Research on spatiotemporal distribution pattern and influencing factors of Chinese forage industry
Forage is an important material foundation for the high-quality development of animal husbandry,and studying its industrial distribution pattern is of great value in ensuring national food safety and protecting the ecological environment.Analyze the spatiotemporal distribution pattern of Chinese forage industry through industrial concentration,spatial Gini coefficient,and center of gravity model,and empirically analyze the influencing factors of Chinese forage industry development using a fixed effects model.The results indicate that the overall clustering phenomenon of Chinese forage industry is characterized by an upward-downward-upward-downward trend,with the development focus shifting from North China to the Northwest and Northeast,and the speed of center of gravity shifting is slowing down,resulting in a relatively stable development pattern.The moisture index,lighting conditions,proportion of productive land for forage,virtual variables related to forage policies,agricultural smart platforms,mechanization level,and forage microbial fermentation and storage technology can all effectively promote the development of Chinese forage industry.The per capita consumption of meat products has not had an empowering effect on the development of Chinese forage industry,natural disasters will suppress the development of Chinese forage industry.
