长江经济带农业发展的现状特征与模式转型

本文基于统计数据揭示长江经济带农业发展的现状特征,并结合农业农村发展范式及其演化的回顾,探讨新时期长江经济带农业发展模式转型及其基本策略。研究发现：长江经济带作为我国最重要的农业生产区域之一,近年来农业综合生产能力虽不断提升,但产品产量和产业产值占全国的比重呈下降趋势;农产品国际贸易呈现良好态势,但农产品加工业发展仍较薄弱;农业生产化学品投入强度不断提高,带来的环境问题函待解决;农业发展的新业态不断涌现,工资性收入成为农民收入的主体和动力源。新时期长江经济带的农业发展应充分吸收多功能农业生产和网络化乡村发展范式的有益成分,激发内生动力、整合外部动力,以全国粮食生产核心区、现代农业先行区、农产加工优势区、特色农业产业带为关键目标,实现“七大转变”,着力推进区域农业的多功能转型。深化相关改革、加大财政投入、鼓励创新创业、优化区域布局、加强区域合作、强化村镇建设是实现转型的重要保障。     

福建省乡村发展水平及主导类型划定

乡村发展水平测度是美丽乡村建设规划编制的重要依据和基础。在构建福建省乡村发展水平评价指标体系的基础上,从县域层面测度并划定福建省乡村发展水平的基本特征及主导类型。结果表明:1福建省乡村发展增长趋势显著,闽南地区、北部地区、闽西小部分地区具有较明显的区域特色,不同区域在不同时期内乡村发展水平具有波动性;2福建省乡村发展受地理、资源、经济、文化等方面的影响痕迹明显,特色农业现代化、新型城镇化及新农村建设等是主要驱动因素;3将福建省乡村发展类型划分为工商业导向型(Ⅰ)、农工业导向型(Ⅱ)、农工商导向型(Ⅲ)、农业主导型(Ⅳ)4个基本类型。针对不同类型区的优势、潜力和限制因素进行政策导向分析与对策建议。     

中国西南岩溶生态系统特征与石漠化综合治理对策

以贵州省为核心的中国西南岩溶区面临双重危机：生态恶劣,石漠化严重;人口贫困,全国1/3强的贫困县分布在该地区。石漠化综合治理需要从岩溶生态系统结构和运行规律出发,重点关注岩溶地下水的开发和可持续利用,水土保持和土壤改良,植被恢复和可适应性的经济植物选择,力求区域生态经济双赢、农民脱贫致富。     

中国市场群落发展机制

市场群落的崛起已成为21世纪初中国市场经济发展的新景观，在概述市场群落的基本特点后，揭示其形成和演化的动力机制；继而对单个市场与群落型市场上经营者的行为方式特征进行了比较分析，表明群落型市场具有多方面的竞争优势；指出市场群落的空间扩张还促进了经济国际化与本地化的有机融合发展，同时认为，市场群落持续发展的根本在于保证商人的可持续发展，并提出了相应的对策建议。     

区域经济一体化的国际国内经验及其对长株潭经济一体化的启示

区域经济一体化是二战后世界经济发展的重要特征，长株潭经济一体化既符合世界经济发展的潮流，又有利于尽快构筑一个带动湖南经济迅速成长的核心增长极，国际国内的经验表明，长株潭经济一体化需要制订科学的近、中、远期发展战略与发展规划，需要把技术创新放在重中之重，需要重视跨地区、跨行业、跨所有制企业集团的组建与发展，需要实行外向开放型的一体化战略，需要尽快建立权威性的综合协调机构。     

Employment and Socio-spatial Relations in Australia's Cultural Economy

This paper examines the significance and contribution of Australian 'creative' industry activities in light of recent debates on the emergence of the 'cultural economy of cities'. First, census employment data and business location counts are used to illustrate patterns of metropolitan primacy and concentration in the cultural industries both across states and in Sydney. Second, the specificities of the locations of cultural production, and the links between cultural industry activities and wider urban-regional change are explored in more detail. A set of observations of urban-regional change is used to demonstrate how the notion of 'cultural economy' should include complex interactions between the material activities of consumers and producers, and the discursive worlds of image makers and place marketers. Urban renewal, housing market pressures and intra-regional migration all mediate Australian experiences of the 'cultural economy'. Such interactions, in addition to key quantitative data on employment and business activity, suggest important policy considerations.     

江苏省区域发展空间结构研究

沿沪宁线高新技术产业带、沿江基础产业带和沿东陇海加工产业带是江苏省区域发展三大重点轴线,简称为"三沿"."三沿"战略对江苏省区域发展起到重要的作用,但它存在着一定的问题,它忽视了省内南北之间的协调发展,同时,没有将全省发展置于长三角一体化之中.基于这样考虑,作者提出"一圈五轴"的发展战略,并提出整合资源、跨江联动、突出沿江轴线的可持续性,提升沿沪宁轴线高新技术创新能力,重视对沿海轴线的开发,加快发展东陇海和内陆轴线开发等重要建议.     

第四纪环境研究新理论

On the basis of extensive survey to the Quatemary paleosols, soils and weathering layers in the vast northern China and the Loess Plateau, we found some unusually special phenomena of chemical components such as unsuccessive illuvium, twin illuviums, unusually thick illuvium and multi-illuviums etc. According to the analysis on the content of CaCO3 and the data of penetrating experiment, a new theory of illuvial depth or removal depth of CaCO3 in weathering and leaching belt was constructed, which indicates that the time of CaCO3 removing to the illuvial depth is very short,and the effect of time factor on illuvial depth can be ignored. The theory can be taken as a credible foundation for studying many geological and geographical problems in weathering and leaching belt.When the illuvial depth of CaCO3 iS bigger than the thickness of developing belt of soil or paleosol, it can be determined that the paleosol has turned into weathering crust. When the illuvial depth of CaCO3 is bigger than the thickness of paleosol, paleosol is leaching moderately acid soil. When two, three layers or unusually thick CaCO3 illuviums exist in the same weathering section or at the bottom of the same paleosol, there were two or more periods forming paleosol and corresponding climatic stages at that time. On the basis of the equation of relationship between mean annual rainfall (y) and illuvial depth of CaCO3 (x) (y = 305.5x 168.5) determined in the paper, mean annual precipitation during the development of paleosol can be calculated.     

Transfer of Taiwanese ideas and technology to The Gambia, West Africa: a viable approach to rural development?

The development of Taiwan's agricultural sector contributed significantly to the country's transformation from virtual poverty after World War II to a modern industrial nation. Success resulted from the use of appropriate technologies, developed through an exceptionally close working relationship between government, research and development institutions, extension services and farmers in Taiwan. As part of their overseas development aid programme, the Republic of China on Taiwan has established Technical Missions in those developing countries where it receives political recognition. Among these is The Gambia, West Africa, where one focus of Taiwan's current Technical Mission is the development of women's market gardens. Although the gardens have proved successful, there is doubt as to whether their achievements will be sustained once Taiwan's Technical Mission in The Gambia has ended. Field research in Taiwan and in The Gambia, based largely on participatory techniques, has revealed that the low-tech methods introduced from Taiwan are appropriate for the Gambian environment. However, much depends on whether women participating in the schemes can commit sufficient time and energy to the gardens, as at present this is a limiting factor. The potential of the gardens may also be constrained by a lack of appropriate institutional infrastructure, particularly the scope for profitable disposal of garden produce. A major conclusion of the article is that successful transfer of appropriate technology to The Gambia is likely to be impeded by poorly developed coordination between groups that proved to be key 'players' in the development of agriculture in Taiwan: government, research and development institutions, extension services and producers.
