Discussion on Compensation of Ecosystem for Returning Farming to Forest and Grassland in the Mountain Area of Southern Ningxia

The compensation of ecosystem is an important insurance to return the farming to grass and forest smoothly.It thinks that the compensation should consider the concrete factors of the society,economy and culture.Since the policy of returning farming to forest and grass was implemented in 1999,a series of questions appeared in that place for the unreasonable compensation of ecosystem.in the mountain area of southern Ningxia,such as adjusting farming land to forest and grass is very difficult,the mechanism of compensation lacks pertinence and systemmaticness,the policy is not so steady,the quantity of compensation is not in time.From the theory of outside of resources,theory of the public products and the sustainable development,the compensation of ecosystem is set up.First,because the returning farming to forest and grass project needs funds greatly,the country must set up eco-bank to raise the funds.Second,the government should sale the forest and meadow to local enterprise or individual and set up the market to trade the grass and forest.Third,lessons may drawn from the policy of USA to increase the compensation,if the peasants return the more farming land to grass and forest.Forth,to protect the achievements of the returning farming land and forest,government must give the peasants technological support.Finally,the net of compensation must be set up and adjusted it constantly to reach the best state.
