Under the remaining veins of the snow-capped mountains in the depths of Yuanshan Township in Ilan, there is a rich inner city settlement in Yongquan. Because the farmland has not been rezoned, the land is irregular, it is connected by winding paths, and the people jokingly call it "broken fields", which seems to be disadvantageous. However, it occasionally preserves the landscape and natural space texture of a small number of farmhouses in Ilan, attracting a lot of foreign youth. In this friendly farming, the inner city community develops "Tieniuliaka" fleet (Note 1). Take tourists to enjoy the authentic Ilan settlement.

Now the county government is about to start the rezoning of agricultural land, dropping shock bombs to calm the countryside. The place has been divided into two voices: support and opposition. Proponents think that rezoning is beneficial to mechanized farming and land division, while opponents think that rezoning not only affects the landscape, but also affects the underground water vein. At the same time, the land in the inner city village is "rising sound", and the price per minute (300ping) of agricultural land is about 3 million, regardless of whether the rezoning case is passed or not. Land transactions are already hot, while small farmers who rent land for farming are restless.

The irregular farmland in the inner city, known as broken farmland, has become a major capital for the development of tourism and leisure in the community. County Land Bureau rezoning brief Photo Inner City: the ploughing Land of friendly Agriculture and small Farmers

In the unrezoned inner city village, as it is not conducive to the construction of farmhouses, the space for land speculation is limited, and the residents are more willing to lease the land to foreign small farmers for farming. After Shengou Village, the inner city village has attracted many small farmers from outside to work.

Over the past 30 or 40 years, local people have proposed several times to strive for the rezoning of agricultural land, but failed to integrate the opinions of the landlords. On the morning of October 4, the planning consultant company outside the county government committee suddenly held a "local presentation meeting on the feasibility assessment of farmland rezoning in Inner City and Shangde" to drop shock bombs for calm rural areas.

Li Cha, a small farmer who adopts friendly farming, believes that the inner city has towns within a hundred years, leading to excellent water sources for irrigation in the snow-capped mountains, and the historic settlement landscape is also an important asset for rural development. once rezoned, it will be conducive to the construction of farmhouses, which will trigger land speculation in the inner city and destroy the unique and precious natural scenery of the inner city. Another small-scale farmer, Zeng Fanyi, believes that the rezoned Tian Heng block will bring cement ridges, destroy the existing ecosystem, and lose the natural appearance of the inner city village after consolidation.

Xu Yuanfei, a farmer in the inner city, believes that Yuanshan is the mother of water sources in Ilan County, and once it is developed and rezoned, people's livelihood water and irrigation water sources will be affected. "I once saw an animal that looked like a cat when I was walking my dog. I almost walked into the supermarket, and when I looked closely, I found that it was a pangolin!" Xu Yuanfei recalls that seven or eight years ago, there were not many small farmers in the inner city, but now more than half of the area is friendly farming, and development is tantamount to obliterating the farmers' efforts to maintain the environment for many years.

Rezoning Section of the Lands Office: even if the rezoning of agricultural land is conducive to the construction of farmhouses, it is also a legitimate right and interest.

Zeng Ziqing, Chief of the rezoning Section of the Lands Office, said that this time the land covers an area of about 668 hectares of agricultural land in Neicheng and Shangde villages. In the past, without rezoning, more than 60% of the agricultural land had no access roads, and the plots were fragmented, lack of overall irrigation and drainage planning was disadvantageous to farming, and accorded with priority for rezoning areas.

After the county government has completed the outsourcing feasibility assessment, it will be submitted to the county magistrate for approval, and then the Yuanshan Township Office will hold a propaganda meeting to investigate the wishes of the landlords, in accordance with the current regulations on the rezoning of agricultural land. as long as more than half of the landlords who own more than half of the land in the area agree, it can be implemented.

The scope of agricultural land rezoning covers a total area of 668 hectares in the inner city of Shangde and covers a total area of 668 hectares. the survey includes more than 1700 landowners, excluding friendly small farmers from outside. _ Information provided by the rezoning Division of the District Lands Office

However, according to the views of small farmers, the farmland rezoning case only investigates the wishes of landlords, and the wishes and farming rights of small farmers who currently lease land for farming are not protected at all.

In response to this, the county government rezoning section replied that a number of small farmers are engaged in friendly farming in the rezoning area, and since the rezoning project period is about two years, which will affect the farming rights of small farmers, the county government specially appointed a consultant to include small farmers in the scope of opinion collection, and the project time will be shortened as soon as possible to take into account the rights and interests of small farmers.

However, in the actual rezoning intention survey, because small farmers have no land ownership, according to the current laws and regulations, the rezoning intention survey can only take the landlords who have land ownership as the investigation object.

The results of the opinion survey provided by the consultant have been reclassified as providing conditions for the construction of farmhouses to promote speculation on the land.

Section Chief Zeng Ziqing of the rezoning Section said frankly that the rezoned land has been consolidated and expanded, and the square, road conditions, irrigation and drainage facilities can indeed increase the added value of farmland for the construction of farmhouses and increase the willingness of land transactions. "the problem of agricultural land speculation is inevitable all over the country!" Zeng Ziqing said that the existing laws and regulations are increasingly stringent in determining the qualifications for the construction of farmhouses, but once they are qualified, the construction of farmhouses is also their legitimate rights and interests.

In order to reduce the possible atmosphere of agricultural land speculation, the offset land allocated by the county government (Note 2) will not hold more than two and a half minutes of agricultural land, but it is inevitable that the agricultural land sold or divided and merged will exceed this threshold.

In response to questions from the public that specific development forces are operating this rezoning case and urging the county government to speed up the process, Chief Zeng said that the county government has not been instructed or pressured. Instead, the redrawing case must be reported to the Central Ministry of the Interior before the end of the year, and local operating procedures must be completed as soon as possible.

After the rezoning, the farmland is square and large, and the conditions of facing the road, irrigation and drainage are therefore conducive to the construction of farmhouse threshold (Photography / Lin Jiyang). Jian Yuhong, director of the community: keeping the pace of rural life is the asset for the development of leisure and sightseeing rural areas.

Chien Yu-hung, chairman of the Inner City Community Development Association, which promotes social development, believes that because the inner city village has not been rezoned, the original rural landscape has been preserved, and there are not so many farmhouses to be built. In the future, if the majority of residents support rezoning, then he also suggests that the landscape must be maintained and the land should not be cut on a chessboard in order to maintain the original slow pace of the inner city.

Chien Yu-hung points out that at present, most old farmers have few farmers, and many friendly small farmers have come to the inner city to cultivate more than 60 hectares of farmland to maintain the balance between farming and ecology in the inner city. If they are rezoned, they will crowd out the living space of small farmers and make the inner city villages lose their agricultural function. For the inner city to promote leisure and tourism in rural areas for a long time, it is a deduction of points.

Jian Yuhong believes that the sustainable value of rural areas is gradually recognized by the public, short-term benefits are limited, and the preservation of rural environment and natural ecology is the real wealth. He also observed that in considering the farmland rezoning case, there were also opinions such as the Golden car Company, the Deep ditch Water purification Plant, and the Lin family of the land main board bridge, and it was still uncertain whether the rezoning case could be passed smoothly.
