- (1)
- The overall development of the H–H zone is weak, and the regional economy is relatively small. In this zone, the ecosystem is fragile, and grassland landscape resources are rich. In 2020, the proportion of grassland in Sichuan and Yunnan research units was 68% and 46%, respectively. Economic development lags behind, mainly relying on primary agricultural and livestock products. The population is small, and population loss is relatively serious. The natural landscape of the zone is unique, and tourism resources are highly enriched. The tertiary industry accounted for more than 50% of research units in Sichuan and Yunnan in 2020. However, the tourism industry is still in the initial stage and lacks systematic industrial planning. It has not yet formed a stable and sustainable ability to drive economic growth, and its income cannot be the main support of local economic development. Moreover, the ecosystem vulnerability also prevents the region from developing large-scale resource-based industries to drive economic development [63]. In addition, it also faces the problems of ecological destruction such as overgrazing, deforestation and overmining due to insufficient development power [64].
- (2)
- The L–L zone has entered the middle stage of industrialization. It is mainly concentrated in the mountain areas around the Sichuan Basin and northern Guizhou, with rich forestry resources. In 2020, the forestland of Sichuan and Guizhou research units accounted for 66% and 53%, respectively. The landform in this region is mainly mountainous, the soil layer is barren and the land cultivation condition is poor. The cultivated land in Sichuan and Guizhou only accounted for 19% and 29%, respectively, of the research units in 2020. In the past 20 years, the industrial structure of the zone has gradually realized the transformation from the secondary industry to the tertiary industry, and the economic development has begun to enter the middle stage of industrialization, and the population has also increased [65].
- (3)
- The L–H zone is underdeveloped, and is in the early stage of industrialization. This region is mainly concentrated in southern Sichuan, western Yunnan and southeast Guizhou, which is the key area of ecological barrier construction and biodiversity conservation. It has prominent advantages in ecological, biological and tourism resources and occupies an extremely important ecological location. The forestland in Yunnan, Sichuan and Guizhou research units all accounted for more than 65% in 2020. However, at the same time, it also faces the challenges of weak industrial foundation, low industrial level and insufficient resource transformation. Moreover, complex terrain conditions and a fragile ecosystem limit the development of the region to some extent [66].
- (4)
- The H–L zone has a higher level of urbanization, and is in the middle and late stages of industrialization. The region is mainly concentrated in the Sichuan Basin and the central Yunnan urban agglomeration, and the urbanization level is much higher than other regions. The artificial surface in Sichuan, Chongqing and Yunnan research units all accounted for more than 3% in 2020. In most units of the zone, resource-intensive industries, such as metallurgy, mining and electricity, and chemical industry, are the main driving force for economic growth. Regional development faces many obstacles, such as high dependence on resources, low-end industrial chain, high population density, and high land use intensity [67].
5.3. Differentiated Development Strategy in Southwest China
- (1)
- The H–H zone should adhere to the ecological orientation and promote the integrated development of multiple industries by relying on tourism and ecological resources. In the future, the project of returning grazing land to grassland should be actively carried out, the appropriate management plan of rotational grazing should be formulated, and the system of rotational grazing, rest grazing and prohibition of grazing should be strictly implemented to improve the sustainability of grassland ecosystems [68]. Relying on excellent ecological environment and ethnic cultural background, efforts should be made to build a new system of rural eco-tourism, develop participatory eco-tourism products and promote the integrated development of multiple industries. While developing tourism resources, the government should pay attention to scientific evaluation and strengthen protection of biological and ecological resources, so as to avoid increasing ecological risk due to excessive development and disorderly competition of rural tourism. In addition, local fiscal revenue in the zone is weak. It is necessary to make rational use of the central assistance funds and actively introduce talents and technology, so as to better alleviate the contradiction between ecological protection and economic development.
- (2)
- The L–L zone should actively explore the feasible path to transform ecological resources into ecological economy. It is suggested that while strengthening the protection of natural forests and ecological red lines, the government should formulate appropriate subsidy policies to compensate for the development opportunities and ecological construction costs abandoned due to the construction of ecological barriers. Forestry departments and local governments should strengthen support for forest products, such as medicinal plants and precious trees; actively develop relevant forest products; drive the development of processing, storage and transportation and other related industries; and promote the transformation of regional ecological advantages to industrial advantages. At the same time, the region should accelerate the development of environmentally friendly and resource-saving emerging industries. Combined with its own rich resources such as hydropower, oil and gas, and mineral resources, the development of clean energy industry should be promoted orderly, gradually forming an industrial cluster dominated by clean energy and promoting the regional development of new industrialization [69].
- (3)
- The key task of the L–H zone is to develop the economy stably on the premise of continuously improving ecological function. In the future, local governments should continue to implement projects such as natural forests protection and returning farmland to forests and grasslands, strengthen forest resources management and conservation, improve biodiversity monitoring systems and build ecological corridors to further promote biodiversity conservation [70]. It is suggested to cultivate and consolidate ecotourism, e-commerce, health preservation and other service industries with its own characteristic resources. Make full use of the geography, climate and biological resources; focus on the development of tea, tobacco, fruit, coffee, flowers and other characteristics of agricultural products; and gradually promote the development of agricultural and sideline products processing and other characteristic processing industries. Focus on cultivating emerging industries such as bio-medical and green energy to undertake tertiary industry and promote the further extension of regional tourism industry chain. By promoting the coordinated development of the primary, secondary and tertiary industries, people’s dual needs for a good environment and economic growth can be sustainably met.
- (4)
- The H–L zone needs to strengthen the management and control of resource-based industries and implement sustainable industrial development policies. In order to alleviate the pressure on the ecological environment, it is necessary to speed up the upgrading of treatment processes, clean technology and equipment, improve energy efficiency and reduce resource consumption and industrial pollution. The development of innovative industrial clusters, such as high-end manufacturing, advanced material and communications, should focus on the transition from resource-based industries to emerging industries. Moreover, efforts should be made to promote land consolidation, improve the level of land conservation and intensification, optimize the structure of urban and rural construction land, reasonably arrange urban industrial and mining land and transportation land, and alleviate the contradiction between production, life and ecological space [46]. Waste treatment and ecological protection and restoration projects should be actively carried out. In addition to increasing investment in environmental protection in the treatment of urban waste gas, wastewater and solid waste, ecological projects should be positively carried out to protect natural forests, return farmland to forest and grassland, restore abandoned mines and control soil pollution, so as to ease the pressure on the ecological environment caused by dense population and excessive concentration of resources [71].
