in morphology and function of the performance of megapolis agriculture, particularly
in China's coastal cities and developed regions,a new form of agriculture--urban
agriculture is gradually taking shape.According to the request of the suburbs of the city,
Beijing conference on the outskirts of the city by 2003 had a clear strategy goal for the
urban agricultural development.
Based on the comprehensive fields-research,the establishment of a new
comprehensive index system,the paper has an objective evaluation of the level of
Beijing urban agriculture,and through the establishment of the three-efficiency
indicators, an assessment systematically the function of the urban agriculture, through
which propose the obstacles to the development of urban agriculture and the major
factors affecting the development of urban agriculture,and the upgrading relevant
channels. Finally, the article to explore patterns and spatial distribution of urban and
agricultural development has provided an important basis for the choice. Also put
forward policy proposals and implementation is quite feasible.
The points of innovation of the paper: First,through the entire investigation and
research of the urban agriculture,and learn from the development experience of the
developed countries combined with Beijing's basic city,established a fairly good
indicator of the level of assessment, the development of urban agriculture; Secondly,
through the analytic hierarchy process(AHP) of SPSS for giving reasonable weight for
the 19 selected indicators based on Beijing city of 1998-2005 year data to make a
comprehensive analysis,so as to make a scientific, objective evaluation;Thirdly,
through the establishment of three indicators system of economic, social and ecological
benefits, to evaluate the economical,social and ecological functions of Beijing urban
agriculture, the basic trend in the development of urban agriculture is concluded, and
meanwhile, analyzing the indicators contributing factor to the development of urban
agriculture respectively,and proposing the suggestions for the future development
options and countermeasures of the Beijing urban agriculture model.
In this paper the following conclusions proposed: First,the speed of urban
agriculture development is not fast, to some extent, but still in an early stage of
analysis. restricting the development speed of urban agriculture is the scarcity of water
