The Driver-Pressure-State-Impact-Response （DPSIR） model is applied to identify and describe processes and interactions in human-environmental systems. An example application from a research project dealing with the development of sustainable management strategies for the agriculture in Jiangsu, China, illustrates the potentials and limitations of its sustainable development. The concept and indicators of ecological integrity are used to assess the indicators in the dimensions of DPSIR between 2003 and 2006. The main drivers included population growth which caused increasing demand for food, growing environmental demands, and rapidly decreasing of land and other natural resources. The main environmental problem was water pollution. The results show that in the dimension of driver, total grain output and agricultural land productivity both increased. Labor intensive agriculture has been promoted to increase agricultural land productivity. In the dimension of pressure, on the positive side, infrastructure got greatly improved, the input level such as total power of machinery, and level of fertilizer use increased, and level of pesticides use decreased, but on the negative side, cultivated land per capita and irrigation rate decreased, natural resources keep decreased. Environmental pollution indicators such as industrial wastewater discharge and acid rain rate increased in Jiangsu Province. In the aspect of state, ecosystem state was improved, plant coverage index increased, biological abundance index increased, fertilizer productivity increased, eco-environmental quality index increased, but land degradation index also increased. In the aspect of impact, output level increased, output efficiency enhanced, farmer＇s social economic benefit improved. In the aspect of response, social support was greatly improved, input for environmental governance increased. To assess the effects of environmental governance, Jiangsu government was successful to increase compliance rate of sulfur dioxide emissions, but not so efficient in compliance rate of industrial wastewater discharge.展开更多

It can be used in its fresh form or as a processed product. Bolaxinhongxiu is a mid-maturing variety. Its first flower normally inserts in the 13th section;the plants are about 75 cm tall and 58 cm wide;the fruits are a group of tapering and mostly skinny peppers which colored jade green first and then turn tored-colored when ripe;they are about 28.5 cm long and 1.6 cm wide, often with bright but somewhat rippled skin;each pepper weighs around 28.7 g. Whether eaten raw or processed into chopped peppers or chili sauces, the fruits taste good with a strong pungent flavor. The plant has a vigorous root system and strong resistance to high temperature and drought;it is also highlyresistant to anthracnose, blight, and viral diseases. It is a cultivar with outstanding fruiting-rate and high yields, suitable for cultivation in mountains or the open fields along the Yangtze River Basin in spring and summer.展开更多
