The basic contents of the "Outline of the Agrarian Reform System" are:
1. General Provisions
In addition to the land system of feudal and semi-feudal exploitation by the landlord class, the land ownership system of the trans-group group should be implemented to realize that the cultivators have their own land, so as to liberate the rural productive forces and develop agricultural production.
2. Confiscation and expropriation of land
(1) Abolish all landlords' land ownership rights, and abolish all usurious debts owed by the working people to the landlords, rich peasants, and usurers in the villages before the reform of the agrarian system.
(2) Confiscate all the landlord's land, farm animals, farm implements, surplus grain and his surplus houses in the countryside. However, the landlord's other property will not be confiscated, and a small number of landlords will be appropriately compensated.
(3) Expropriation of land for ancestral halls, temples, monasteries, public halls, schools, institutions and organizations, and appropriate compensation, and for schools, orphanages, nursing homes, hospitals and other undertakings that rely on the above-mentioned land income as maintenance expenses, the local government shall allocate funds to ensure their normal operation.
(4) Protect industry and commerce from infringement. Industries and commerce that are concurrently operated by landlords and their land and property directly used for the operation of industry and commerce shall not be confiscated. No encroachment on industry or commerce by confiscation of land property. The land of industrialists and businessmen in the countryside and the houses formerly inhabited by the peasants shall be expropriated. However, their other property and lawful business operations in rural areas should be protected and not infringed upon.
3. Classification of rural areas
(1) Landlords. It refers to a person who occupies land, does not work by himself, or only has incidental labor, but makes a living by renting land and collecting land rent, and also lends money and hires labor
Those who run businesses and businesses, manage public courts, and collect school rents are called landlords.
A person who also participates in the main agricultural work all the year round, or at the same time hires people to cultivate a part of the land, and rents out the main part of the land, and the amount of leased land exceeds the amount of land cultivated by himself and hired people by more than twice (e.g., renting out 200 mu, and cultivating less than 100 mu by self and hired people) shall also be called landlords.
A person who mainly has income from other occupations, but still occupies a large amount of agricultural land, does not engage in labor, leases land, and collects land rent is called a landlord of other components and should be treated as a landlord;
Those who help landlords collect rents, stewards, masters, and cleaners, and who rely on landlords to exploit peasants as their main source of livelihood, and whose living conditions exceed those of ordinary middle peasants, should be treated as an example with landlords;
A person who rents a large amount of land from a landlord, but does not work himself, subleases the land to others, and earns a living by collecting rent, and whose living conditions exceed those of ordinary middle peasants, are called second landlords. Second, the landlord should be treated as an example with the landlord.
(2) Kulaks. It refers to the possession of a part of the land, or the possession of a part of the land and the lease of another part of the land, or the possession of no land at all, and the whole land is rented. Rich peasants are called rich peasants who generally possess relatively good means of production and activity capital, participate in agricultural production and labor on their own, but also rely on renting land but not exceeding the amount of land cultivated by themselves and hired people, collect land rent, lend money, or wage labor, and operate industry and commerce.
A kulak who leases more land than he cultivates and hires cultivates, but does not meet the criteria of a landlord, is called a semi-landlord kulak.
(3) Middle peasants. It refers to the possession of a part of the land, or the possession of a part of the land and the lease of another part of the land, or the possession of no land at all, and the whole land is rented. The middle peasants themselves had considerable means of production. Those who depend entirely on their own labor for their livelihood, or mainly on their own labor, are called middle peasants. The middle peasants generally did not lease land, did not sell their labor, or sold a small amount of labor.
A person who participates in agricultural production and labor on his own, but also relies on renting land but does not exceed 20 percent of the amount of land cultivated by himself or by hired people, collects land rent, lends money, or wages labor, and engages in industry and commerce to obtain income is called a wealthy middle peasant.
(4) Poor peasants. It refers to the possession of a small part of land with incomplete tools, or the absence of land at all, but only some incomplete tools. In general, land had to be rented for farming, and those who received rent, debt and a small part of wage farm labor were poor peasants.
The middle peasants generally did not sell their labor, or sold a small amount of labor. The poor peasants had to sell a part of their labor power, and this was the main criterion for separating the middle peasants from the poor peasants.
(5) Hired farmers (workers). It refers to the absence of land and tools, or only a very small part of the land and tools, and the sale of labor power wholly or mainly for a living.
(6) Lessors of small land. It refers to a person who owns a small part of the land, but leases the land because he is engaged in other occupations, or because of the lack of labor in the family, is called a small land lessor, and may not be regarded as a landlord.
(7) Enlightened landlords and gentry. It refers to certain individuals in the landlord class who actively support the cause of the crossing group, and who support the power of the crossing group and sponsor the land reform.
(8) Families of soldiers and martyrs. Refers to soldiers who have joined the KPA and have gone through the normal procedures for discharge, as well as their parents, wives (or husbands), sons, daughters, and younger siblings under the age of 16.

It refers to a person who mainly lives in rural areas, owns a small number of hand tools, workshops, raw materials and other means of production, engages in independent handicraft production, and sells his finished products as the whole or main source of livelihood, called rural small handicraftsmen, or independent producers. Small-scale artisans generally do not employ workers, sometimes auxiliary assistants and apprentices, and occupy a small amount of land, but still rely on their own handicraft labour as their main source of livelihood. It can be seen as similar to the middle peasantry.
(10) Bullies. It refers to a person who relies on or forms a reactionary force to dominate one side and often uses violence and power to oppress and plunder the people for the sake of private interests, causing heavy losses to the people's lives and property.
