Life Satisfaction Approach

The purpose of this article is to analyze the effects of multifunctional rural land use (MRLU) on residents’ wellbeing. A questionnaire survey on 805 rural residents in 64 villages of the Xinzhou District of Wuhan city in China, and estimators of OLS, ordered logit, and ordered probit were employed. The Shannon’s H index and Simpson’s Reciprocal Index are used to measure MRLU and the life satisfaction approach is used to measure wellbeing. An inverted-U pattern is observed in the relationship between MRLU and wellbeing, and another finding of the study is the threshold of MRLU. The article contributes to the literature by integrating MRLU into wellbeing analysis from a spatial-separated form, and deepens the relationship between MRLU and the residents’ wellbeing. MRLU is characterized by differences and a moderation, which can provide a reference for profiling rural land use planning and for designing land-use policy, and for prompting rural sustainable development.

Actual Loss

Agricultural problems associated with population growth have been analyzed in the Northeast for some time. The loss of cropland and the effect on agricultural output have been documented by Otte and Krause. In addition to the actual loss of agricultural land, changes in land-use, taxation and agricultural input infrastructure continue to be analyzed. Indeed, rural land-use policy researchers in the Northeast have provided national leadership for several institutional innovations, e.g. agricultural districts, transferable development right sales and differential assessments. The Conference on Rural Land-Use Policy in the Northeast held at Atlantic City in 1974 and the on-going regional research project, “Rural Land Use Policy in an Urbanizing Environment” attest to the continued research in this area.

Active Policy

A Bayesian Network approach to developing effective policies for more sustainable rural land use and development is presented which: • incorporates several different stakeholder viewpoints • integrates and balances the results from different viewpoints, and thus facilitates compromise land use solutions • elucidates the main factors affecting stakeholders' decisions, on which policy levers will operate more effectively • allows differences between "expected change" and "observed change" to be understood as arising from uncertainty and variation about "the average situation" • demonstrates the crucial roles of beliefs and uncertainties in determining the preferred options of different groups • emphasises the need to know the beliefs and uncertainties of local land managers • incorporates public participation and social learning while such necessary data are gathered. The approach's merits for fostering pro-active policy design and subsidiarity, and for focusing the research needed to underpin rural policy are discussed.
