Summary

INTRODUCTION

A new round of collective forest tenure reform was initiated from Fujian and other provinces in 2003. The change of livelihood capital changes the dependence degree of forestland, and affects the choice of forestland management mode of farmers. Based on the perspective of farmers' livelihood capital, this paper explores the factors of farmers' choice of forestland management mode, and systematically proposes appropriate measures for forestland management. It can provide some useful experience for the cultivation and development of new forest management subjects. The existing literature mainly studies the factors affecting the choice of farmers' forest management mode from one aspect of their livelihood capital and less studies the impact factors of farmers' choice of forestland management mode. This paper attempts to explore the impact of sustainable livelihood capital on the choice of forest management model
