A Research On Agricultural Land Acquisition During Early Stage Of Taiwan Urbanization

The early stage of Taiwan urbanization was during 20th century mid-1960s to early 1980s, during this time Taiwan was transformation from agricultural society to industrial society, followed by rapid development of cities, a large number of agricultural land was changed into other use, Government's Land acquisition is an important way to acquire land.Land acquisition by the Government on behalf of public power for private land is a mandatory, agricultural land acquisition beside general land acquisition requirements, but also had its own characteristics: Taiwan authorities set up various restrictions on agricultural land, Farmers could not change the way of use, poor farmers look agricultural land as "chicken ribs".I chose land acquisition in shulin,Taibei country as a case, because of: first of all Aberdeen is located in the Taiwan cities of Taipei County started urbanization earlier, the Taiwan Power Company for construction power transmission station of western part of Taipei County, decided to use QiangZaiLiao people's land, after a "routine" consultation, Taiwan Power Company citing the Taiwan authorities for the implementation of land acquisition and was approval led.Then thesis described resident's living conditions before land acquisition. The residents used to live on agriculture, in the 1950s, Shulin, by the entire Taiwan region's economic development, began to develop industry, especially the early 1960s the Shulin industrial zone was established, the town rely on rich timber resources, and formed a wood processing industry as the main characteristics of the region. The residents began to live as worker beside farmer.Land acquisition must compensation to landowners; it is principal contradiction in land acquisition. In this example, the landowners through petition, application, refused to enter the land even initiate proceedings to ask Government to raise the compensation price. During this process, the price gap between non-agricultural land and agricultural land was been reflected.The final chapter is about he resident's living condition after land acquisition. After land acquisition, most farmers accepted monetary compensation a considerable number of people move into urban areas, other people have not expanded the land to farm. QiangZaiLiao land acquisition is a miniature of agricultural land: farmers didn't want to be bound in the agricultural land, farmers hope to receive compensation for reasonableprice.QiangZaiLiao land acquisition is the miniature during early stage of Taiwan urbanization : the rapid development of cities, more and more agricultural land to be changed use, agricultural production and the profits compared to other industries lower, farmers engaged in agricultural production will reduce If compensation for reasonable prices, farmers do not oppose the implementation of land acquisition, land acquisition to take more of these farmers of the land, rather than giving the farmers the opportunity to choose the way of life.
