Abstract:

Increasing farmers income was taken as one of goals in the collective forest rights system reform. According to the peasant household forest product sales revenue, this paper discussed the impacts of collective forest rights system reform to the peasant household forestry income, and then analyzed cruising data on 10 counties or cities of the Fujian Province in 2006. The result did not support this proposition that the collective forest rights system reform would increase farmers forestry income,and then increase farmers income. The collective forest rights system reform made the farmers obtain the property right of forest land or the forest resources, but it did not have remarkable impacts on the farmers forest property sales revenue. Furthermore the property right did not stimulate farmers to input more elements,such as labor,capital and so on, to manage the forestry.

Key words: the reform of collective forest rights system, farmers, forestry income
