Revitalization and Utilization of Idle Rural Homestead Land and Its Dynamic Mechanism in Megacity Regions:A Case Study of Model Villages of Rural Revitalization in Shanghai
Idle rural homestead land is a common phenomenon during urbanization,and its revitalization and utilization through reforms to separate three rights is still in the pilot stage.A field survey was carried out on 112 model villages of rural re-vitalization in Shanghai to analyze the mechanisms and methods of homestead land revitalization and utilization.The results show that the dominating land circulation methods are between farming households and individuals and between farming house-holds and village collectives,primarily for residential use.Meanwhile,there is also an increase in new industries and business forms,in which market entities are princi-pally entrusted with business operations.The study points out that as rural develop-ment in megacity regions enters a relatively stable stage focused on redevelopment,promoting organic renewal based on the circulation of use rights of idle homestead land will become mainstream.With strong policy support,there is potential to re-lease greater productive power,promote high-quality urban-rural integration,and re-fine governance structures.The selected model villages in Shanghai provide signifi-cant references for idle homestead land revitalization and utilization in highly urban-ized areas.
