On the afternoon of February 19, the fourth meeting of the Central Committee for Comprehensive Deepening Reforms was held. A document related to the reform of the land management system - "Opinions on Reforming the Land Management System to Enhance the Ability to Ensure High-Quality Development in Advantageous Areas" was reviewed and approved at the meeting.

  When presiding over the meeting, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized the need to establish and improve a land management system that is more efficiently connected with macro policies and regional development. When deploying relevant work, the meeting clearly pointed out that "three lines of control" must be strictly observed: cultivated land and permanent basic farmland, ecological protection red lines, and urban development boundaries.

  These "three lines of control" are the three red lines delineated respectively based on the three types of space in my country's agriculture, ecology, and cities. They are my country's mandatory constraints on land space management and are also relevant to our understanding of this Shenzhen Reform Commission meeting. An important issue in the reform and deployment of the land management system.

Consolidate national food security and strictly observe the control lines of cultivated land and permanent basic farmland

  How to strictly observe the control lines of cultivated land and permanent basic farmland to be effective, you first need to understand two concepts:

  The cultivated land red line refers to the minimum area of ​​land that is regularly cultivated. my country’s current red line of 1.8 billion acres of cultivated land must not be exceeded.

  Permanent basic farmland refers to basic farmland that cannot be changed in use under any circumstances and cannot be used for other purposes in any way. Up to now, my country has actually designated 1.546 billion acres of permanent basic farmland.

  Every inch of land is of vital importance to the national economy, and every ridge and acre carries people's livelihood. Arable land is the root of life for more than 1.4 billion people and is our most precious resource.

  As early as 2004, Xi Jinping, then secretary of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee, wrote in the Zhejiang Daily's "Zhijiang News" column that land factor constraints are a hard constraint and that land issues must be "lived tight for a long time."

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has devoted a lot of effort to turning every inch of cultivated land into fertile soil for harvests. From pointing out that "stick to the red line of 1.8 billion acres of cultivated land, we have issued a military order and must do it without any room for bargaining" to requiring "implementing the strategy of storing food in the land and storing food in technology", from enjoining "to take effective measures to effectively Protect and make good use of the black soil, the 'giant panda in cultivated land'" to emphasizing "taking hard measures to 'grow teeth' to comprehensively consolidate the responsibilities of local party committees and governments at all levels to protect cultivated land"... Every word of advice has become Principles of farmland protection work.

  In recent years, the Party Central Committee has implemented a series of hard measures to maintain the red line of cultivated land and initially curb the continued decline in total cultivated land. But we must also be soberly aware that our country’s national situation of more people and less land has not changed. The problem of “non-agricultural” and “non-grain” cultivated land is still prominent. The foundation for guarding the red line of cultivated land is not yet solid. There are still many outstanding debts in farmland water conservancy. .

  This Deep Reform Committee meeting emphasized the need to strictly observe the control lines of cultivated land and permanent basic farmland, once again sounding the alarm to the whole party and society about the protection of cultivated land.

Protect green waters and green mountains and strictly abide by ecological protection red lines

  On the vast geographical territory of our country, there is a red line guarding the beautiful China. This red line is the ecological protection red line and is the bottom line for ensuring and maintaining national ecological security.

  Establishing a strict management and control system to achieve a red line for controlling important ecological spaces to ensure that ecological functions are not reduced, the area is not reduced, and the nature is not changed. This is General Secretary Xi Jinping’s sincere entrustment.

  Green waters and green mountains, guarded by red lines. In February 2017, the delineation and system construction of national ecological protection red lines was officially launched. In April 2023, the national ecological protection red line delineation work was fully completed. On the basis of the existing various types of nature reserves, areas with special important ecological functions within the ecological space that must be strictly protected must be strictly protected.

  At present, the total ecological protection red line area in my country is about 3.19 million square kilometers, of which the terrestrial ecological protection red line area is about 3.04 million square kilometers (accounting for more than 30% of the country's land area), and the marine ecological protection red line area is about 150,000 square kilometers. These areas cover the vast majority of grasslands, important wetlands, coral reefs, mangroves, seagrass beds and other important ecosystems, as well as the vast majority of undeveloped and uninhabited islands.

  The red line area is not a "no man's land". People can move around but their ecological attributes cannot be changed. By delineating ecological protection red lines, we will protect areas with the most important natural ecosystems, the most unique natural landscapes, the most essential natural heritage, and the richest biodiversity in my country, and also provide sustainable ecological support for sustainable development.

  This Deep Reform Committee meeting once again emphasized the need to strictly abide by the ecological protection red line. Specifically, it is necessary to prevent formalistic ecological restoration problems such as "pseudo-ecology and real destruction" that arbitrarily change the use of the ecological protection red line, and to avoid unreasonable ecological adjustments. The ecological protection red line area caused by the red line is reduced, fragmented and "substandard quality" occurs.

  “Everything needs its own harmony to survive, and each needs its own nourishment to thrive.” In the vast land, the boundaries of ecological space are gradually becoming clearer, and the relationship between man and nature is becoming more harmonious in the reconstruction. This line is the red line that protects the sustainable development of the Chinese nation and the people's happiness in life.

Integrate cities and towns into nature and strictly observe urban development boundaries

  The urban development boundary is an important part of the "Three Control Lines". It is a regional boundary that can focus on urban development and construction, improve urban functions, and improve spatial quality due to urban development needs within a certain period of time. It involves cities, towns, and various development zones. wait.

  In 2022, all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities across the country will coordinate the urban development boundaries of cities, towns and various development zones in accordance with a top-down and bottom-up working method. When delineating the "three lines of control", we first draw the cultivated land protection red line and the ecological protection red line, and then draw the urban development boundaries, forcing all localities to use land resources sparingly and intensively, and promote the comprehensive green transformation of economic and social development.

  Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has always attached great importance to the construction and development of urban areas in our country. He once profoundly pointed out that "urban development cannot only consider the benefits of economies of scale, but must put ecology and security in a more prominent position." "We must put the food basket, human settlement environment, urban space and other tasks in important positions and do a good job." "Adopt a high-quality development path that is connotative, intensive, and green."

  This Deep Reform Committee meeting emphasized the need to strictly abide by urban development boundaries, aiming to rationally arrange the scale, structure, layout and timing of urban construction land, do a good job in managing mountains and rivers, and show mountains and rivers, so as to build a high-quality development of land and space layout and The support system accumulates potential and stamina, and also leaves a sustainable and beautiful home for future generations.

  Land is an important material basis for our survival and development, and an important guarantee to support my country's high-quality development and realize Chinese-style modernization. Strictly adhering to the "three lines of control" is the bottom line and top priority for "improving the accuracy and utilization efficiency of land element allocation" and "enhancing the ability of land elements to guarantee high-quality development in advantageous areas". It is also a long-term solution.
