Planning principles of Leisure Agriculture

Abstract: leisure agriculture began in the 1930s, due to the accelerated process of urbanization and the rapid increase in population, in order to alleviate the pressure of urban life, people are eager to enjoy temporary leisure and serenity in rural areas and experience rural life. Therefore, ecological leisure agriculture gradually sprang up in Italy and other places, and then developed rapidly in Europe and the United States. Now let's take a look at the planning principles of leisure agriculture.

Leisure agriculture began in the 1930s, due to the accelerated process of urbanization and the rapid increase in population, in order to alleviate the pressure of urban life, people are eager to enjoy temporary leisure and serenity in rural areas and experience rural life. So ecological leisure agriculture gradually sprang up in Italy and other places, and then developed rapidly in Europe and the United States. Let's take a look at the planning principles of leisure agriculture.

Principle of scientific location

The location of leisure farm should be close to the city, famous scenic spots and convenient road transportation (the best place within 5 kilometers from the city). In order to make full use of the natural environmental conditions, leisure farms should build sites in places with the following five conditions: first, places with more hills and less flat land. In the place with more hills and less flat land, it is conducive to ingenious landscape combination and spatial layout, which can occupy less fertile land, do not conflict with the relevant national land policies, and save the cost of land expropriation. Second, there is no industrial pollution. Third, where the water source is better. Building leisure farms in places with better water sources can not only solve the water problem of leisure farms, but also make leisure farms have a better ecological environment because of natural water sources, and make leisure farms full of aura. Fourth, places with few or no residents. Fifth, the soil conditions are better.

Principle of adapting measures to local conditions

The planning of leisure agriculture should take appropriate measures according to the specific local conditions. The plot itself and its surrounding topography, soil properties, climatic conditions, water source conditions, agricultural farming system and vegetation, traffic conditions, energy supply conditions, etc., some are easy to change, some are difficult to change or even unchangeable, no matter whether it is difficult or easy, it is necessary to spend construction costs and increase construction investment. The plan formulated by the planning law in accordance with local conditions is a scheme with low construction cost and strong maneuverability.

Highlight the principle of characteristics

Highlight the characteristics of farming culture. The connotation of farming culture is broad, such as farming forms, traditional agricultural utensils, rural life customs, agricultural labor, agricultural festivals, agricultural technology and so on. Thus it can be seen that the use of farming culture can develop many tourism products with local and national characteristics. Highlighting farming culture is the premise of developing leisure agriculture, but for each leisure farm adjacent to each other, it is not enough to highlight farming culture, but also to fully highlight their own characteristics. You can also highlight features from subtle points, such as planting some melons and vegetables in some open spaces to cover the soil, build some tall melon sheds, grape sheds for tourists to rest or enjoy tea, and plant some fruit trees to beautify the environment. There is no need to build flower beds, rockery and other laborious and costly landscapes that are not popular with urban leisure people.

Principle of comparison of advantages and disadvantages

"comparison and demonstration, preferential layout" has become one of the most important decision-making means for the planning and layout of leisure agriculture. The advantages of leisure agriculture can be compared from the aspects of location conditions, traffic conditions, social and economic background, endowment of resources and so on. Generally speaking, tourism and leisure agricultural tourism destinations or projects close to large and medium-sized cities, especially metropolises, with convenient transportation, good regional socio-economic background, rich resources and characteristics, should give priority to development and focus on development. However, the advantages are hierarchical, only the local advantages are compared in this region, and the national advantages are compared in the whole country.

Scientific principle

China is a large traditional agricultural country with a long agricultural history and civilization. It has gone through three stages of development: primitive agriculture, traditional agriculture and modern agriculture. The traditional agricultural landscape is in sharp contrast to modern high-tech, such as water lifting by keel water truck, water absorption by windmill, stone grinding noodles, cattle ploughing, application of soil and miscellaneous fertilizers, manual picking of agricultural products, traditional spinning wheels and looms, etc. Because they vividly reflect the track of the development of agricultural science and technology, they are also favored by modern tourists. Therefore, the scientific characteristics of the contents displayed in leisure agriculture determine that the planning and design work must enable leisure people to receive agricultural science and technology education and spread agricultural scientific knowledge consciously while entertaining and leisure at the same time. in order to enhance the educational function of leisure agriculture and the demonstration function of high-tech agriculture. Abstract: leisure agriculture began in the 1930s, due to the accelerated process of urbanization and the rapid increase in population, in order to alleviate the pressure of urban life, people are eager to enjoy temporary leisure and serenity in rural areas and experience rural life. Therefore, ecological leisure agriculture gradually sprang up in Italy and other places, and then developed rapidly in Europe and the United States. Now let's take a look at the planning principles of leisure agriculture.

Market-oriented principle

To accurately grasp the changes of market demand, plan and develop marketable products, and effectively occupy and expand their own market areas is one of the key issues for the success or failure of leisure agriculture planning and layout. At present, the development of leisure products of leisure farms in most areas is single, which will inevitably lead to a single consumption of leisure people in the farm, so that leisure people have no place to spend money in the farm, and ultimately lead to a substantial increase in leisure income of leisure farms. Therefore, leisure farms should strive to take into account the development of housing, food, tourism, shopping and recreational products. Moreover, tourism and leisure agriculture is derived from the geographical environment differences between urban and rural areas, and guide urban residents to the rural areas for tourism consumption of a new industry, there is no doubt that the surrounding urban residents are its main potential tourist market. For this reason, it is necessary to find out the source of tourists, the type of tourist source, the market scale, the law of passenger flow and the consumption capacity of tourists through market research. and whether there is competition in the same type of sightseeing, leisure and agricultural tourism scenic spots, scenic spots or projects within a certain distance around the planning and layout.

Principle of comprehensive benefit

The essence of leisure agriculture is a kind of efficient market agriculture with the combination of agriculture and tourism and the extension of the first production to the three industries. First of all, we must follow the principle of economic benefits, through the analysis of investment income, priority should be given to the planning and development of leisure agricultural projects with large scale of resources, high tourism value, good original foundation, convenient transportation, desirable investment, short construction cycle and quick recovery of investment. Secondly, we should pay attention to social benefits, that is, to provide the vast number of urban residents with places and opportunities to get in touch with nature, experience agriculture, sightseeing, leisure and vacation to the maximum extent, so as to improve their cultural connotation and educational function, and to absorb the participation of the broad masses of farmers as far as possible, so as to improve the quality and employment opportunities of farmers. Thirdly, special attention should be paid to ecological benefits, that is, through the development of tourism and leisure agriculture, we should create a beautiful and pleasant green landscape in the suburbs, improve the natural environment, maintain ecological balance, build barriers of urban green belts, and prevent the spread of urban pollution. in order to maintain a fresh and quiet ecological environment in the suburbs.

Principle of participation

In order to maximize the entertainment and participation needs of tourists and cater to the fashion of participation, special attention should be paid to its participation in leisure agriculture project planning, according to market demand and combined with the characteristics of its own resources, creative planning, design and layout of fashionable multi-level series of leisure agricultural products. It is worth noting that participation should also include the participation of local farmers in leisure agriculture. Because farmers are the masters of rural areas and the main body of agricultural production activities, they themselves are the most basic and active tourism resources. Only by absorbing them into this tourism activity to participate in the operation of tourism activities and participate in tourism reception services, can urban tourists enjoy the original cultural atmosphere of rural areas, agriculture and farmers. Therefore, attention must be paid to the participation of local farmers in the planning, design and layout of leisure agriculture.

Principle of overall development

1. Externally, if it is to be incorporated into the system engineering of the development layout of regional leisure agriculture, it must obey the regional high-level or main system development strategy and highlight its own characteristics among regions, that is, in accordance with the principles of "no one has anything", "people have their own advantages" and "people have their own advantages", and based on the advantages of their own resources and product characteristics under the premise of market orientation. Develop the leisure agricultural park and its sightseeing, leisure and vacation products which are obviously different from the surrounding areas and have absolute competitive advantage.

2. Internally, it should take into account not only the overall coordination of the major functional areas, but also the coordination of the whole process of product marketing. at the same time, the leisure agricultural park is based on agricultural sightseeing and agricultural leisure functions. a comprehensive leisure area with multiple functions such as education, vacation entertainment and recreational activities, and its functional area generally includes viewing area, demonstration area, leisure experience area and product area, and its planning and layout is coordinated and developed as a whole.

3. The leisure agricultural park is mostly surrounded by rural areas, and the park and rural areas are an inseparable whole, and the planning and layout of the park should also be combined with rural construction planning. Only the tourism and leisure agricultural park planning based on rural residential and road planning, overall land development planning and ecological environment construction planning can achieve the effect of harmony and vitality.

In addition, the principles of diversity, ecology, humanism, sustainability, the combination of development and protection, and innovation should also be important principles in the planning and layout of leisure agriculture. Leisure agriculture has been fully popularized in our country. In the planning and layout, on the one hand, we should follow these norms and norms that have been accumulated in practice and have risen to the theoretical level. On the other hand, we should be good at pioneering and innovating, constantly summing up and improving, so as to promote China's leisure agriculture to advance along a healthy, orderly and steady pace.
