A sound rural land management system can effectively address current issues of resource constraints and wastage, promote rational land use, and provide institutional support for implementing the rural revitalization strategy. Based on this, the article examines the importance of improving rural land management systems for rational land resource utilization, systematically analyzes existing operational challenges, and proposes practical approaches to enhance these systems. The study aims to offer theoretical references and practical guidance for advancing market-oriented allocation of rural land resources, safeguarding farmers’ land rights, and facilitating comprehensive rural revitalization.</abstract><keywords>Rural land management; Management system; Land resources; Rational utilization</keywords></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="B1" content-type="article"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Tan Z, 2025, Problems in Land Resource Utilization and Their Solutions.
