Recently, a site meeting on the efficient and intensive use of land was held in Kuche City, Aksu Prefecture, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. The meeting proposed that in 2024, the region plans to dispose of 316,000 mu of land that has been approved but not yet supplied, as well as 59,000 mu of idle land, and will continue to promote the efficient and intensive utilization of land resources.
　　In recent years, Xinjiang has adhered to the principles of saving and intensive land use, continuously improved its land-use system, and fully harnessed market incentives. By adopting approaches such as “standardized land” auctions and combining leasing with transfer, Xinjiang has enhanced the efficiency of land-resource allocation and accumulated a number of replicable and scalable best practices. In Kuche City, Aksu Prefecture, idle and underutilized land has been actively revitalized through mechanisms including shareholding cooperation, financial support, and lease-contracting arrangements. In Karamay City, efforts have been made to advance the preparation of detailed control plans, thereby promoting industrial clustering, sector concentration, and intensive land use. In Shawan City, Tacheng Prefecture, measures such as strengthening planning and layout, comprehensive land consolidation, and facilitating the entry of collectively-owned construction land into the market have been implemented to tap into the full potential of land resources. In Zhaosu County, unified organization has been employed for land acquisition, resettlement, and compensation, effectively revitalizing inefficient and scattered rural construction land. In Bohu County, Bazhou, a database of underutilized land has been established, and development implementation plans have been formulated for each parcel, thereby boosting land-development intensity.
　　The meeting emphasized that in 2024, Xinjiang will, on the basis of fully implementing the strictest land-saving system, rigorously control the scale of newly approved but unsupplied and idle land, manage the total amount of newly added construction land, and rationally schedule land use and land supply for various sectors. It will also intensify efforts to dispose of existing land stocks, strengthen dynamic management of land conservation and intensive use, and leverage existing land reserves to generate new increments. Furthermore, the meeting called for improving post-approval supervision mechanisms, enhancing dynamic inspections of construction projects—including their commencement, completion, investment intensity, floor area ratio, and status of idleness—and implementing full-process oversight over the development and utilization of construction land after it has been allocated.
