Establishment Of The Evaluation System On The Living Level Of Land-lost Farmer

Currently, our country is on the rapidly developing stage of industrialization and urbanization, which is the critical period of socialist modernization. Meanwhile, the rising industrial scale and the expansion of urban construction make it increase each year that agricultural land is changed into non-agricultural land. However, it causes a number of farmers to lose their land, making them become land-lost farmers. With the process of industrialization and urbanization, the number of the farmers is increasing. Because of the long-term existence of urban-urban dual structure, the unreasonableness of the existing land requisition compensation system, the problem of land-lost farmers has become a constraint for economic development and social stability of the important factors. Also, it is the focus that our country and academics pay attention to. There’s no denying that peasants have poor quality and backward ideas contribute to this. The key to solving the problem is that their living standard must be improved and their future life must be safeguarded. But it still lacks a set of complete evaluation standard and system to objective evaluate the land-lost farmers’ living level. This makes the national polices in land expropriation hard to get conscientiously implement in practical work. As a result, it is significant to establish the evaluation system for land-lost farmers and analyze their living level in the background of accelerating the building of new socialist countryside, building a harmonious society and sustainable development.This paper is based on many theories about land-lost farmers’ living level and some related studies at home and abroad. It also establishes the evaluation system for land-lost farmers. And through the survey of part of land-lost farmers in Liaoning Province, it examines the evaluation system of their living level. Combined with the comparative analysis of assessment of land-lost farmers’ living level in Liaoning Province before and after, the paper proposes some ways to improve the living level of land-lost farmers. It also provides some strong theoretical issues and policy support.First of all, on the basis of studying related papers, and reviewing the concept of living standard, assessment approach, the connotation of the land-lost famers and the compensation for lost-land, it strictly defined the connotation of the concept of the farmers. Meanwhile, it lays a solid theoretical foundation for further study.Secondly, under the guidance of Maslow’s hierarchy of need and land-lost farmers’ living level connotation, it establishes the index of land-lost farmers’living level, including two One Grade Index, five Two Grade Index and 13 Three Grade Index. Using AHP and Delphi, it calculates index weight to establish the evaluation system of land-lost farmers’ living level. Thirdly, according to the practical situation of recent land in Liaoning Province, do some surveys about land-lost farmers by using participatory rural assessment method. The results show that all the indexes can better reflect the land-lost farmers living level. The evaluation method is scientific and feasible. Through the comparison and analysis of evaluation index, it shows that 76% of land-lost farmers’living level do not reduce, even improve, and other 24% of land-lost farmers’living level flat or slightly lower. The results reflect that the land-lost farmers’living level do not reduce in short term, but in long term, they lack long-term livelihood guarantee due to their own factors. It also because of the land compensation and social security system are not perfect.Lastly, on the basis of analysis of their life with the practical problems, it proposes that we should strictly control the quantity of the land, improve the compensation system, raise the awareness, promote the social security system, speed the economic development of countryside. The goal is to establish the long-term monitoring mechanism to improve the land-lost farmer’s living.
