Construction and Analysis of a Comprehensive Index for the Integration of Agricultural Resources
The ability to acquire and integrate agricultural resources is the key to enhancing agricultural competitiveness.This article proposes the theory of resource integration,which believes that agricultural competitiveness is reflected in the integration and utilization of agricultural resources.We have constructed an evaluation index system that includes six categories of resources:factor resources,related industry resources,demand resources,organizational resources,government resources,and opportunity resources.The entropy method is used to determine the weights of each indicator,and the comprehensive index of agricultural resource integration in China from 2001 to 2021 is calculated.The research results indicate that the comprehensive index of agricultural resource integration in China continues to improve,and the competitiveness of agriculture is enhanced;Element resources are the most important;The importance of related industry resources has decreased,and the importance of demand resources has exceeded that of related industry resources;The growth rate of agricultural resources lags behind population growth.Suggest continuing to improve agricultural technology level and explore international markets;Increase government funding and policy support;Promote the organization of small farmers.
