Abstract

Since the commencement of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project in 2003, the population involved for house demolition and relocation has exceeded 340,000, while the changes of welfare levels before and after the resettlement of rural households reflect the rationality and implementation effect of the governmental resettlement policy to a certain extent. This paper makes an investigation on the welfare level of relocated farmers from the aspects of economic welfare and non-economic welfare after a field visit for the rural families moving from Chengang Village, Xianghua Town, Xichuan County, Danjiangkou Reservoir Area to Jiulong Township, Dengzhou City, and then puts forward countermeasures and suggestions for improvement of the welfare level of migrated farmers according to the research results.
