Combined with the evolution of industrial structure, the plan of structure adjustment and the measures to the different industries have been put forward. According to agricultural location theory and recycling economy theory, the rule of spatial distribution of urban agricultural in Changzhou has been concluded and some detailed plans have been also given based on environmental protection. Meanwhile some projects and techniques have been raised to reduce the pollution, and even to improve the environment.
