Abstract

In this paper, 578 samples from Yulong County of Yunnan Province, Xiuwen County of Guizhou Province, Huili County of Sichuan Province, Jingbian County of Shaanxi Province, Qingcheng County of Gansu Province and Wulateqian County of Inner Mongolia were used to analyze the farmers' accepting willingness of ecological compensation of non-commercial forest by taking advantage of Logistic Regression method. The results showed that Level of Respondents Education, Proportion of Tenure Issued Forestland Area to Total Forestland Area, Willingness to Invest in Forestland, Whether Farmers Satisfied with Non-commercial Forest Compensation Cashing Policy and Whether Farmers have Intention of Long-term Operation for Forestland have significant impacts on farmers' willingness to accept ecological compensation of non-commercial forest. Furthermore, the following four recommendations were proposed: Develop rural education and improve farmers' scientific and cultural quality; Improve scientific criteria of ecological compensation of non-commercial forest and effectively protect benefit of forest farmers; Renovate compensating approach of ecological forest and stimulate enthusiasm of forestry development; Establish and improve ecological compensation of forest management and supervision mechanisms and stimulate forest farmers to participate in the protection and construction of non-commercial forest.
