- Abstract:
-
Fragile ecological environment and poverty of farmers have restricted the sustainable development of northwestern Shanxi. In recent years, the phenomenon of urbanization farmers is becoming acute, accompanying the emergence of land transfer. The transfer of land affects the macroscopic ecological environment by influencing the behavior of abandoning sloping lands of individuals. From the perspective of land transfer, using binary logistics and tobit methods, we empirically estimated the impact of land transfer, characteristics of the head of household, labor workers, family characteristics and features of arable land on farmers’ abandoning sloping lands. The result showed that transferring land significantly increased the possibility and the number of farmers’ abandoning sloping lands and had the significant promoting effect on the improvement of the ecological environment; furthermore, temporary working and its income, land fragmentation characteristics were the important factors influencing the improvement of ecological environment in northwestern Shanxi. In the background of ‘Internet plus’, it has the positive role in the improvement of ecological environment in northwestern Shanxi to actively improve the platform of farmland transfer relying on the Internet and to promote land circulation in the ecological fragile area.
