**Planning: Important changes in rural homesteads in 2023, farmers need to know!
Introduction: The rural homestead reform in 2023 will bring about significant changes, which is a topic of great concern to farmers. This article will classify the 5 major new changes in rural homestead reform in 2023, and introduce and expand them in detail. These changes include the pilot project of paid use of homesteads, paid withdrawal, revitalization of rural homesteads, speeding up the issuance of certificates for confirming rights, and prohibiting the illegal resumption of homesteads obtained by villagers in accordance with the law. Through these reform measures, we can better understand and recognize the future direction of rural homestead reform.
Pilot project for the paid use of rural estates.
Rural homesteads"One house, one house"In the process of implementing the system, there are some problems, such as the existence of some rural areas"One house, one house"with"One house, one household"The phenomenon of being too prescriptive. In order to solve this problem, pilot areas across the country have begun to trial the policy of paid use of rural homesteads. Specifically, farmers who use homestead land in excess of the local area need to pay a certain fee. In Chuanshanping County, Miluo City, Yueyang City, Hunan Province, for example, the county has set different charging standards for different areas that exceed the standard, ranging from 8 yuan to 15 yuan per square meter. This pilot policy of paid use provides farmers with clearer and fairer rules for farm use, which helps to solve the problem of unequal distribution of rural farms and surpluses.
Pilot project for paid removal of rural properties.
With the massive outflow of rural population, the problem of idle rural homesteads is becoming increasingly serious. In order to make effective use of these idle homesteads, the rural homestead reform has explored a way to withdraw with compensation. That is to say, after the peasants settle in the city, they can return the homestead land in the village to the village collective and receive corresponding economic compensation. The implementation of this policy is conducive to revitalizing the idle homestead resources in rural areas and promoting rural land circulation and industrial development. For example, Wuyi County, Jinhua City, Zhejiang Province, stipulates that villagers who are willing to give up their property can receive a compensation of 40,000 yuan per mu in addition to a compensation of 350,000 yuan per mu.
Encourage the revitalization of residential land in rural areas.
While piloting paid use and withdrawal, the state also encourages the revitalization of estates in rural areas. Farmers can use idle estates to develop rural industries through self-management or equity participation. For example, cooperation in rural agricultural tourism, the opening of rural handicraft shops, the development of characteristic rural tourism and rural e-commerce, etc. This will not only promote the development of the rural economy, but also provide farmers with more opportunities to increase their income. Initiatives to revitalize rural settlements will help improve the quality of life of rural residents and promote sustainable growth in farmers' incomes.
Accelerate the identification and certification of rural residential land.
Whether it is the revitalization of rural homesteads, or the withdrawal and paid use of homesteads, it is necessary to ensure the clarity of land property rights and the allocation of property rights. Because of this, Document No. 1 of 2023 puts forward the goal of accelerating the issuance of certificates and the integration of rural homestead rights. This measure not only reduces rural disputes and maintains the stability of rural order, but also ensures that farmers can enjoy the dividends of rural homestead reform. For example, after the right is confirmed, farmers can use the real estate for mortgage loans to facilitate transfer, etc., providing more opportunities for rural residents to obtain financing and entrepreneurial development.
It is forbidden to illegally repossess residential land acquired by residents in accordance with the law.
In order to protect the legitimate rights and interests of peasants' homesteads, peasants' homesteads acquired in accordance with the law must not be illegally recovered. This principle is clearly stipulated in the Interim Measures for the Management of Rural Homesteads issued by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs in November 2022. However, if a farmer uses the homestead land in violation of the regulations, such as being idle for a long time or for illegal purposes, the village organization has the right to take back the homestead land used in violation of the regulations. For example, if a farmer's homestead land is left idle for a long time or used for illegal purposes, such as building a factory, the village-level organization has the right to take back the illegal homestead land in accordance with the law. This measure guarantees the legal use of farms and the balance between farmers' rights and interests, and maintains fairness, justice and social order.
Summary: The reform of rural homesteads will usher in major changes in 2023, and we expect five major changes, including the pilot of paid use of homesteads, paid withdrawal, revitalization of homesteads, confirmation of rights and issuance of certificates, and prohibition of illegal repossession. The implementation of these policies will provide farmers with a fairer and more stable environment for the use of homesteads, and promote the optimal allocation of rural resources and sustainable economic development. However, rural homestead reform still faces some challenges, such as policy implementation effect supervision and institutional innovation. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the progress of rural homestead reform, constantly improve and optimize the corresponding policies and measures, and create better development opportunities and conditions for farmers.
