Evaluation of agricultural green development level based on entropy-weighted TOPSIS model:a case study of Henan Province
Green agriculture is a new model of modern agricultural development.The level of agricultural green development reflects the comprehensive strength of modern agriculture.By evaluating the level of agricultural green development in Henan Province,it can provide guidance for building a strong province of modern agriculture.The TOPSIS model based on the entropy-weighted method was used to construct a comprehensive evaluation index for agricultural green development,which included 14 indexes from the four dimensions of resource conservation,environmental friendliness,ecological conservation,and quality and efficiency.The dynamic changes of agricultural green development level were analyzed in Henan Province from 2007 to 2021,as well as the level of agricultural green development(based on the average values of 2019,2020,and 2021)in its 18 jurisdiction cities.The results indicated that the comprehensive evaluation index of agricultural green development in Henan Province showed a fluctuating upward trend,but the index was still at a low level.In addition,the levels of agricultural green development among different cities in Henan Province were quite different,and those in the western regions were significantly lower than those in the other regions.According to the cluster analysis results,different cities in Henan Province could be divided into three types:zone Ⅰ(modern agricultural regions),zone Ⅱ(traditional agricultural regions),and zone Ⅲ(urban agricultural development regions).In summary,all regions should be based on local resource endowments and in response to the needs of national development strategies,adapt to local conditions,focus on breaking through weak links,and further promote the process of agricultural green development in Henan Province.
