ABSTRACT
This paper studied the impact of new industrial activities on ecological security in agricultural
and animal husbandry interlaced areas, and provided reference for eco-environmental protection and
sustainable development. A pressure-state-response (PSR) assessment model was established in the case
of Yanchi County, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. The comprehensive weights of the indexes were
determined by AHP and entropy weight, and the ecological security status of agricultural and animal
husbandry interlaced areas was evaluated. The results show that the index of pressure system fluctuated
and decreased, and went through the stage from “Safe” to “Unsafe”; The index of the state system
showed a rising trend, from “Extremely unsafe” to “Relatively safe”, which showed the sensitivity
characteristic; The response system index had been increasing year by year, and had stabilized
at a “Safe” level in 2019;The overall ecosystem security index showed a fairly good development trend,
with significant improvement in ecosystem functions in 2019. On the basis of the stable state system,
we should ease the pressure index in the ecological security system of Yanchi County, control the scale
of tourists, reduce the damage of farming and animal husbandry to the cultivated layer, and stabilize
the population.
