In the past 40 years, China has experienced an unprecedented transformation of the rural society and livelihoods and self-subsistence forest management has transitioned to more business-oriented management, typically the Forestry Cooperatives, Family Forestry Farms and Forestry Specialized Households identified in this study. We explored the factors contributing to this transformation using household survey data in seven provinces in 2016. The age and education of the household heads, income, the holding areas of cropland, ecological forest, forestland, leasing forestland, and legally contracted forestland and their located provinces were found to be statistically significant in transforming the household’s forest management. The factors that drive transformation to various ownership types show some variations as well. The findings can help us better understand not only the transformation of forest management, but also the rural economy and society in general. The results have policy implication on how to further facilitate forest management transformation.
