Forest right reform attempts from property right, in maintain the premise ofcollective forest land, through clarifying the ownership of trees and the use right ofwoodland, and the ownership of forest and forest land use rights in different formsinto single door, couplet door, village collective, village groups and other economicentities. Through the implementation of forest rights, the main purpose of a new roundof collective forest tenure reform policy design plan to give full play to theconfiguration of the forest rights, incentives, external and internal function, inspire theenthusiasm of the main camp forest of forestry management, in order to ease thedomestic timber supply and demand tensions, improve the ecological environmentand increase the income of foresters forestry, in order to achieve the win-win situationof the development of forestry, forest stability, farmers' income.Collective forest rightreform forms different allocation of property rights, thus forming a different businessmodel. After forest changing, a single household management and couplet dooroperating forms as two kinds of important management pattern. So why did it formthese two kinds of management mode? Which model of business investment performsbetter? Which factor Influence two types of business model? The research ondeepening collective forest right reform has important guiding role, but also enrichand develop the collective forest right system reform theory research.According to the above problems, research is divided into three parts. First,research a single household management mode. Through defining the foresters, singlefamily business, couplet door management, forestry investment,and on the basis ofconcept of this single door operating mechanism of the formation of the foundation,through a participatory research, descriptive statistics and regression analysis, this partempirically study on effects of single households operating input factors. Theempirical results show that the farmers' age, occupation, family population, otherhousehold income of forestry, whether family members to hold the position of villagecadre, forest land area, the number of plots, whether to join the forestry cooperativeorganizations and whether there is a forest rights disputes have significant influence tofarmer forestry investment. The factors such as the head of the household educationlevel, income, timber forest, household savings and whether or not to join the forestinsurance, had no significant effect on forestry investment. The empirical results showthat clear property right is a necessary but not sufficient condition to investment inforestry, only the clear forest right can increase forestry investment. But as a result offorestry investment has high investment, long life cycle management, big operationalrisk, long investment recovery period characteristics, so farmer must meet otherconditions and then can increase forestry investment. Therefore, only emphasizing theclear forest right does not guarantee farmers to increase their investment in forestry.The second, research on combined operation model. This part claims jointoperation models of the formation mechanism from the angle of transaction cost,points out that the joint operation saves transaction cost while increasing couplet dooroperation coordination cost. Through the analysis frame based on logic of collectiveaction, using descriptive statistics analysis method from the three dimensions namelycouplet door, couplet door member organization member number trust, joint leader selective incentives and other factors, empirical study on effects of couplet door inputfactors. The empirical results show that the joint household operations have thefollowing characteristics: firstly, with the small number of couplet door, the coupletdoor member less than5operate the survey sample of86.08%. Secondly, couplet doormember relation to friends, neighbors, relatives, mainly formed with the blood, kin,geographic, industry predestined relationship. The joint organization of the investmentdecision is democracy and transparency. Although the majority of households amongmembers have no history of cooperation, but the trust degree between the jointmembers is high, the vast majority of couplet door member trust other members andthey think the individual should trust each other. Third, the joint leaders assumecouplet door most of the organization's operation coordination costs, but the jointleaders did not receive a fixed payment, and did not obtain office expenses, telephonesubsidies and other economic selective excitation. But the joint leaders won reputation,fame and other social selective excitation. This research thinks the factors such assmall number of couplet door members, high trust degree between the members,couplet door organization leaders getting selective incentive factor are important tothe couplet door operating mode of forestry investment high.The last, according to the comparison and analysis of the family business modeland joint management mode of forestry investment structure and on the basis of thetotal, from property right theory and collective logical perspective, the research pointsout the reason why the joint mode of operation invest higher than family managementmode. Combining the forestry production characteristic, this study points out, coupletdoor organizations can better avoid forestry management encountered in the lack offunds, lack of labor, constraint forest land. Therefore, the incentive effect of coupletdoor to operate is higher.Through the above the main content of the research and analysis, this researchgives policy suggestions to increase forestry investment and further deepen the reformof collective forest rights, from the part of government, village, farmer collectiveproposes incentive farmers.
