This paper applied two-steps strategy to calculate the rural residential land consolidation potentiality of in nine groups Guni village, located in the west of Chongkan town, Chongqing. Based on the reckoning method of standardizedper capita construction land that could calculate the theoretical value of each group’s rural residential land potentiality,this paper made a correction of theoretical potential value considering influencing factors of rural residential land consolidation in Guni village, and then got an actual potential value in accordance with real situation. This study would explore the approach of rural residential land consolidation potentiality calculation at village level, and provide theoretical basis for village land use planning. The results showed that:(1) in theory, all the nine villages in Guni village had great potential of rural residential land consolidation, the potential consolidation area was about 19.25 hm2, and the land-saving could reach 55.43% after consolidation; (2) The correction coefficient was from 0.3866 to 0.7083, and potential consolidation area was about 10.38 hm2, 8.87 hm2 less than the theoretical potential value, and land-saving could reach 29.89%; (3) According to each group’s actual rural residential consolidation potentiality, Guni village could be divided into four zones which were prior consolidation zone, key consolidation zone moderate consolidation zone, and follow -up consolidation zone. |
