TL;DR: In this article, the connotation of rural vitalization and land consolidation in the new era as well as their relationships are discussed, and the alternative paths for achieving rural vitalisation via land consolidation are analyzed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors take the Huangshandian village in the suburb of Beijing as a case study area to carry out an empirical study on the process of rural restructuring by adopting the method of participatory rural assessment (PRA) and GIS technology.

TL;DR: The implications for ensuring food security involve promoting the reclamation and redevelopment of inefficient and unused urban-rural construction land, reducing inefficient occupation of farmland resources, developing appropriate scale management of agriculture, and establishing a better social security system to smoothly settle down the floating rural population in the city.

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper constructed a theoretical model for farmland transition using the per capita farmland area (PCFA) metric, which consists of the temporal changes in PCFA and PCFA spatial transitions as elevations change.

TL;DR: In this paper, a conceptual classification framework was proposed and a set of spatialization models were employed to assess, identify, quantify and visualize land use function (LUF) in spatial grid context.
