Abstract
Based on the survey data of 201 farmer households in Ganzhou,Jiangxi province, this paper analyzed the characteristics of different types of farmer households and the behavior of land transfer. Through the establishment of Logistic model,this paper analyzed the main factors affecting the behavior of land transfer by different types of farmer households,including the characteristics of the head of household,the natural endowment of farmers,contracted land transfer characteristics and policy awareness. According to the occupation and income,201 farmer households could be divided into peasant households,part-time farmer households,non farmer households,accounting for 5%,60.2%,34.8% respectively. The age of the head of household and the number of family labor were the main factors that affect the transfer of land. Family income per capita was a key factor to consider by part-time farmer households to transfer land. The non farmer households were influenced by the number of family labor force,the distance from the central town,the cost of circulation and the transfer time. According to the characteristics of different types of farmers,land transfer behavior and its influencingfactors,it is an inevitable choice to make different policies to guide farmers' land transfer for protecting the land rights and interests of farmers,for promoting the development of modern agriculture.
