Cultivated land is the foundation and lifeblood of agricultural development and agricultural modernization. The cultivated layer of cultivated land is a high-quality topsoil suitable for crop growth formed by long-term natural evolution and cultivation and fertilization, which is irreplaceable and scarce. The stripping and reuse of cultivated layers can protect and utilize high-quality cultivated layers, regenerate cherished cultivated land resources, and solve the problem of shortage of cultivated land resources. It is an important starting point for effectively strengthening cultivated land protection.
The three pilot counties (cities) have clarified the use of soil. The soil after the stripping of the cultivated layer of cultivated land should be mainly used for newly reclaimed cultivated land, improvement of inferior cultivated land, and treatment of contaminated cultivated land. The three pilot counties (cities) have proposed a reward and punishment mechanism for the evaluation of the stripping and reuse of cultivated layers, and include the stripping and reuse of cultivated layers in the assessment of the responsibility for the protection of cultivated land. The construction land plan index rewards are encouraged to encourage the establishment of an information trading platform for the stripping and reuse of arable land. Enterprises that actively participate in the stripping and reusing of farming layers will be given certain policy support or material incentives to stimulate the endogenous motivation of all participating parties to participate in the stripping and reuse of farming layers, and promote the normalization of work.

The three pilot counties (cities) have achieved certain results in the stripping and reuse of cultivated layers of cultivated land: First, the problems faced by the protection of resources and guaranteeing the development of cultivated land in "dominant and complementary" have been resolved. With the rapid economic development and the in-depth development of new industrialization and urbanization, the reserve resources of high-quality arable land are becoming more and more scarce, and it is increasingly difficult to achieve a balance between the occupation and compensation of cultivated land, and to make up for the best. Carrying out the stripping and reuse of cultivated land is an important measure to solve this problem, so that the quantity and quality of the supplementary cultivated land and the occupied cultivated land are equal, and to a certain extent, the contradiction between the agricultural land and the construction land is alleviated.
The second is to improve the quality of the existing cultivated land. To stick to the red line of arable land and truly realize "grain storage in the land", we must first have high-quality arable land. Reuse of high-quality ploughing layers in areas with insufficiently fertile soil shortens the time for topsoil maturation, improves soil quality and ploughing conditions, greatly improves the quality of existing arable land in low- and medium-yield fields, effectively increases arable land productivity, and rejuvenates fertile soil. . The third is to protect the ecological environment. There are also a large number of biological seeds in the soil of the tillage layer, which is known as the seed bank of biodiversity . The stripping and reuse of the ploughing layer has protected biodiversity, leaving more space for the effective restoration of land damaged or destroyed by various constructions and the restoration of the ecological environment.
