Abstract:

Agro-ecosystem service value is related to people’s welfare and lays a solid foundation for the rural ecological revitalization. The research on the agro-ecosystem service value assessment is to provide a basis for strengthening the protection of agro-ecological environment. Taking agro-ecosystem service value of Sichuan Province as a research object, this paper calculated the coefficient of social development stage by combining Peal growth curve model and Engel coefficient based on the equivalent factor method of unit area value, and calculated the value of agro-ecosystem service of Sichuan from 2000 to 2017. The results showed: (1) the agricultural land in Sichuan was dominated by forest land and grass land from 2000 to 2017, the change of agricultural land showed that the area of cultivated land, grass land and water decreased, while the area of garden land and forest land increased; (2) the value of agro-ecosystem service changed significantly from 2000 to 2017 in Sichuan with an increase of 2.79 times, of which the increment of ecological service value of forest land accounted for 73.64% of the total increment; (3) each agro-ecosystem service value sorting remained unchanged from 2000 to 2017 in Sichuan, the values of soil conservation, hydrological regulation and biodiversity maintenance were obviously higher than other functions, accounting for nearly 50% of the total value. By calculating the coefficient of social development stage, the theoretical evaluation value of agro-ecosystem service value was modified, so that the evaluation result can better reflect agro-ecosystem service value in different social development stages.
