  • Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China
    Country Report for the Preparation of the First Report on the State of the World’s Animal Genetic Resources Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China June 2003 Beijing CONTENTS Executive Summary Biological diversity is the basis for the existence and development of human society and has aroused the increasing great attention of international society. In June 1992, more than 150 countries including China had jointly signed the "Pact of Biological Diversity". Domestic animal genetic resources are an important component of biological diversity, precious resources formed through long-term evolution, and also the closest and most direct part of relation with human beings. Therefore, in order to realize a sustainable, stable and high-efficient animal production, it is of great significance to meet even higher demand for animal and poultry product varieties and quality by human society, strengthen conservation, and effective, rational and sustainable utilization of animal and poultry genetic resources. The "Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China" (hereinafter referred to as the "Report") was compiled in accordance with the requirements of the "World Status of Animal Genetic Resource " compiled by the FAO. The Ministry of Agriculture" (MOA) has attached great importance to the compilation of the Report, organized nearly 20 experts from administrative, technical extension, research institutes and universities to participate in the compilation team. In 1999, the first meeting of the compilation staff members had been held in the National Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Service, discussed on the compilation outline and division of labor in the Report compilation, and smoothly fulfilled the tasks to each of the compilers.

Quantitative evaluation and research on the ecosystem water supply services in this area are beneficial for developing conservation planning and establishing ecological compensation mechanisms in water conservation areas. In this paper, based on the land use, meteorological, soil, and field observation data of the research area, the InVEST water yield model is used to estimate the water supply of the ecosystem in the Zhangcheng District. The model quantitatively analyzes the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of water supply services in the basin and the influence of different topographic factors. The results show that the average supply of ecosystem water in the Zhangcheng District is approximately 45 mm, and there is a degree of spatial heterogeneity. The total water supply in the Zhangcheng District is relatively small. The water resource supply in the southwest is relatively small, the rainfall in mountainous Citation: Liu, R.; Niu, X.; Wang, B.; forest areas in the southeast is high, its water supply is higher, and the supply of forest land water is ◦ ◦ Song, Q.

    The Use and Usefulness of Irrigation Property Reform for Sustainable Agriculture Yi Cui, Jing You, Jiujie Ma, Renmin University of China, [email protected] Selected Poster prepared for presentation at the 2019 Agricultural & Applied Economics Association Annual Meeting, Atlanta, GA, July 21-23 Copyright 2019 by [Yi Cui, Jing You, Jiujie Ma]. All rights reserved. Readers may make verbatim copies of this document for non-commercial purposes by any means, provided that this copyright notice appears on all such copies. The Use and Usefulness of Irrigation Property Reform for Sustainable Agriculture The curfew tolls the knell of parting day, The lowing herd wind slowly o’er the lea The ploughman homeward plods his weary way, And leaves the world to darkness and to me. -- by Thomas Gray Abstract: By utilising a recent reform on irrigation property rights in rural China and a unique plot-crop-level panel dataset with 1,106 plots out of 413 households over the period 2013-2017, we assess the causal impact of irrigation property reform on rural households’ adoption of different irrigation technologies and investigate the underlying mechanisms. The Chinese government piloted a reform of water rights in 2014. Prior to it, irrigation water used for agricultural production was free. After clearly defining and allocating the water rights for each well (either dug, driven or drilled ones) in the village, rural households began to pay water fees in agricultural production in 2015. To address heterogeneous treatment effects conditional on the initial structures of the irrigation property (including the privately-owned, jointly owned between the farmer(s) and the village committee, or collectively owned by the village committee), we apply a difference-in- difference-in-difference (DDD) strategy to the plot panel data, where we compare the evolution of outcomes in villages that have had the reform in villages that have not yet implemented the reform.

  • Water Resources Vulnerability Assessment Based on the Parametric-System Method: a Case Study of the Zhangjiakou Region of Guanting Reservoir Basin, North China
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Procedia Environmental ProcediaProcedia Environmental Environmental Sciences Sciences 8 (20 1311 (2012)) 1231 1204–1239 – 1212 Sciences www.elsevier.com/locate/procedia The 18th Biennial Conference of the International Society for Ecological Modelling Water Resources Vulnerability Assessment based on the Parametric-system Method: a Case Study of the Zhangjiakou Region of Guanting Reservoir Basin, North China X. Wanga*, F.B. Maa, J.Y. Lib aKey Laboratory of MOE for Water and Sediment Sciences, State Key Laboratory of Water Environment Simulation, School of Environment, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, China bCNPC Research Institute of Safety and Environment Technology, Beijing 100083, China Abstract A water resources vulnerability (WRV) assessment is important to maintain water resources safety in a basin. In this paper, an index system, including four subsystems -- the hydrological subsystem, the socioeconomic subsystem, the eco-environment subsystem and the hydraulic engineering subsystem, is constructed for an integrated WRV assessment of the Zhangjiakou region of the Guanting Reservoir Basin, North China. The parametric-system (PS) method based on background value is used for the quantitative WRV assessment of each subsystem and of the integrated water resources system. The results of the calculations show that the degree of vulnerability of Guanting Reservoir Basin is quite serious, with Zhangjiakou City being extremely vulnerable, and Yanqing County and Zhuolu County mildly vulnerable. The assessment process and results, as well as the characteristics of the method used, have been compared with those of the fuzzy optimization (FO) method and the grey relational analysis (GRA) method. The parametric-system (PS) method is appropriate for level classification and rank analysis of many samples in the system, with the obvious advantage of employing the simple process of linear calculation for both the assessment and reference systems.
