Abstract: Developing forestry cooperatives is an important measure to deepen the reform of the collective forest right system. Sample data collected from 239 forest farmers in Hebei, Hunan and Fujian Provinces were analyzed using the Logistic model for willingness of the farmers to participate in forestry cooperatives. Results show that willingness of the farmers varied with the region; In regions where the policy system is mature and well implemented, and forestry cooperatives develop well, the farmers therein are relatively more willing to participate. Besides, education level, any attendance to forestry technical training and education, and forestry income are also major factors negatively affecting willingness of the farmers, while the number of woodlots a farmer owns is another that positively affects his willingness.
