PROJECT CONTEXT AND DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES A. CONTEXT AT APPRAISAL Context 1. Food Safety has economic and political consequences for the People’s Republic of China (PRC). This project was initiated at a time when the Chinese economy was changing rapidly from a centrally planned to a market economy, and was becoming more integrated into the global economy with a rapid increase in exports of Chinese food products. To adapt to this new environment, food producers and the government were required to move beyond the old system of detailed production norms and heavy administrative control to a more market oriented approach. Food safety and quality were of major concern in China at that time as illustrated by the widely-publicized European Union import prohibition of Chinese honey and aquaculture products containing prohibited antibiotics and the adulteration of milk products with melamine. For the agribusiness sector, this meant more self-regulation and the use of certification systems, adoption of new technologies

  • Historical Arable Land Change in an Eco-Fragile Area: a Case Study in Zhenlai County, Northeastern China
    sustainability Article Historical Arable Land Change in an Eco-Fragile Area: A Case Study in Zhenlai County, Northeastern China Yuanyuan Yang 1,2,* and Shuwen Zhang 3 1 Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China 2 Faculty of Geographical Science, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, China 3 Northeast Institute of Geography and Agroecology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Changchun 130102, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 21 August 2018; Accepted: 26 October 2018; Published: 30 October 2018 Abstract: Long-term land changes are cumulatively a major driver of global environmental change. Historical land-cover/use change is important for assessing present landscape conditions and researching ecological environment issues, especially in eco-fragile areas. Arable land is one of the land types influenced by human agricultural activity, reflecting human effects on land-use and land-cover change. This paper selected Zhenlai County, which is part of the farming–pastoral zone of northern China, as the research region. As agricultural land transformation goes with the establishment of settlements, in this research, the historical progress of land transformation in agricultural areas was analyzed from the perspective of settlement evolution, and the historical reconstruction of arable land was established using settlement as the proxy between their inner relationships, which could be reflected by the farming radius. The results show the following. (1) There was little land transformation from nonagricultural areas into agricultural areas until the Qing government lifted the ban on cultivation and mass migration accelerated the process, which was most significant during 1907–1912; (2) The overall trend of land transformation in this region is from northeast to southwest; (3) Taking the topographic maps as references, the spatial distribution of the reconstructed arable land accounts for 47.79% of the maps.

  • Evaluating Poverty Alleviation by Relocation Under the Link Policy: a Case Study from Tongyu County, Jilin Province, China
    Article Evaluating Poverty Alleviation by Relocation under the Link Policy: A Case Study from Tongyu County, Jilin Province, China Cunming Zou, Jianzhi Liu, Bencheng Liu, Xuhan Zheng and Yangang Fang * School of Geographical Sciences of Northeast Normal University, Changchun 130024, China; [email protected] (C.Z.); [email protected] (J.L.); [email protected] (B.L.); [email protected] (X.Z.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-431-85099550 Received: 7 September 2019; Accepted: 10 September 2019; Published: 16 September 2019 Abstract: Land, nature, and the social environment in contiguous poor regions are harsh and difficult to change. The poor adaptive capacities of the socio-ecological systems of these regions are the main causes of deep, persistent poverty. In February 2016, the Chinese government issued a policy proposing to promote poverty alleviation by relocation (PAR) by means of the “Linking increases in urban construction land with decreases in rural construction land” policy (or simply, the “Link Policy” or LP), which intends to realize the sustainable social and economic development of local villages. Since then, many pilot projects have been carried out across the country based on local resources, environment, and economic development; however, few related studies on these cases have been conducted. After a review of poverty alleviation policies, this paper first introduces the unsustainable conditions of poor rural areas and the implications and advantages of PAR under the Link Policy; we then analyzed the complete PAR process, including formulation, implementation, and completion, by taking Tongyu County in Jilin Province as an example. The study found that the “whole village relocation” model practiced in Tongyu County was relatively successful in terms of improving the living environment, income, and public services of local villagers.

Since its inception, the VFP has demonstrated that sharing thoughts and ideas through face-to-face contacts and dialogue works as a catalyst for enhancing mutual understanding among scholars and professionals with diverse background. By successfully implementing the VFP for the past 7 years, KIEP has been motivated to assume the role as a hub for international economic research in the region. As a host of the program, KIEP has many mandates. One of those tasks is to let more people know what has been accomplished through the program and how valuable it is.

Academic Editor: Miklas Scholz Received: 29 June 2015 / Accepted: 24 July 2015 / Published: 30 July 2015 Abstract: This paper introduces a surrogate model to identify an optimal exploitation scheme, while the western Jilin province was selected as the study area. A numerical simulation model of groundwater flow was established first, and four exploitation wells were set in the Tongyu county and Qian Gorlos county respectively so as to supply water to Daan county. Second, the Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) method was used to collect data in the feasible region for input variables. A surrogate model of the numerical simulation model of groundwater flow was developed using the regression kriging method. An optimization model was established to search an optimal groundwater exploitation scheme using the minimum average drawdown of groundwater table and the minimum cost of groundwater exploitation as multi-objective functions.

Financial projections and analysis have been prepared in accordance with the 2005 edition of the Guidelines for the Financial Governance and Management of Investment Projects Financed by the Asian Development Bank. The Guidelines cover both revenue earning and non revenue earning projects. Project roads include expressways, Class I and Class II roads. All will be built by the Heilongjiang Provincial Communications Department (HPCD). When the project started it was assumed that all project roads would be revenue earning. It was then discovered that national guidance was that Class 2 roads should be toll free. The ADB agreed that the DFR should concentrate on the revenue earning Expressway and Class I roads, 2.
