On Protection And Utilization Of Agricultural Cultural Heritage In Longji Terraced Field

Guangxi Longji terraces are located in the Longji Mountains of Longji Town,Longsheng County,Guilin,GuangxiZhuang Autonomous Region.It is located between 109°32’～100° 14’ and 25°35’～26°17’ 80 km.Known as the dragon ridge,because of its mountains such as the dragon’s back named.Mountains on the left is Sangjiang,the right is the Zhuang and Yao ancestors cut the terraced fields,so named Longji terraced fields.Guangxi Longji terraced farm system is the Longji ancestors to play a smart,the use of natural,transformation of a major creation of nature.Longji terraced farming system has experienced eight hundred years of development,it through the "harmony between man and nature" concept will be magnificent landscape and precious property dedicated to the world.At present,Longji terraced farm system has the following four main features:1,brilliant long history of development.According to experts from the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences,Guangxi Normal University,Nanjing Agricultural University,Guilin University of Technology and other experts,Longji terraced as early as 2,300 years ago began to appear,its large scale,magnificent landscape,is a world-class landscape value Important agricultural cultural heritage.2,rich variety of species resources.LongshengLongji terraced traditional agricultural system in the territory of the highest elevation of 1850 meters,the minimum altitude of 300 meters,the forest coverage rate of 78.1%,is a subtropical evergreen vegetation,trees,shrubs,herbs,ferns,moss more than a thousand kinds of organic combination of plants,Constitute a good forest vegetation,but also to maintain a more complete forestry ecosystem.In addition to a large number of precious tree species such as yew,there are a wealth of wild animals.In the local people under the cultivation of domesticated,Longji terraced areas of unique varieties of high-quality varieties of Longji pepper and LongjiFeng chicken and Longji Cui duck has been identified as "national geographical indication agricultural products."3,pleasant scenery of the ecological landscape.Terraced fields on both sides of the vegetation protection is good,from the rapids of the river valley,to the white clouds around the mountain,from the verdant forest edge to the cliff before the cliff,where the soil,almost all opened up the terraces.Terraced fields such as the chain,such as the dragon,from the foot of the mountain has been coiled to the top of the mountain,such as snails,mountains such as the tower,the lines of flowing water,chic and smooth,magnificent scale magnificent,magnificent,called the world a must.Unique natural ecosystem and climate environment,not only for the Longji terraced irrigation provides a unique condition,but also formed the world’s outstanding ecological landscape.4,unique national culture.More than two thousand years,Longji terraced fields have been integrated into the local residents of life,diet,customs,weddings and funerals,and other aspects,the formation of a unique geographical culture.Here to preserve the rice farming-based rice culture,"white"-based clothing culture,to dry bar-based architectural culture,to stone and stone road-based stone culture,with copper drums and song As the main song and dance culture,to the old system of government-based national autonomy culture and the "Longji four treasures" mainly diet culture,etc.,these are typical representatives of the northern Guangxi multi-ethnic.These local cultural relics together with the terraced terracedterraced terraces constitute a unique and rich human resourcesAlthough the Longji terrace has ecological value,economic value,cultural value and unique value and other values,but with the rapid development of society in recent years,the loss of labor,population aging,land use competition and terraced relatively low income The existence of unfavorable factors makes the traditional culture and biodiversity of the Ridge Terraced fields increasingly confronted with challenges.At the same time,I found in the process of field investigation,the local environmental pollution is still quite serious.For example,domestic sewage discharged into the field,industrial water without treatment into the adjacent water,pesticide abuse and other pollution.If allowed to develop it,then the Longji terraces will face the danger of disappearing.Therefore,how to effectively protect and rational use of Longji terraces is imminent.Local governments and relevant departments have carried out some attempts and exploration,and also made some good experience and results,but there are still many places need to be improved.Protection of Longji terraced fields,not only to protect the ecological environment of the Longji terraces,but also to protect the culture of Longji terraces,cultural space and cultural creativity.Only by protecting and using the terraced agricultural cultural heritage left in these historical areas can it be of great significance to implement the scientific development concept and realize the comprehensive,coordinated and sustainable development of society and economy.
