For priority and intensive land-using industries, as well as industrial projects engaged in preliminary processing for products of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery, the bottom land transfer price may be not less than 50% of price at the corresponding level set by the National Bottom Price Standard for Industrial Land Transfer. For the state-owned unused land that does not belong to the urban construction land in the overall land use plan, and also industrial projects of which the initial development is completed by the land user, the bottom land transfer price may be not less than 10% of price at the corresponding level set by the National Bottom Price Standard for Industrial Land Transfer .

Flexible rules of land transfer and annual rent are explored implemented, as the bottom land transfer price may be not less than 10%-50% of price at the corresponding level set by the National Bottom Price Standard for Industrial Land Transfer , so as to lower the benchmark land price for industrial park construction.

For new or technically reformed industrial projects by private companies engaged in production, they are entitled to incentive or subsidiary through other channels as per 30% of land transfer price at province, city or county level, given that the investment intensity of the company reaches 1,500,000 RMB/mu (exclusive of land price) or the employment provided by the project reaches 200; incentive or subsidiary through other channels as per 20% of land transfer price at province, city or county level are also available, given that the investment intensity of the company reaches 800,000 RMB/mu (exclusive of land price) or the employment provided by the project reaches 100.

Industrial parks are encouraged and guided to expand to hilly and sloping areas, so as to carry out the "terrace type" development. For projects that carry out development for multiple areas, relevant local fees are exempted.

Additional land price will not be charged for industrial land use which is: kept in accordance with its planning and original purpose; constructed upon self-owned land; increased in land use rate and plot ratio.

In the context of industrialization and urbanization, planning and arrangement of construction land for companies/industrial parks in Chinese medicine or special Chinese food industry are to be prioritized. The land acquisition compensation related is subject to preference as per state laws and regulations. The projects related to planting, processing, sales and distribution of agricultural products are subject to the preferential policies for agricultural land use, etc.

Land price preference for industrial parks: for industrial projects with further increased investment intensity, plot ratio and building factor on the basis of Construction Land Control Index for Industrial Park Projects in Guizhou Province , 5%-25% of single index in the land price is preferable as per the specific increment. Standard plant construction projects are directly entitled to 25% of single index preference for investment intensity, as specified in the following table:

Preferential Standard for Land Price of Industrial Parks in Guizhou Province

Increment in investment intensity (T)	Land price preference	Increment in plot ratio (R)	Land price preference	Increment in building factor (J)	Land price preference
0/font>	5%	0/font>	5%	0/font>	5%
10%/font>	10%	5%/font>	10%	10%/font>	10%
20%/font>	15%	10%/font>	15%	20%/font>	15%
30%/font>	20%	15%/font>	20%	30%/font>	20%
T>40%	25%	R>20%	25%	J>40%	25%

The sum of the above single index preference would be the land price preference for a project, with the maximum preference being 50%. However, the industrial project utilizing state-owned unused land in the industrial park is entitled to 70% of preference.

Since Guizhou is a state pilot region for development of industrial and urban construction at unused low hills and gentle slopes, the related indexes are managed in separate columns.

Incentive policies for annual land use plan are implemented. The newly planned land acquisition in the year regarding construction land required by pilot projects for hilly area improvement is comprehensively handled by the provincial authority. So, after completion and acceptance of project, a certain percentage of increased quota for newly planned construction land to occupy farm land may be allowed according to the condition of local unused land.

The procedures for acquisition of collectively-owned land in the hilly area improvement project area is to be handled in advance as per the approval authority, so as to orderly carry out the piloting of acquisition-transfer separation.

Hilly area improvement is encouraged to be carried out through cooperation, and we are actively guiding social investment into the improvement. In the mean time, we are adequately increasing the return on investment for primary land development companies.

We are continuing to facilitate the linkage between the increase of urban construction land use and the decrease of rural construction land use, so as to allow the linkage to be properly adopted within the industry cluster.

Guizhou is developing new construction land use plan every year, reserving sufficient quota to fully support the construction for investment introduction projects and the industrial park. Provincial priority is set to ensure the construction land use quota for projects with more than 30 million USD or 0.5 billion RMB of investment; priority land allocation is guaranteed for state-encouraged investment introduction projects with intensive land use; and special land use support is provided for large-scale investment introduction project with more than 1 billion of invested capital.

Newly required construction land use quota is collectively arranged at province level for major projects transferring to encouraged industry with more than 50 million USD or 0.3 billion RMB of investment.

Private companies are encouraged to use the existing land and idle land for construction of standard multi-floor factories…for private companies which abide by the overall land use plan and national industrial policy to lease the collective rural construction land with more than 10 years of actual plant history, their collective construction land procedures are to be handled as per laws.

The administrative approval element and process for land acquisition of private economy and transfer of farm land have been simplified, with the number of elements required for separate land use application by private construction project decreased to 21 items, and the elements required for pre-planned application decreased to 15 items.

The application for industrial land used by private economy has been optimized, allowing application with several projects in a package to be handled as pre-planned application.

Construction land review as well as review and registration for assignment, transfer and leasing of state-owned land use rights handled by the department of land resources shall be finished within 10 workdays, given that the elements and processes are duly appropriate.
