Co-evolution Of The Analysis In The Agricultural Industry Cluster

From the angle of evolutionary economic geography perspective, this paper investigates the caseof landscaped industrial clusters in Yanling County, Henan Province. It thoroughly examsthe entire development of industrial clusters, the cluster network, the evolution of the enterprise innovationwithin the cluster, the operation of the farmers in the cluster, the form of business organization, and finallythe production networks and the regional space. Data was collected from three sources: in personinterviews, field survey and online information research. This paper adopts several research methodsincluding literature review, field survey, descriptive statistical analysis, social network method andinduction to explore what happened during the process of the growth of the agriculture cluster from theevolution background of the cluster at all stages, household enterprise, corporate networks and the regionalspatial evolution, the system of external environment, the impact of the support system for the core system,as well as among collaborative, and ultimately reach a new equilibrium point, and work together topromote the healthy growth of clusters. This paper also discusses the role of innovative activities for clustergrowth. The main conclusions are as follows:At the embryonic stage, farmers with entrepreneurial qualities first utilize factors such as thetraditional Chinese culture, commercial atmosphere to gain opportunities transforming themselves toentrepreneurs in the development of certain industries. They build their enterprise networks from the corestarting from their personal social networks. In this process, with the aid of the superior technicalenvironment, strong business and cultural atmosphere, some farmers quickly improve their own productioncapacity, and gradually accumulate some financial capital, which generates a powerful demonstrableeffect to surrounding farmers. More and more farmers transform from the courtyard-show style business tobusiness operations or joint ventures, and their operating methods turns out to be the enterprise style.Because of obvious clusters advantages, farmers or enterprises that engage in flower production all gainprofits to some degree. Imitation becomes prevalent, and flower production soon develops to an industry,generating great adhesive power. With more associated enterprises and relevant institutions gathered, theregion of flower production further expands.The stages of growth, with corporate snowball accumulation of capital and enterprise capabilitiesto enhance some pioneers give priority to the focus of business owners in the development of the agricultural region. Traditional technologies cannot meet the needs of modern business growth. Theabsorption of overseas experience and cooperation with research institutions to further guide thedevelopment of local industry innovation and the surrounding farmers have an impact. The cluster of"learning by doing" and "specialization" improves the complementary capabilities of the enterprise, and avariety of network formation in the cluster continues to accumulate common knowledge to bridge theknowledge gap between enterprises and farmers. Farmers, driven by desire for economic benefit, imitatethe pioneers in their growth path and improve their own ability, they also take part in the industry after thegradual accumulation of financial capital, and improve their general skills, making farmers and businessescontinue imitating the growth path with the focus on enterprise and becoming pioneers which complementtheir core competencies.Stage of rapid development; system innovation activity from university research institutions,industry associations, flowers, government, enterprises to participate in the cooperation, network links ofcooperation between organizations and institutions constitute the starting point of the network. The corepurpose of the network organization is actively guiding the knowledge in the core group of shared activities,carried out by the knowledge management activities throughout the operation of the overall organization ofthe knowledge network. At this point, the cluster has a strong knowledge base, a strong knowledge ofinteraction between the participants of the cluster innovation, knowledge elements can flow more smoothlywithin the system; within the system there is a collaborative creative culture, this system structure is moreperfect and more mature. Higher innovation; government highlighted the role of the Government’s principalbroker policy, demand policies, training, and other agencies to coordinate many different knowledgeinteractive activities, enterprises with the help of this association pouring from suppliers, customers andcolleges and universities to draw from the knowledge of the cost, market and technology innovation, andcreating more interaction in the process.In the development process throughout clusters, innovation drives the clusters to grow. With thegrowth of enterprises in different stages, the formation of creative evolution, enterprise networkconstruction strategy has also undergone a corresponding change. Companies make use of marketopportunities and build the interpersonal network of entrepreneurial resources, along with numerousenterprise cluster, enterprise imitate each other, to seek development. Enterprises can only rely on innovation to change the status quo, in the process of institutional and technological innovations,companies rely on external forces, resulting from interpersonal networks, production networks to clusternetwork system of R&D network evolution. Cooperative relations between the cluster environment, thecluster space supports agencies. Thus, innovation has the effective dissemination and diffusion through thenetwork in this process, the corresponding evolution adapts to the evolution of the core system, andultimately enables them to work together to develop, and promote cluster continuous development.
