The coupling effect of converting farmland into forestland ecological economic system based on the farmers w ell-being in the earth-rock mountains areas of loess plateau-A case study of Ningw u County
According to the local geographical conditions , the characteristics of the natural ecological environment and social‐economic development level ,this paper chose Ningwu County in northwest Shanxi Province as the research object and constructed the coupled ecological economic systems of converting farmland into forests by the coupling coordinative degree systems , and analyzed the process and mechanism of the influence of converting farmland into forests on farmers well‐being . The results suggested that , from 2001 to 2011 , the ecological environment comprehensive index and farmers well‐being comprehensive index both gradually increase with almost same grow th rate . From 2001 to 2006 , the ecological environment comprehensive index is bigger than the latter , and on the contrary , from 2006 to 2011 ,the latter is bigger than the former .On the whole ,ecological environment and farmers well‐being in Ningwu County are in a lower level . The coupling coordination of the compound ecological economic system is gradually improved ,which gradually transforms from synchronous type of reluctant coordination development with well‐being and ecology to synchronous type of primary coordination development with w ell‐being and ecology .
