Abstract: Using "limiting factor" evaluation method, we make survey and evaluation of reserve arable land resources in Makit County. The results show that 9876.1 ha of land resources can be reclaimed in the county; there is no mining land to be reclaimed; 9447.58 ha of grassland can be reclaimed, and it is mainly distributed in Gazikule Township and Kizilawat Township. We make the following recommendations: broadening investment channels and increasing capital investment for arable land consolidation; combining unused land development and environmental protection; making suitability evaluation of reserve arable land resources and determining reasonable direction and path of development and reclamation.
