Abstract: Farm land transfer is the core of the reform of land system. Since the reform and opening up, China’s farmland transfer system has gone through two stages: the first stage is from the mid-1980s to the late 1990s, which is characterized by the changes from not allowing to transfer into allowing to transfer, from free transfer into paid transfer, and from single form transfer into multiple forms transfer; the second stage is from the 1990s up till now, which is characterized by the changes from allowing to transfer into encouraging to transfer and from private transfer into transfer in the market. China’s farmland transfer mainly refers to the transfer of the contracted management right of farmland, so the transfer of the contract right is strictly limited. With the transfer of rural labor force coming to the end and citizenization of farmer workers arriving, the transfer of farmland contract right is ready to go ahead. This paper puts forward the idea of the dynamic village members, which should be regarded as an effective way to solve the problems of the transfer of contract right on the basis of insisting on the collective ownership and the family contract system.

Key words: farmland transfer; policy and regulations; contract right transfer; village collective members
