Abstract

Abstract:

The agricultural heritage systems refer to the traditional agricultural production systems formed and inherited by the labor people in the long-term coordinated development with the environment, which have a long history, abundant biological resources, well-established technical systems, rich local culture and outstanding agricultural landscapes. Zhejiang Province is the first to carry out the conservation of agricultural heritage systems and possesses the largest number of recognized important agricultural heritage systems (IAHS) in China, including Globally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (GIAHS), and China Nationally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems (China-NIAHS). Zhejiang has made remarkable progress in the excavation and conservation of agricultural heritage systems. In order to sum up the experience and find the deficiencies, we comb the conservation and development process of agricultural heritage systems in Zhejiang Province, and analyze the spatial distribution and type distribution of the recognized IAHS and the agricultural heritage systems discovered through general surveys first. Then, based on the understanding and identification of various IAHS conservation practices in Zhejiang Province, four typical models are summarized, namely, government-driven model, multi-linkage model, industry-driven model and enterprise-driven model. Through further investigation, we find that there are still some deficiencies in the resource excavation, brand management, funding security, scientific and technological support, and propaganda for the conservation of agricultural heritage systems in Zhejiang Province. In response to these issues, we propose corresponding countermeasures and suggestions such as carrying out a comprehensive survey of agricultural heritage systems, identifying provincial important agricultural heritage systems, improving the management system, strengthening scientific and technological support and capital investment, strengthening exchanges and propaganda, etc., to provide references for promoting the conversation and development of agricultural heritage systems in Zhejiang Province.

Key words: agricultural heritage systems, protection course, typical model, Zhejiang Province
