1. Different owners: the owners of state-owned land are all citizens of People's Republic of China (PRC), and any citizen of China is the owner of state-owned land, which belongs to the public, and the people's government exercises ownership on behalf of all citizens of China. The owners of collective land are members of agricultural collective economic organizations (hereinafter referred to as "collective organizations") [1], and non-collective members do not enjoy the ownership of land owned by collective organizations, so collective land belongs to a "minority", and collective organizations generally exercise ownership on behalf of their members.
2. Different uses: According to the current laws and regulations, there are two main ways to use state-owned land. One is to use it for other purposes, that is, to transfer or allocate the right to use it for economic development or social development; First, production work is for personal use, which is used to build office space and public welfare facilities. At present, state-owned land used by individuals cannot be used for residential and commercial purposes, such as building houses and hotels. The use of collective land can also be divided into two ways: other uses are similar to state-owned land, that is, the right to use is transferred and leased to obtain income; In terms of personal use, it is different from state-owned land. In addition to production and work, it can also be used for life and business, such as distributing it to members as homestead, building collective houses, entertainment facilities and business facilities.
3. Different income channels: Because the state-owned land occupied by the government cannot be used for business, the income of state-owned land mainly comes from the transfer fee obtained from the transfer of the right to use. The income channels of collective land are wider, including the transfer and lease of the right to use other purposes, and the operating income of self-use land and its attachments.
