Abstract: As a new economic form, the digital economy can inject new vitality into the reform of collective forest tenure system with its unique advantages. Leveraging its technology, it can effectively address the practical obstacles of traditional forest tenure systems, such as difficulties in rights confirmation, transfer, financing, and supervision. However, during the digital empowerment of collective forest tenure reform, legal challenges persist, including an incomplete legal framework, inadequate rights protection mechanisms, inefficient supervision and enforcement mechanisms, and a shortage of digital legal talent. These issues constrain the indepth advancement of digitally driven forest tenure reform. In response to the above issues, the following legal protection measures are proposed: improving the legal system, establishing sound rules for protecting rights and interests, strengthening the effectiveness of supervision and management, and building a system for cultivating and introducing digital legal talents. This will form an ecological rule of law that is driven by digital technology, institutional protection, and balance of rights and interests, providing a more stable, fair, and sustainable guarantee for the reform of the collective forest tenure system empowered by digital technology.
