The scientific, rationality of land consolidation has significant function to the overall efficiency. This paper reviewing some recent advances in methods of evaluation in land consolidation, combining with the projects feature, using and selecting 60 indicators in 5 major categories, constitutes the evaluation index system of comparisons of land consolidation projects and introduces ANP method in land consolidation program comprehensive selection to establish ANP evaluation model for comparisons of land consolidation projects. A great number of uncertainty, fuzziness and random factors and the mutual influence and dependence among the factors in program selection process are analyzed with the ANP method. The practicability of the ANP model is testified through the analysis of the Gaoyan mountain land development and consolidation project in Lanzhou Gansu province. ANP method applied in the field of land consolidation projects is an important reference to decision-making.
