Since the New Era,China has comprehensively promoted a new round of rural reform and made breakthroughs in important areas and key links,laying a solid institutional foundation for promoting agricultural and rural modernization as well as comprehensive rural revitalization.These achievements in rural reform are due to the consistent adherence to and strengthening of the CPC's overall leadership over the agriculture,rural areas,and farmers issues.They also benefit from the reform methods of pilot experiments,the reform concept of urban-rural integration,the reform means of technological empowerment,and the reform guarantee formed by the construction of the rule of law.Specifically,the rural reform in the New Era focuses on such aspects as rural land system,modern agricultural management system,rural collective property rights system,rural governance system,and urban-rural integration development.With the maintenance and realization of farmers'property rights and interests as the logical starting point,the pursuit of meeting farmers'aspirations for a better life and achieving common prosperity in rural areas as the goal,and the clarification of property rights,expansion of functions,and manifestation of value as the logical thread,innovative breakthroughs have been achieved in institutional design,policy arrangements,and practical exploration.Concurrently,rural reform in the New Era has also propelled innovation in the theoretical framework of socialism with Chinese characteristics.This innovation not only deepens the theories of rural collective ownership and the redistribution of rural collective property rights but also advances theories of agricultural industrial development and rural governance,as well as expands theories of urban-rural integration development and agricultural and rural modernization.The common characteristics of these theories emphasize grounding in China's unique national and rural conditions,valuing the exploration of the advantages of the socialist system with Chinese characteristics,adhering to the moderate opening of property rights and the market-oriented allocation of factors,and focusing on stimulating the initiative of farmers and market vitality.Overall,rural reform in the New Era has demonstrated significant institutional performance in practice,providing strong impetus for rural economic and social development and the transformation of urban-rural relations.However,it is also important to recognize that some areas of rural reform are still in the exploratory stage,while others are facing formidable challenges,and some are navigating through uncharted waters.Rural reform still faces some difficulties and bottlenecks,mainly manifested in the incomplete institutional mechanisms for market-oriented factor allocation,the need to expand the openness of rural property rights structures,the necessity to improve the linkage of reforms in various rural areas,and the weakening of the initiative and organization of farmers.Embarking on a new journey of Chinese path to modernization construction,it is imperative to view the agriculture,rural areas and farmers issues from the perspective of the overall situation of the CPC and the country's cause,continue to advance along the path of gradual rural reform,adhere to the direction of rural collective land ownership and marketization,steadily expand the openness of rural property rights structures,and promote the reshaping and reorganization of farmers'initiatives.
