Study On China's Regional Competitiveness Of Wood-based Panel Industry

Since reform and opening, China's economy maintained steady and rapid growth, the domestic real estate, construction and decoration, furniture industry, all expanding market capacity; rapid increase in volume of international trade, forestry industry rapidly join into the international market too. In this context, China's wood-based panel industry is also experiencing rapid development, has become the world's wood-based panels production, consumption superpower. However, there are also more prominent problem:serious regional imbalance; irrational allocation of resources, failed to achieve the optimal region combination; many provinces lack of funds, technology, industrial transfer channels; excessive dependence on international trade and so on. These problems have largely affected the sustainable development of wood-based panel industry.According to Industrial Economic theory and regional economic theory, under the guidance of based on Porter "Diamond Model" analytical framework, this study built the regional competitiveness index system of China wood-based panel industry, and took the principal component analysis method, analyzed the level of competitiveness of regional wood-based panel industry. In addition, the study gave some related measures to guide China's plywood industry development on a certain reference.The results show that the regional competitiveness of wood-based panel industry vary greatly, with some of the causes of convergence, it should be from two aspects of China's overall development and regional promotion of plywood industry development policy. The performance of wood-based panel industry competitiveness into four levels:Guangdong, Jiangsu, Fujian and other provinces as the 6 most competitive region, Shandong, Hebei, Heilongjiang,9 provinces to more competitive regions, Sichuan, Henan,10 provinces as Hubei and other less competitive areas, Shanxi, Xinjiang, Ningxia and other provinces for the Competitiveness of 6 weakest area. Regional competitiveness of wood-based panels industry, including the five main factors:the level of economic and social development, financial and technical level, the forest volume and functions, the degree of market openness, the level of industrial clustering.Promote the development of wood-based panel industry, should proceed the macro and regional level policies: the macro should be an overall plan, from the standard setting, industrial transfer, promoting the development of industry as a whole; the regional level should be adapted to local conditions:by industrial upgrading, investment holding, technology transfer, market and other methods, so that the most developed regions do to maintain the edge, leading the development of the industry; by absorbing industrial transfer, building infrastructure, nurturing forest resources and other means to guide the weak regional wood-based panel industry; through the development of new materials, innovative techniques, etc., so that play the weakest provinces a breakthrough based on the ecological functions of forest.
