“…The use of chemicals in agriculture, the management of food waste, and the carbon footprint of food transportation are just a few examples of how food safety and environmental health are deeply intertwined. The Interconnectedness of Food Safety and Environmental Health," we will explore how sustainable practices in food production can not only ensure safer food but also contribute to a healthier environment [7][8][9][10]. We will examine the roles of government policies, industry standards, and individual choices in shaping a world where food safety and environmental protection go hand in hand.…”

“…However, only limited changes have been observed in the trend of reducing cultivated land resources, with a net reduction of 7.53 million hectares in cultivated land observed between 2009 and 2019 and a net decrease of 2.27 million hectares observed around big cities [1]. Although the report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) reiterated that 'the boundary of 1.8 billion acres of cultivated land should be firmly guarded', the constructed comprehensive value accounting system developed for cultivated land remains imperfect; furthermore, the social, ecological, and cultural values of cultivated land have not been clarified, which has led to a critical underestimation of the true value of cultivated land and the crude utilisation of the accounting system [5,6]. The National Fourteenth Five-Year Plan and the Outline of Vision 2035 were proposed to 'improve the property rights system of natural resource assets and laws and regulations'.…”

Accounting for the Logic and Spatiotemporal Evolution of the Comprehensive Value of Cultivated Land around Big Cities: Empirical Evidence Based on 35 Counties in the Hefei Metropolitan Area

Exploring the value of cultivated land resources around big cities is an important prerequisite for when realizing the “trinity” of cultivated land protection in terms of quantity, quality, and ecology. At present, the value of cultivated land resources faces the problem of having a low comparative efficiency of economic output, inadequate visualisation of asset value, and serious undervaluation. The manifestation of social, ecological, and cultural values in cultivated land plays an important role in accurately calculating the value of cultivated land. Therefore, this study attempted to clarify the composition and account for the logic of the comprehensive value of cultivated land around big cities. Taking the Hefei metropolitan area as an example, we used mathematical modeling and geostatistical analysis to measure the integrated value of cultivated land around big cities from 2010 to 2020 and analyse the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics and influencing factors. The results revealed a 2:7:1 ratio of economic, social, ecological, and cultural values for cultivated land in the metropolitan area. The comprehensive value of cultivated land was higher in 2020 than in 2010, was approximately 7.7 times the current compensation standard, and was significantly affected by the natural geography, economic development, cultivated land conditions, and protection policies. Furthermore, the comprehensive value showed spatial differentiation characteristics of ‘high in the east and south and low in the west and north’, and a spatial agglomeration effect was evident in some areas. A significant increase was observed in the social value of cultivated land, followed by an increase in the ecological and cultural values, whereas a slow downward trend was observed for the economic value. The economic value of cultivated land around big cities showed a downward trend, whereas the social, ecological, and cultural values showed upward trends. In the future, differentiated policy tools should be adopted based on the spatial heterogeneity of the comprehensive value of cultivated land in the Hefei metropolitan area to enhance their comprehensive value. In addition, scientific and reasonable compensation standards should be established, and high-quality agricultural development with the high-level protection of cultivated land should be promoted in metropolitan areas.

“…Several other countries of the European Union, for example Belgium, France, the Czech Republic, and Italy, have installed pre-purchase rights for farmers, who get an advantage for acquiring land for food production (Ciaian et al 2012). Sweden has installed Swedish county agricultural boards, which regulate the land market on a local level (Lapping & Forster 1982;Öhlund et al 2020). Several other countries have established even stronger farmland market regulation In India, stabilization policies active since 1991 are explicitly addressing the freedom of agricultural workers from landlordism.…”

In the recent decades, the German farmland marked faced enormous price increases. Those price increases caused intensive research. Among others, three streams of thought were especially in focus: farmland price determinants, the activities of nonagricultural investors and farmland market regulation. This thesis aims to contribute to those research streams within four cumulative research studies. The first study addresses the research stream concerning price determinants and revisits the price determinant soil quality within a panel cointegration regression approach. It addresses the research aims (1) to estimate the relative farmland price difference caused by soil quality over time and (2) to determine whether this relative price difference describes a long-run relationship over time. Therefore, aggregated farmland price time series within Germany from 1991 to 2020 have been used. The results of the study suggest that soil quality cause a significant relative farmland price difference over time. Furthermore, the aggregated time series within soil quality intervals follow a significant long-run relationship which indicates that the relative price share determined by soil quality is stable over time. The second contribution within this thesis addresses price determinants as well. Within a replication study of Ritter et al. (2020; Land Use Policy, DOI: j.landusepol.2020.104771), the price determinant parcel size has been analyzed with two research aims: (3) to extend the geographical scope, which allows insights into regional differences in the price structure for farmland and (4) to evaluate the role of assumptions regarding the functional form for the sizeprice relationship. Recent research concerning the effect of parcel sizes on farmland prices showed ambiguous results. Therefore, the study of Ritter et al. ( 2020) had investigated the nonlinear form of the farmland size-price relationship for the German federal state Saxony-Anhalt with a non-parametric and a parametric approach. Within the replication study included in this thesis, the approach of Ritter et al. ( 2020) has been verified for Saxony-Anhalt and extended for the two German federal states Brandenburg and Lower Saxony. The results of the replication confirm the nonlinear form of the farmland size-price relationship. They also show that the functional form of this relationship differs between the three federal states and therefore probably across larger geographical regions in general. Furthermore, the form for grassland suggests different implications. Within the third study, the research stream nonagricultural investors is addressed more in detail. The engagement of nonagricultural investors is of rising V interest during the last decades, however, their motives to buy farmland are barely investigated.To address the question, a discrete choice experiment has been conducted in 2021 with 639 participants across Germany. The research goal of the study is an (5) investigation, whether the four groups of factors key investment information, subjective kn...
