Abstract:Based on a comprehensive analysis of the spatial distribution characteristics and matching patterns of agricultural water and soil resources in Hubei Province, the DPSIR conceptual model was used to establish an evaluation index system for agricultural water and soil resources carrying capacity, then entropy-weight TOPSIS was constructed to evaluate the carrying capacity of agricultural water and soil resources (CCAWSR)in Hubei Province. The results showed that there is a great difference in CCAWSR in different regions. CCAWSRs of Shennongjia and Enshi are surplus. CCAWSRs of Jingmen, Xiantao, Qianjiang, Tianmen, Wuhan and Jingzhou are safe. CCAWSRs of Suizhou, Xiangyang, Xiaogan, Yichang and Huanggang are nearly overloaded. CCAWSRs of Shiyan, Ezhou, Xianning and Huangshi have been overloaded. Only CCAWSR of Jingzhou has improved significantly from 2000 to 2015. Finally, some solutions were put forward according to the status of CCAWSR in different areas. The results can provide a reference for rational allocation of agricultural water and soil resources and promote sustainable use of resources and sustainable socio-economic development.
