Study On Sustainable Land Use Evaluation And Land Reclamation Planning In Mine-Crop Composite Area

The ideology of sustainable land-use is under the principle of coordinating the developments of human, natural resources, environment and economy, which means the economic increase and social prosperity shouldn't be neglected while highlighting the protection of ecological environment. The protection of environment in developing countries is second to the promotion of social development and economic increase, which coincide with the guideline of sustainable land-use. Coal as an important energy sources is fundamental to industry and economy. However, the exploitation also makes disturbance to the ecology interior and exterior of the coal mine. In our country, many crop areas are near or in coal mines, so using these lands intensively and economically, and performing land consolidation, exploration and reclamation is an effective way to improve the condition in coal mine status quo.This paper selects a crop-mine composite site as research area in Feicheng City, Shandong Province, after making general knowledge of whole area, a evaluating indicator system was built according to the principle of sustainable land-use, which includes five aspects. Then sustainable evaluations of whole crop-mine composite site and the four town inside (Laocheng Town, Wangguadain Town, Hutun Town, Shiheng Town) were carried out, using the 21 meta-indicators in the system. The whole research area shows lower cultivated land area per capita, the sinking of mine site caused dramatic decrease of cultivated land area, and the potentials of recovery varies of each Town.And Hutun Town mine site was selected as a typical case to establish reclamation mode for farmland, in order to increase the area of cultivated land and ponds, which can help alleviate the pressure of lacking of farm land and simplex agricultural structure. At the end of this paper some suggestions and proposals were advanced: (1) using land intensively and economically; (2) promoting the application of land exploration, land consolidation and land reclamation; (3) adjusting the structures of industries and that of agriculture to achieve the multidimensional land-use; (4) some protection provisions should be enlisted in laws and policies related to ensure the right of the owner of farmland; (5) inducements and propaganda should be done to rouse the ideas of farmer and masses to protect land, especially farm land; (6) some evaluations about impact of land-use should be carried out beforehand to reduce the potential hazard to achieve the harmony between human and environment.This paper is an attempt to discuss the proper approach to enhance the protect of sustainable land-use in crop-mine composite sit, which can provide some guidelines and methods for further improvement in similar areas.
