Legal analysis: Land ownership belongs to the state. Farmers have the right to use it and can contract it to others during the use period. Confirmation of land rights does not change the original land contract relationship. Whose name is on the original land certificate? That's who it is.
Legal basis: "Land Management Law of the People's Republic of China"
