Abstract:

The integration of agriculture and tourism can effectively promote rural revitalization, better solve the problems of agriculture, rural areas, and farmers, and has practical significance for regional economic and income growth, as well as ecological construction. This paper is based on relevant literature and theory, and uses a coupling coordination degree model to calculate the coupling coordination of agriculture and tourism in 132 counties in Zhejiang Province, Anhui Province, and Chongqing City from 2012 to 2020. The results show that the coupling degree of most counties is in the stage of high-quality coordination, indicating a high degree of closeness between the agricultural and tourism industries; Most counties have changed from transitional coordination zone to moderate coordination zone, indicating that although agriculture and tourism are closely related and developing well, the integration level is still at a low level. The integrated development of agriculture and tourism has not been put forward for a long time, and the road of integrated development of various regions still needs to be explored in practice.

Key words: integration of agriculture and tourism, coupling coordination degree, industrial development
