Abstract

A survey was conducted on Canton of China land owners transferring farmland property rights and migrating from rural area to urban. The research objective was to determine how the farmland property rights transfer impacted rural labor migration behavior. Theoretical models proved that transfer of farmland would drive rural labor migration. Empirical results showed farmland transfer market interlinks with rural labor market in a non-specialized production system.
