Coordinated Development of Ecological Protection and Agricultural Modernization in the Yellow River Basin:Characteristics,Causes,and Optimization Pathways
This article starts from the practical logic of the coupling coordination between ecological protection and ag-ricultural modernization in the Yellow River basin,and based on the coupling coordination mechanism of the two,uses rele-vant data from 9 provinces and regions in the Yellow River basin from 2012 to 2021 for quantitative analysis.Research has found that the comprehensive level of the coordination subsystem between ecological protection and agricultural moderniza-tion in the Yellow River basin is showing an upward trend,and the overall level of agricultural modernization development is weaker than the level of ecological protection.The coupling coordination degree shows a changing characteristic of"slow growth,stable fluctuation,and stable growth".The driving force for the coordinated development of ecological protection and agricultural modernization in the Yellow River basin,from strong to weak,is driven by development,government regu-lation,and endowment.Finally,this article uses grayscale prediction method for analysis and finds that the coupling coordi-nation degree will maintain a stable upward trend during the 14th Five-Year Plan period,but still cannot reach a high level of coordination by the end of the 14th Five-Year Plan.Based on qualitative and quantitative analysis of the two major sys-tems in the Yellow River basin,combined with analysis of obstacles and driving forces.
