据材料介绍,自去年以来曲周县农村开始拍卖路渠及荒地等宜林地,取得了很好的成效。到1998年3月,该县已拍卖道路636条,总长1067公里,河渠787条,1238公里,闲散及边远次地10632亩,共签定拍卖合同3260份,已收拍卖资金2930万元。为了更详细了解他们的做法,最近我又专程到曲周县进行了一番调查。我的感受是,拍卖是继“承包”之后关于林地权属的又一次革命,它进一步使农民得到了自主参与林业建设的权力,是我国现阶段参与性社会林业的有益尝试。 According to the introduction of materials, since the rural areas of Quzhou County started auctions of road drainage and wasteland and other suitable forests since last year, good results have been achieved. By March 1998, the county had auctioned 636 roads, 1067 kilometers long, 787 river canals, 1238 kilometers of idle land and 10632 acres of land in remote areas. A total of 3,260 contracts for auction were signed and auctioned funds amounted to RMB29.3 million. In order to know more about their practices, I recently made a special trip to Quzhou County to conduct a survey. My feeling is that the auction is another revolution after the “contract” on the ownership of forest land. It further enables farmers to get the right to participate in forestry construction at will. This is a useful attempt to participate in social forestry at this stage in our country.
