农业生态与漕运兴废——以鲁西为个案

Agricultural Ecology and Rise and Fall of Canal Transport:A Case Study of Western Shandong Province

明朝和清前期,国家为保障运河漕运,严禁沿运河两岸农民引用运河和其他河湖之水灌溉田地,致使鲁西农田水利事业荒废,农业生产受到很大损失。运河停漕后,山东运河流域河道淤塞、闸坝失修的现象日趋严重,招致沉粮地和缓征地面积大增,山东西部生态环境严重恶化。

In Ming and early Qing Dynasties, farmers in areas along the Grand Canal were prohibited from irrigation with water from the Grand Canal, rivers or lakes to ensure canal transport, which brought serious influences to farmland irrigation and caused great losses in agricultural production. After the canal transport was ceased, rivers in the areas were silted up and dams were left in disrepair, which led to the deterioration of ecological environment in western Shandong Province.
