摘　　要：Could land reallocation partially explain the decision of off-farm employment of farmers in rural China? Using an individual-level survey data,we find that there is no effect of land reallocation on the individuals' decision on off-farm employments.However,there is a robust negative effect of land reallocation on the amount of time that villagers devote to off-farm work.The first result is attributed to the large earnings difference between farm and nonfarm work;the second result is attributed to the fact that village leaders reallocate land from households short of farm labor to households that farm intensively.
