Development of Non-timber Forest-based Economy and Practice of All-encompassing Approach to Food:Coupling Relationship and Collaborative Approach
All-encompassing approach to food is an important strategic concept for China to ensure food security,meet the diverse food needs of the people,and build a diversified food supply system in the new era.The non-timber forest-based economy is an industrial development mode that takes sustainable development as its concept,compound management as its principle,and the production of various types of forest food as its goal.The paper explains the connotation of non-timber forest-based economy from the four aspects of management concept,management region,type of product,and industrial form,and elaborates on the scientific connotation of the concept of all-encompassing approach to food in terms of production mode,production space,scope of concern,and areas of concern.It points out that the development of non-timber forest-based economy and the practice of all-encompassing approach to food can achieve mutual promotion and coordinated development through concept coupling,resource coupling,goal coupling,and structural coupling.The collaborative paths to promoting both non-timber forest-based economy and all-encompassing approach to food are proposed to promote the high-quality development of non-timber forest-based economy,practice the all-encompassing approach to food,and meet the needs of the people for a better life and achieves a healthy China and food security strategy,which includes improving the support system for non-timber forest-based economy to expand food sources,strengthening the technology system for non-timber forest-based products to improve food quality,constructing a market system for non-timber forest-based products to improve food supply capacity,and transforming the concept of development for non-timber forest-based economy development to effectively ensure food security.
