Abstract: The basic characteristics of land ownership are historical, class, subjective, diverse, and of public and private interests.
Land ownership and corresponding business models that are compatible with a certain socio-economic foundation do not have a single
and unique correspondence. Unitary land collective ownership is not compatible with the level of rural productivity development, and
does not have a complete national adaptability. The private land ownership is limited to the farmers' homestead with limited duration
and scope, and the rural land system with collective public ownership as the main body coexists with various forms. This is not only
consistent with the theory of "three right division", but also in line with the "triple bottom line" principle, which should be the basic
direction of legislation and amendment in the future. Therefore, the policy and the law should be connected in accordance with the
requirements of the unity of universality and particularity. On the basis of seeking truth from facts, reciprocity and mutual benefit and
the principle of bottom line thinking, we should take the market-oriented reform as direction and take a rational consideration of the
distribution of land interests of the country, the collective and the individual as the goal, and gradually build the rural land system of
collective public ownership as the main body coexisting with various forms.

Key words: rural land, collective public ownership, main body, land system
