清代沁河流域水旱灾害治理与农业经济的发展

The Floods and Droughts Situation and Development of Agricultural Economy in the Area of Qin River In the Qing Dynasty

清代沁河流域水旱灾害发生频繁,影响沿岸各县的农业经济发展。沁河流域十个县的具体受灾次数与粮食产量以及人口数量的变化波动具有相关性。同时,由于沁河上下游地理环境相差较大,特别是下游大规模的水利工程发挥了巨大的防洪和灌溉效益,使得上下游粮食产量极其不均衡,而上游又是煤铁之乡,物产的互补性,加深了这一跨行政区区域的贸易流通关系。

In the Qing Dynasty, the floods and droughts frequently occurred in the area of Qin River, which influences the agricultural development of the counties along the coast. The fluctuation change of grain output and population of the ten counties in the area were related to the specific times of floods and droughts. At the same time,grain output in upstream and downstream were extremely imbalanced, due to the different geographical environment between them, especially the flood control and irrigation benefit in downstream caused by the large-scale water conservancy project. What’s more, as the upstream is rich in coal and iron, the complementary of property deepened the trade and circulation relationship of the cross administrative region.
