controlling the built-up land expansion by delimiting growth boundaries or zoning areas [5][6][7][8][9].…”

“…Rapid socio-economic changes have a significant impact on the effect of planning implementation, and this impact is particularly evident in China [6,12]. In the context of the transition period, China's spatial planning and implementation are also affected by the transition from the planned to the market economy [7,13,14]. China has experienced a period of rapid development since the reform and opening up in 1978 [15].…”

“…The site selection for land development becomes increasingly difficult to predict for planning in the context of rapid urbanization, and a number of organizations or individuals are involved. Furthermore, the impact of planning on space development is weakened [7]. Planning may conflict with the need of economic development when it fails to effectively solve practical problems [21].…”

A land-use plan is a core policy tool to curb excessive non-agriculturalization of agricultural land. The effect of plan implementation can affect sustainable land use and regional development. Empirical studies have shown that land development commonly and frequently fails to conform to land-use plans. However, neither qualitative nor quantitative studies are conducted to comprehensively explore the reasons for zoning-land use mismatch. To help bridge this gap, this study explored to what extent a plan has been implemented and what factors have affected zoning-land use mismatch. A new deviation discriminant framework of planning implementation was presented. Moreover, the logistics model was applied to discuss which factors substantially affect the zoning-land use mismatch. The plan implementation results were divided into the conformed, exceeded and unused areas. The general land-use plan failed in its spatial control over rural settlements and other built-up lands, with both more than 90% of the newly added construction land beyond zoning. In addition, the newly added construction land of rural settlements, other built-up lands, and transportation lands all exceeded the quota control. Furthermore, the physical factors of distance from the river, the elevation, the slope and the level, and the social-economic factors of the gross domestic product, the fiscal revenue, the fixed assets investments, and the rank of town have prominent effects on zoning-land use mismatch. Enhancing the flexibility of the land-use plan and strengthening the relationship between planning quotas and spatial zoning in the future are necessary to promote the effect of plan implementation.
