Spatial and Temporal Evolution of Dairy Farming Coordination between Economy and Ecology in China

This paper focuses on the theme of the sustainable dairy industry and explores the coordination between the economy and ecology in dairy farming. Specifically, we constructed a composite dairy economy and ecology (DEE) system to evaluate the status of dairy farming. Based on the panel data of the ni...

Based on the panel data of the nine primary milk producing provinces in China from 2003 to 2018, we estimated DEE changes with the coupling coordination degree model from perception of time.

Our findings provide relevant evidence for improving the relationship between the economy and ecology for the sustainability of the dairy industry.
