校地联动共商土地治理，青春赋能助力乡村振兴 ——江西农大“三农”实践队与广昌县自然资源局开展土地资源专题座谈会

Core Insights - The discussion between Jiangxi Agricultural University’s youth practice team and the Guangchang County Natural Resources Bureau focused on land resource management challenges in hilly areas, emphasizing the need for innovative solutions to address land governance issues [1][2]. Current Situation Analysis: Land Governance Challenges in Hilly Areas - Guangchang County, characterized by fragmented farmland with an average of less than 3 mu per household, faces significant challenges in agricultural mechanization, with a mechanization rate below 30% and costs exceeding 40% compared to flatland areas [2]. - The youth practice team identified that land fragmentation leads to inefficient irrigation practices, with water resource utilization below 50%, which hinders agricultural productivity and the application of modern agricultural technologies [2]. Policy Focus: Balancing Farmland Protection and Ecological Red Lines - Guangchang County must adhere to the 800 million mu farmland protection line, with 774.36 square kilometers designated as ecological red line, representing 48.31% of the county's area, creating a conflict between ecological protection and agricultural development [2][3]. - The current ecological red line demarcation relies on a "dual evaluation" mechanism, which sometimes restricts agricultural infrastructure development in valuable hilly terraced areas [2]. Pathways to Resolution: Technological Empowerment and Conceptual Innovation - The discussion highlighted the need for a dynamic adjustment mechanism for ecological red lines, prioritizing the removal of flatter, contiguous farmland to facilitate agricultural development [3]. - The youth practice team proposed an "Ecological Agriculture" model to enhance land productivity while protecting ecosystems, such as planting nitrogen-fixing plants around lotus fields to reduce fertilizer use and support beneficial insects [3]. Collaborative Framework: Building a "Theory-Practice-Transformation" Loop - The Natural Resources Bureau expressed a desire for the youth practice team to utilize local case studies for projects, integrating data on farmland quality, transfer needs, and ecological red lines for dynamic monitoring and precise allocation of land resources [5]. - The emphasis was placed on the necessity for academic research to align closely with grassroots needs, encouraging students to engage with real-world agricultural challenges to develop practical solutions [7].
