Research on the Key Influencing Factors and Guarantee Strategies of Comprehensive Land Consolidation Based on the Optimization of Fuzzy-BWM

Comprehensive land consolidation (CLC) is a more integrated and sustainable land management model that can better meet the requirements of socio-economic development and ecological environmental protection. However, CLC involves multiple fields, stakeholders, and complex socio-economic environments, which make it challenging to grasp the main points and difficulties in understanding CLC, resulting in insufficient scientific and targeted work. Therefore, identifying the key influencing factors (KIFs) of CLC is crucial for its successful implementation. This study adopts a multivariate system theory perspective and identifies 43 factors that can be categorized into three groups: consolidation subject, consolidation element, and consolidation system and environment. Furthermore, the Hamming distance optimization traditional fuzzy best and worst method (FBWM) is introduced to identify eight KIFs, including A6 comprehensive quality of professionals, A7 importance of local government, B9 financial support, B18 land use planning, B20 comprehensive consolidation cost, C2 benefit distribution mechanism, C5 whole process supervision and control mechanism, and C8 multi-departmental coordination mechanism. This study provides a new theoretical framework and methodology for research on the influencing factors of CLC, and helps policy makers and decision makers understand the interrelationships and influences of different factors in the complex consolidation work, clarifying the management priorities for CLC implementation. This can lead to the formulation of more scientific and reasonable policies and measures to promote the sustainable use and comprehensive management of land resources. Moreover, the introduction of Hamming distance optimization to the traditional FBWM enhances the reliability and scientific rigor of the research results, and can serve as a reference for similar studies.
