Abstract：
At present, the key restrictive factor of land transfer in China is the social security function of land, especially the social endowment function of land. In order to promote land transfer, the social and family old-age securities must be strengthened, so as to reduce the social security function of land. This paper takes the data of CHARLS2015 as a sample, and uses Logit regression model and Tobit regression model to analyze the impact mechanism of social and family old-age securities on rural families’land transfer behavior and land transfer rate. It is found that participating in the new rural insurance system can significantly inhibit farmers’ land transfer behavior and reduce transfer rate, while pensioner farmers are more inclined to transfer land and the transfer rate is higher; the financial support of their offspring to their parents has a positive effect on land transfer, while life care has a significant inhibitory effect on land transfer and transfer rate. At the end of this paper, some policy suggestions are put forward.
