| Based on the tendency analysis of urbanization level and cultivated land resource change from 1978 to 2011
of Sichuan province, the paper studied the theoretical relationship and quantitative model between urbanization and
cultivated land resource change, and analyzed the coordination. Results showed: accompanied with the rising of
urbanization level in Sichuan province, cultivated land total areas and per person area presented decreasing tendency which
possessed stage characteristics; coordinated development between urbanization and cultivated land resource hardly realized
under the theoretical framework, as cultivated land area would decrease 5.743 units if urbanization level promoted one unit;
coordinated degree between urbanization and cultivated land resource change of Sichuan province showed stage
characteristics which presented state of basically coordinate and coordinate to barely coordinate and incoordinate to
basically coordinate and comparatively coordinate . Based on these, the paper put forward suggestions on the coordinated
development between urbanization and cultivated land resource |
