In recent years, ecological immigrant is the effective way to solve the problem of poverty of the western minority areas.

Relying on the regional government state "Three West" agricultural development projects, the ecologically fragile, "Heaven for the poor" and "Xi-hai-gu" poverty-stricken population were staged move to the central Yellow River and Yellow River irrigation area of wasteland resources area, Combined with the actual Ningxia to immigration "hanging village" in the form of immigrants have set up 24 areas.In this article, the author chose Xingjing Town as a sample. Xingjing Town is the largest Muslim immigrants'town in Ningxia. In the article, the author chose the Hui immigrants as sample objects. The ownership of change of "Diaozhuang" is used as a clue. The author used the ethnological field survey and questionnaires as the basic research methods, in order to figure out the geographical identity status of the Immigrants of Xingjing Town.The author discovered through field survey, with the migration zone in 1999 vested the right to change, Xing Jing Town immigrants in their geographical identity and show a phase difference.

The author found that in the transition period, immigration to " Lu-cao-wa Diaozhuang people " and the regional identity is not only a positive identity, and in widespread use. In the run-in period, immigration to " Lu-cao-wa Diaozhuang people " and this showed a negative identity as a phenomenon, for a new regional identity-"Xing Jing Town," and showed a positive identification. The author thinks that the margirialization of immigrant communities and external pressure from the community is immigration the new main reasons for the geographical identity.In addition, Chapter IV of this paper mainly discusses the migration of the historical memory of "Shaanxi Hui" and "Jing Yuan" and identity.

To carry out large-scale ecological migration process, the resettlement of immigrants not only means of subsistence and household registration of the institutional arrangements and recognition of regional identity for the new immigrants, is the realization of "moving come, to stay too, the stability is maintained "The fundamental point, which must be given high priority.
