Evaluation of Comprehensive Agricultural Production Capacity Based on Factor Analysis: A Case Study of Hunan Province
Based on the basic connotation of comprehensive agricultural production capacity, this article establishes the comprehensive agricultural production capacity indicator system on the basis of statistics. This indicator system consists of 5 parts (input scale of factors, output scale of factors, output rate of factors, ability to resist disaster and ensure production, and modern operation level) and 14 specific indicators. Based on factor analysis method, we use this indicator system to conduct systematic empirical analysis of the level of comprehensive agricultural production capacity in 14 cities and prefectures of Hunan Province. The results show that although the overall level of comprehensive agricultural production capacity in Hunan Province tends to grow continuously and steadily, there are significant inter-regional differences in the level of comprehensive agricultural production capacity; in terms of the level of comprehensive agricultural production capacity, there is great room for improvement. Finally the following policy recommendations are put forward: strengthening balanced regional development and improving the overall level of comprehensive agricultural production capacity; strengthening the building of land carrying capacity; strengthening the building of agricultural ecological balance; strengthening the building of the scientific and technological support capacity.
