Abstract:

Emergy analysis can be applied to quantitative analysis and the evaluation of recycling agriculture.The paper utilized this method to make an empirical analysis on the recycling agriculture of Yinhe Ecological Agriculture Co.,Ltd.in Wuhan,Hubei Province.The results indicated that separated intensive breeding farms combined with land transference could develop the sixinonecycle typical patterns of recycling agriculture,"pigbiogas fertilizerlandvegetablesfishvillage".Compared with the separated agricultural production systems of rice,wheat,rapeseed,cotton,vegetables,citrus fruits,pigs,and fish,the former showed better performance in emergy transformity,updatable rate,emergy investment rate,emergy selfsufficiency rate,the net emergy yield,environmental load ratio,and emergy exchange ratio.Therefore,to upgrade recycling agriculture need not only strengthen the methodology of research,but also improve agricultural infrastructure,accelerate scientific and technological innovation,extend the industrial chain and so on.
