Income structural transformation of landless farmers is an urgent issue related to household livelihoods and social stability.Based on two-step micro-survey data of 621 landless farmers in Jiujiang and Xiangyang,this paper first surveys the status quo of China’s landless farmers’ income structural changes,and then further analyzes the heterogeneity of farmers’ income structural changes from different household occupation type,labor scale and land losing degree.The result shows that the proportion of agricultural income after land-requisition was sharply decreased comparing with the land acquisition stage,while the proportion of the wage income increased sharply.After land-requisition,the livelihood of landless farmers are more depending on the non-farming activities,especially the local non-agricultural activities,and the changes of farmers’ income structure showed significant differences by different household occupation type,labor scale and land losing degree.The agricultural income of pure farmers and part-agricultural farmers dropped significantly higher than the part-industry farmers and non-farmers.The bigger the labor force is,the more serious the land losing degree becomes,and the proportion of household wage income increases faster.
