米脂县退耕还林(草)可持续发展研究

Sustainable Development of the Grain for Green Program in Mizhi County

农户是退耕还林(草)的主体,他们的经济行为和认知响应对退耕还林(草)工程的实施具有重要的作用。基于参与性农村评估调查(participatory rural appraisal,PRA)方法,对米脂县退耕区8个行政村的325户退耕农户的退耕认知、退耕后家庭收入结构进行调查研究。研究表明,虽然农户对退耕还林工程持支持态度,但是巩固退耕还林(草)成果,保证退耕还林(草)工程的可持续发展,必须调整农业产业结构,提高农户收入。为此,需要协调好3个方面的关系:(1)劳务输出与退耕区的发展;(2)退耕区与农业产业发展;(3)农业补贴与农户增收。

This paper presents an analysis of the Grain for Green program in Mizhi County with Participatory Rural Appraisal. Pertinent data were collected through a questionnaire survey to local households, because they are the main stakeholder groups of the program. The questionnaire survey covers local people＇s attitudes to the program and the follow-up farmer income structure. Study shows that although the farmers are in sup- port of the Grain for Green program, we must adjust agricultural structure and improve farmer income in order to ensure the sustainable development of the Grain for Green program. The relationships for the three aspects are also necessary to coordinate for the consolidation of the Grain for Green program： （1） the relationship between export of labor services and development of the program implementing area; （2） the relation- ship between the program implementing area and agriculture industry development; （3） relationships be- tween agricultural subsidies and farmer income.
