The circulation of collective forest rights is emerging things since a new round of collective forest right system reform, which is one of the important content to carry out the disposition, it has a positive role in promoting moderate scale management of forestry, the forestry modernization, and increasing the income of forest farmers. The reform of collective forest right system promotes the circulation of collective forest rights, but the forest right circulation market conditions are not mature, the irregularities of forest right circulation are serious. They have become the focuses that whether the current forest rights circulation system can meet the needs of the circulation, how to promote the standardization and of marketization of the forest right circulation.In order to improve the system of forest right circulation and regulate the circulation of forest right, based on analysis of the circulation of farmers, this paper embarks from the system present situation and the reality situation to find out the problems which need to be improved, and puts forward feasible policy suggestions to perfect the macro forest rights circulation system. In concrete terms, at the macro level, this paper concludes the main content of forest right transfer system and the existence questions by using literature research. At the micro level, applying questionnaire method and quantitative analysis method, based on 4 Counties (Districts) of Collective Forest Rights Reform Pioneer in Sichuan about 212 farmer households survey data, this paper thoroughly analyses。 The characteristics of the farmers forest right transfer and into, and explores the forest right circulation problems in practice, this papers make a correlation analysis of forest rights circulation institutional factors and forest right circulation scale by adopting the method of econometric analysis.The main conclusions of this paper are as follows:(1) In spite of the forest rights circulation system constantly improve, but there are still institutional defects, which display in the fuzzy rules of subjects of circulation and their rights and obligations, the lack of a clear instructions of remaining contract period, and the ignorance of the value of forestry ecological benefits.(2)The behavioral characteristics of farmers forest right transfer and into are obvious. As follows:the number of the farmers who turn the forest right out is more than the number of farmers who flow into the forest right, however, the area of forest transferring is less than flowing into. Village cadres family forest circulation frequency is higher than the non-village cadres family. Rent is the most commonly used way of circulation. Farmers organization degree is not high. Village cadres is the bridge between owners and scattered farmers, who promotes the circulation of collective forest rights. The main reasons of forest right transfer and into are the lack of labor, reasonable transfering price, managing forest land is profitable, the area is large. Farmers think, due to the government’s policy, rural property rights exchange promotes forest right circulation specification and transfer prices tend to be more reasonable. Farmers’intention of forest circulation through rural property rights exchange is high.(3)The irregularities of forest right circulation are serious. It’s inconsistent with the actual content rights registry, forest Property Circulation procedures are not standard. The pricing mechanism is not standardized lacks forest resources assets evaluation. Transfer deadline does not match with forestry management cycle, Besides forest right circulation of information asymmetry, Most farmers do not understand policy, which leads to farmers at a disadvantage position in the negotiation.(4) Forest rights circulation institutional factors and forest right circulation scale correlation is high. By Kendall and Spearman correlation coefficient of empirical analysis, it is concluded that significant influence factors of flowing out of the forest are village cadres, determining the property and issuing certificate, understanding of the forest land circulation policy, the determination of prices, Significant influence factors of flowing into the forest are village cadres interference of forest rights circulation, transferring registration, changing the ownership,understanding of forest right transfer policy.According to the analysis conclusion, This paper puts forward policy suggestions from the following several aspects:(1)To clear the main subject of forest right circulation. (2)To explore the feasible method of forest resource asset appraisal. (3)To strengthen the construction of forest right information. (4)To speed up the construction of the forest right exchange, encouraging forest rights circulation by forest right exchange.
