1. Transfer land to contracted enterprises or individuals to continue their operations, make flexible use of land resources, and protect the interests of farmers who have the original land use rights;

2. Use idle land for high-standard farmland construction to improve the efficiency of rural resources utilization;

3. Let the abandoned farmers replant the land, but this way may not be ideal unless it is driven by interests.

Consequences of land abandonment:

1. Waste of land resources: Land is a limited natural resource, and land abandonment leads to waste and loss of land resources, resulting in waste of social resources and loss of economic benefits;

2. Deterioration of ecological environment: Abandoning soil will lead to vegetation reduction, land exposure, soil erosion, groundwater level reduction and other problems, further affecting the quality and stability of ecological environment;

3. Intensified rural poverty: Abandoning land will lead to slow rural economic development, reduced farmers' income, intensified rural poverty, and further widen the gap between urban and rural areas;

4. Widening the gap between urban and rural areas: Abandoning land will lead to the slow development of rural economy, the decrease of farmers' income, and the widening gap between rural areas and cities, further affecting social stability and harmony;

5. Decrease of grain supply: Abandoning wasteland will lead to decrease of cultivated land, decrease of grain production capacity and decrease of grain supply, which will further affect national food security and economic development.

To sum up, in the process of land abandonment, we must follow the relevant national policies, laws and regulations and adopt reasonable ways and measures to ensure the rational use of land resources and the protection of the ecological environment.
