Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This study aims to determine whether non-economic factors impact villagers’ attitudes toward Customary Farmland Reallocation (CFR). Based on data collected from Village X in Shandong Province, based on the binary logistic regression analysis, this study concludes that: 1) household size is correlated to villagers’ attitudes towards CFR. 2) the distrust of village cadres is correlated to villagers’ attitudes towards CFR. This study suggests that non-economic factors like the distrust of village cadres need to be considered, as well as economic factors when considering CFR.
