Abstract

The economic and social orientation of cultivated land in underdeveloped mountainous areas is obvious. A study of the spatial agglomeration characteristics of cultivated land quality can provide guidance for regional economic and social development. Taking Pengshui County, Chongqing, China as the study area, the spatial agglomeration characteristics of cultivated land quality indexes at county, township and village levels were analyzed by using the auto-correlation analysis method. The results showed that: (1) At different spatial scales, the cultivated land quality index showed spatial agglomeration characteristics. (2) Moran’s I values of the cultivated land quality index at county, township and village level decreased successively, but three indexes still showed significant positive spatial correlation. (3) The spatial scale affects the spatial agglomeration of the cultivated land quality index, and its influence is physical, with a utilization and economic quality grade index from large to small. In underdeveloped mountainous areas, the spatial agglomeration characteristics of township scale and physical quality grade index are the most stable and significant, which can be used as the direct basis for zoning of cultivated land protection and site selection of rural residents’ agglomeration points.
