ANALYSIS ON THE COORDINATED DEVELOPMENT AND OBSTACLE FACTORS OF AGRICULTURAL ECO-ECONOMIC SYSTEM IN SHANXI PROVINCE
Taking Shanxi province as an example,this research explores the coordinated development level,evolution trends and limiting factors of its agricultural eco economic system,which is essential for the integration of total agricultural factors and promoting the high-quality sustainable agricultural development.This study comprehensively used entropy method,coupling and coordinated development model and restriction factor identification model to analyze the coupling and coordination degree,as well as obstacle factors of agricultural resource utilization-ecological environment-economic development system(REE system),and it also explored the development level,evolution trends,and limiting factors of Shanxi REE system from 2010 to 2020,both at provincial and city level.The results were listed as follows.(1)During the study period,the REE system at the provincial level was basically at a low to medium level,and revealed a decreasing trend at first and then increased.The agricultural economic development and the ecological environment had been improved,but the level of resource utilization decreased.The coupling coordination level from 2010 to 2012 was slightly discoordinated,and then entered the stage of near-disorder from 2013 to 2016,while increased to barely coordination from 2017 to 2020.(2)At the city level,Taiyuan had the highest development level,which was transitioning to a mild coordinated development.The lowest development was found in Yangquan and Yuncheng,other cities were at a relatively lower level.The changing trend of development level in Taiyuan and Datong was stable,while relatively fluctuate in Xinzhou,Linfen and Luliang.The coupling coordination level of Taiyuan,Datong,and Changzhi were barely coordinated,and Jincheng and Jinzhong were near-discorded.The other six cities were slightly disorganized.(3)13 indicators were identified as the major obstacle factors.In summary,the overall level of the REE system in Shanxi province is low to medium,the coupling degree is high,while the coupling coordination degree is relatively low.The coordination level is increasing year by year,showing an orderly development trend.In recent years,Shanxi province has made progress in resource-based economy transformation,but the supporting role of resources on economic development is weakening.The restrictiveness from the aspects of industrial structure,water resources,cultivated land resources,environmental pollution and governance become prominent.Especially in Lvliang,Linfen and Yuncheng,which are in the southwestern part of Shanxi province,their industrial structure and resource environment need to be optimized.
