Cultivated land is the basic resource and condition for human survival. 2 1 century, the population is increasing, the cultivated land is decreasing, and the people's living standards are improving. To maintain the sustainable development of agriculture, we must first ensure the quantity and quality of cultivated land. According to the incomplete statistics of UNESCO and FAO, the world's land area is about 6543.8+829 million hectares, and the per capita cultivated land is 0.26 hectares.
As of 2019,65438+February 3 1, the cultivated land in China is 1278 19000 hectares (19 17927900 mu). Commonly used cultivated land: refers to the land that is specially planted with crops and cultivated frequently and can be harvested normally. Including basic farmland with good land conditions and available arable land with poor land conditions that can be harvested normally without destroying the ecological environment. As a basic and valuable land resource in China, commonly used cultivated land is strictly protected by China's Land Law, and no individual or unit may occupy it without approval.
Temporary cultivated land: also known as "supporting farmland", refers to the land that is temporarily reclaimed to grow crops outside the commonly used cultivated land and cannot be harvested normally. According to the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Soil and Water Conservation, the steep slopes where crops are planted with a slope of more than 25 degrees should gradually return farmland to forests and grasslands, and the land that is easy to cause soil erosion and desertification in other places should gradually return farmland to forests. Therefore, we can also call this part of temporary cultivated land as temporary cultivated land to be retired.
The state practices a compensation system for the occupation of cultivated land. Non-agricultural construction approved the occupation of cultivated land, in accordance with the principle of "how much is occupied, how much is cultivated", the unit occupying cultivated land is responsible for reclaiming cultivated land equivalent to the quantity and quality of cultivated land occupied; If there are no conditions for reclamation or the cultivated land does not meet the requirements, the cultivated land reclamation fee shall be paid in accordance with the provisions of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government, which shall be used exclusively for reclamation of new cultivated land.
