Conceptual Model for the Evaluation and Optimization of Sustainable Land Use

Abstract:

Sustainable land use plays a vital role in the process of regional development. To pursuit the sustainable use of land resources will be the effective approach to address the conflictions among farmland conservation, social development and environment protection. This paper reviewed the relevant research and studies on the field of sustainable land use including its various definitions, the sustainability evaluation and optimization of land resources, got some conclusions about the prospects in the study on sustainable land use and finally addressed the conceptual model for evaluating and optimizing sustainable land use.
