Establishing the registration system of the land contract and management right, pushing on the registration of the land contract and management right, carrying out alternative registration of the land contract and management right frequently, constructing the information service platform of the registration system of the land contract and management right and registration to affirm the land contract and management right are beneficial to guarantee bilateral equity about the transfer, rent, exchange and investments of the land contract and management right, to reduce land circulation dispute and fraudulent conduct in the market, to reduce the cost and transaction expenses of searching market message, to improve land market efficiency and to develop land appropriate scale management in an orderly way.

Carrying out the registration of the rural land contract and management right and establishing the thorough registration system of the land contract and management right are beneficial to provide evidence for enacting and deciding the land use plan, plow protection, renovation of land, agriculture allowance and improvement of operations and implementation as well as reduction of costs.

Fourth, the registration of the rural land contract and management right is a precondition to further deepen the rural land system reform.

The state’s rural land system reform has had a great performance, but reform progress is not the end and the rural land contract and management system needs to improve. Roundly deepening the rural land system reform needs to be pushed based on reform’s arriving performance. The registration and awarding certificate of the rural land contract and management right is beneficial to stabilize the invariable policy based on the land contract relationship to give farmers the invariable and guaranteed land contact and management right, providing reliable operational tool in the process of carrying out impawning land property and pushing on land requisition system based on affirming and protecting farmers’ land contract and management right to realize compensation to the farmers of land acquisition.

However, since the second-round has been influenced by complex history and registration background, there are plenty of problems to be solved, such as the area not being clear, and the registration is not completed.
