Description
Summary:Abstract As a key project of deepening rural reform, agricultural transformation and upgrading and beautiful rural construction, leisure agriculture plays an important role in promoting the coordinated development of urban and rural areas, rural revitalization and all-round well-off society. In this study, 386 leisure agriculture demonstration sites in Guangdong Province were selected as samples, and the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of leisure agriculture demonstration sites were deeply analyzed with the help of GIS technology. At the same time, through the accessibility calculation formula, OLS linear regression and GWR model, the accessibility, influencing factors and spatial alienation effect of leisure agriculture demonstration sites are systematically explored. The research draws the following core conclusions: (1) The average spatial accessibility of leisure agriculture demonstration sites in Guangdong Province is 240.01 min, which is relatively low and has significant differences among cities; (2) Elevation, slope, river and road network density are identified as the main factors affecting spatial accessibility; (3)GWR model analysis shows that the regression coefficients of road network density, river density and elevation are high and fluctuate significantly, indicating that these three factors have a significant impact on the spatial distribution of leisure agriculture demonstration sites. Under the guidance of the rural revitalization strategy, through the in-depth analysis of the spatial distribution characteristics of leisure agriculture demonstration sites in Guangdong Province, specific countermeasures and suggestions were put forward to promote the further improvement and development of regional leisure agriculture.
