Abstract:Although the new Property Law had defined land contract operation right as usufructuary right, related issues were far from resolved which caused a lot of contradictions and conflicts. Legislation should provide appropriate solutions for the healthy development of land contract rights such as further improvement of collective land ownership, clear function of the land contract rights, and smooth channels of relief. In addition, this kind of right had insurmountable disadvantages, so the law should provide some other choices for farmers to choose according to the actual situation.
