Research On Village Greening Status And The Relationship With Village Greening And Economic Development In Shandong Province

Currently,China is in an important stage of implementing the rural rejuvenation greening and beautification project.Village greening is an important part of the rural rejuvenation greening and beautification project,and it gets more and more social attention.However,there are some unresolved issues in village greening.For example,reasonable greening mode determination in villages of different types,the contribution of village greening to rural economic,social and cultural development,and the residents' demand for village greening,etc.Therefore,this paper is a systematic research of village greening,so as to provide an important reference for the implementation of rural revitalization greening and beautification project,and provide guidance for local specific village greening work.Typical sampling method was used to extract 80 villages in Shandong Province.Villages were divided into different types based on topography,construction type,economic model,and distance from city.Basic data of village greening status was obtained by field survey.By random access to residents,388 valid questionnaires were obtained.Through data analysis,the greening status in villages of different types,the main reasons affecting the village greening level,the impact of rural forest-related industries on local economic development,and the problems in rural forestry industry development were explored.The main results are as follows:(1)There are significant differences in village greening status of different topography,and construction types.The village forest coverage rate in mountain area is significantly higher than plain and coastal village.The road greening rate in newly-built village is significantly higher than that in transformed village.The public recreation spaces number in protected village is significantly higher than that in new and transformed village.(2)The current village greening status can basically meet the residents' demand.More than 80% of residents are satisfied with the village greening overall status and street greening status.Less than 70% of residents are satisfied with the courtyard greening status.More than 70% of residents are satisfied with the forest around village.The differences in overall village greening satisfaction degree from residents,who live in the village with different topography,and economic models are significant.The primary reason why villagers are dissatisfied with the village greening to improve the living environment is that the street greening is too simple,followed by unsightly courtyard greening and unsightly waterfront greening.The lack of government branch's greening subsidies and planning guidance are the main factors restricting the village greening development.The reasons restricting village greening are significantly affected by economic models.(3)The differences in tree species use opinions are comparatively large.Most residents tend to use evergreen broad-leaf tree species,flower-viewing tree species,and ornamental flowers,in order to build recreational parks and green landscapes that are beneficial to tourism.However,The differences in greening tree species demand from residents,who live in the village with different construction types,economic models,and different educational level are significant.The differences in village greening forest types demand from residents,whose are different ages are significant.(4)The differences in village greening demand are comparatively large.57.10% of residents have an urgent demand for village greening.The male residents' demand for village greening is significantly higher than females.The residents' demand is rather high in the road greening,courtyard greening,rural green way and park construction.But the differences in village greening overall demand from residents,who are lived in the village with different urban distance,construction types are extremely significant.(5)Industrial development is still an important goal of village greening.52.3% of residents are satisfied with the rural forest-related industries development status.The impact of forest-related industry on promoting rural residents' income is from large to small is as follows: fruit tree cultivation> forest-related enterprises development > nursery cultivation> rural tourism development.The contribution of forest-related industry to the promotion of rural residents' employment from large to small is as follows: forest-related enterprises development > fruit tree planting> timber forest development.For the demand of under-forest economic development,residents are more inclined to forest fruits,forest flowers,followed by forest vegetables,forest grass,forest birds.(6)The differences in residents' dissatisfaction reasons for forest-related industry overall development status are extremely different.The low income of economic forests is the primary reason,followed by the lack of tourism income and fewer forest products production and processing enterprises.The primary difficulty in rural forest-related industries development is insufficient funding support,followed by inadequate policy support and small industry scale.The primary problem in economic forest development is the inadequate market demand forecast,but the backwardness of economic forest varieties and the inadequate popularization of cultivation techniques are also difficulties that cannot be ignored.
