Research On Ecological Compensation For Returning Farmland To Forest Based On Farmers’ Compensation Intention

With the implementation of the project of returning agricultural land to forest keep going,the state has made remarkable achievements mainly in three aspects:the significant increase of forest area and the preservation rate are at a high level;effectively control the soil erosion and other environmental problems;The income of the farmers who have returned to farming is increasing and their basic life is guaranteed.However,because this back-to-forest project will force farmers to convert their agricultural farmland into low-yielding forest land,it will affect the income of the farmers involved which results in some farmers to carry out deforestation and re-cultivation,regardless of the conservation of cultivated land and other practical problems.Therefore,how to consolidate the outstanding achievements of the project of returning agricultural land to forest,perfect the existing ecological compensation policy of returning agricultural land to forest,so that farmers are encouraged not to carry out deforestation and other negative effects of this back-to-forest project is an urgent problem to be studied.This paper will elaborate on the content of the ecological compensation for the return agricultural land to forest projects and analyze the existing problems from the current situation.This paper will discuss the impaction of farmers’ willingness to pay for the project of returning agricultural land to forest based on the actual situation in the study area,and use the SVM linear classification model with Python Sklearn platform to finish the analysis from the characteristics of farmers’ family,the characteristics of farmers’ arable land,The characteristics of back-to-forest project’s participation and selected 15 variables of that to study the influence factors of farmers’ willingness to be compensated.Project results show that:Firstly,there is a current problem of ecological compensation for the returning agricultural land to forest in three aspects:(1)the source of compensation funds is single,there is no better use of social resources to enrich the compensation subject;(2)because local government lacks compensation and not actually implemented the project to the included compensation object,it affects the effect of the project returning to the forest(3)The compensation standard is not flexible,there is no corresponding correct policy to implement the differential compensation,which will result in the imbalance of policy benefits.Secondly,the willingness of farmers to pay will affect the back-to-forest project,when farmers are willing to pay higher,farmers support the return of farmland to forest projects,which will help to return to the forest project.When farmers are less willing to pay,it is easy for them to re-cultivate and unprotection of agricultural land,which leads to an increase in the maintenance cost of the government and affects the effectiveness of the project of returning agricultural land to forest.Thirdly,the basic analysis shows that the factors affecting the willingness of farmers to be compensated are cadres staus,family population,education level,non-agricultural production employment,living consumption amount,the acres area to back to the forest project,the income of back to the forest project.Based on the data from the field survey and basic analysis,the results will put forward targeted suggestions and countermeasures:promoting the reform of the agricultural industry,establishing a new type of professional farmers system,integrating the compensation,putting the local government as the main body,carrying out investment or new industry development according to local conditions,improving the relevant forestry policies,encouraging farmers to invest in forestry production and reduce their dependence on agricultural land.
