Urbanization And Spatial Organization Of State Farms In Sanjiang Plain

Towns in state farms were formed under special historical background in China. It is a specialurban settlement pattern where people are engaged in specialized agricultural production. With thedevelopment of economy and society, industrialization and urbanization are the inevitable trendsand urgent requirements in the state farms. Focus on this practical requirements, this paperselected Baoquanling, Hongxinglong, Jiansanjiang and Mudanjiang as the study objects, analyzedthe formation and evolution of the towns in state farms, identified the key elements of change ofindustrial structure, development of industry and service industry and population aggregation andemployment structure. The paper selected Fujin, Mishan, Luobei and Jixian which were near thetowns in state farms and the larger agriculture county of Jiashan located in eastern coast as thecompared cases, the evaluation index system based on the economic development, industrialstructure, standard of living, social development, infrastructure and environment had beenestablished to measure and compare the urbanization quality between state farms and others by theCombination Weights method. Based on analyzing central function intensity of state farms towns,the economical relation intensity with the towns around state farms and the radiation ranges of themajor towns, this paper discussed the spatial organization type of Point Axle from the aspect ofstrengthening central towns, multi-polarization of scale grade and diversification of axialdevelopment. Modulating countermeasures from economic transformation and industry upgrade,the open and cooperation of regional economic and innovation of urbanization system had beenproposed in order to promote the urbanization process in state farms. Five parts of contents wereincluded as follows:Firstly, based on the understanding of related concepts, the thesis analyzed the connotation ofurbanization in state farms, urbanization quality and the spatial organization of urbanization,summarized the theories and methods of urbanization process and spatial organization in statefarms, which could provide guides for the analysis and assessment of urbanization and spatialorganization in state farms.Secondly, the thesis elaborated the formation and evolution phrase of the state farms towns inSanjiang plain, analyzed the evolution and mechanisms of key elements such as the change of three-industrial structure, development of industry and service industry and populationaggregation and employment structure from1989to2010and qualitatively analyzed the currentcharacteristics of urbanization in state farms, which could provide basis for establishing theurbanization quality evaluation system and spatial organization of urbanization in state farms.Thirdly, The paper selected Fujin, Mishan, Luobei and Jixian which were near the towns instate farms and the larger agriculture county of Jiashan located in eastern coast as the comparedcases, the evaluation index system based on the economic development, industrial structure,standard of living, social development, infrastructure and environment had been established tomeasure and compare the urbanization quality between state farms and others by the CombinationWeights method.Fourthly, towns in Sanjiang plain had been divided into three grades according to the centralfunction intensity. The paper analyzed the spatial distribution of the economical relation intensitybetween state farms towns and around them based on the improved Economic Relation Intensitymodel. The radiation ranges of the three grades towns had been mapped by Voronoi model. Andthen this paper discussed the spatial organization type of Point Axle from the aspect ofstrengthening central towns, multi-polarization of scale grades and diversification of axialdevelopment in state farms.Finally, considering the economic particularity of state farms, modulating countermeasuresfrom economic transformation and industry upgrade, the open and cooperation of regionaleconomic and innovation of urbanization system had been proposed in order to promote theurbanization process in state farms mainly for the agricultural resources development.
