Popis: Farmers’ cognition on farmland abandonment and related land system was investigated in a village of Hebei province in China. The survey shows that: (1) The rural economic environment affects farmers’ cognition and behavior of farmland abandonment; (2) Farmers’ cognition on related rural land system is poor, and most farmers have willingness to improve their cognition; (3) The ways to increase farmers' cognition on related land system are not good enough, and the propaganda contents do not meet farmers’ cognitive demands. Conclusions: The methods of improving farmers’ cognition on rural land system should be diversified, and the contents should be designed according to farmers’ characteristics and demands.
