Abstract:
Constructing a spatial zoning system for rural revitalization at county level with appropriate space control measures is an effective way to modernize the spatial governance system, to promote urban-rural integration, and to realize rural revitalization. Considering the contradictions among rural governance ability, rural development, and farmer's needs under the background of county rural revitalization, this study constructed a spatial zoning system for rural revitalization with multi-levels, multi-perspectives, and multi-types by the normative analysis and case analysis methods. Results showed that the county spatial zoning system can be constructed from three levels, including county function zoning, rural revitalization classification, and rural development type. According to the differences in county functions, county areas are divided into the traction zone, the main body zone, the guaranteed zone, and the coordination zone. Based on resource endowment, social economy, and geographic conditions, the main body zone of the county is classified to industrial, planting and breeding, tourism, forestry, fishery, and other rural development types. Meanwhile, based on rural natural condition, social economy, production and living status, and landscape characteristics, the types of rural development are divided into polar nuclear development type, rural-urban transformation type, characteristic development type, and transfer development type. Ultimately, combined with the county's zoning, classification, and categorized models, this paper provides the following control measures and development paths: industry driven, ecological protection, regional coordination, diversified development, and classification optimization. In summary, this research applied the zoning system to Yilan County, which better reflects the spatial patterns of rural development for the whole county, to help standardize the order of county spatial development and promote the implementation of rural revitalization strategy.
