试论沙产业的基本属性及其发展条件

Discussion on the Attribute of Desert-culture Industry and the Condition of Its Development

沙产业是我国著名科学家钱学森于1984年在为中国农业科学院科技委所作的专题报告中首先提出来的。沙产业是一种完全不同于传统农业生产方式的"农业型知识密集的产业类型"。随着人口的不断增加和人类生活水平的不断提高,加之城市、道路面积的扩大,人类必然会寻找开发新的农业生产资源。沙漠地区光热资源丰富,具有生产高碳水化合物的条件。发展沙产业是人类社会发展的必由之路。然而,发展沙产业是需要具备一定条件的,真正意义上的沙产业并不是目前水平上的沙漠地区的"温棚种植"和"温棚养殖",更不是在种植沙生经济植物。尽管目前我们还无法预测真正意义上的沙产业何时才能到来,尽管目前我们的探索还不是真正意义上的沙产业,然而,我们的探索正是在朝着沙产业在迈进。

The desert-culture industry was advanced by renowned scientist Qian Xue-shen in the special topic report on the science and technology committee of China agricultural academy in 1984. The desert-culture industry is an 'knowledge-intensive agricultural industry', it is completely different from traditional agricultural productive way. Along with population increase constantly and human living standard rise year by year, furthermore cities and road aresa are expanded, the human will inevitably seek and develop the new agricultural productive resources. The desert areas are rich with light and hot resources and have the conditions of planting high carbohydrate crops. The desert-culture development is the way human must follow in social development. However, the desert-culture development must needs the certain requirement, desert-culture actually is not 'the warm awning plant' and 'the warm awning cultivation' on present desert areas, is not 'planting economical crops in the desert as well. Although at present we are unable to forecast when real desert-culture industry will come true, or our research don't touch real desert-culture industry, but however, our exploration is going forward.
