Analysis of Dynamic Changes of Relative Carrying Capacity of Resources in Jilin Province

Taking research conception and computation method in terms of relative carrying capacity of resources, the relative carrying capacity of land resources, economy resources, and synthetic capacity and their evolutionary course of Jilin province from 1978 to 1998 were studied, the whole country, eastern developed area, and western inland as reference zones. Results shows that, the integrated carrying capacity of Jilin province surpassed the real population from 1978 to 1998, land resource is still the main carrying resource. The real population overloaded the carrying capacity of economy resource of Jilin province, compared with eastern developed zones, which shows that its economy development level still lags behind the eastern China. However, its carrying capacities of land resource and economy resource surpassed real population, compared with the western inland of China. The main obstacle hindering Jilin province's economy development is the irrational configuration of industry structure and employment structure, which leads to long-term low benefit of economy development. Meanwhile, more attention should be paid to the decrease of cultivated land in recent years. It is important to speed up adjustment of structure between the first, the second, and the third industries and inside the industries,and to transfer surplus labors of countryside. It is also imperative to change pattern of economy development, to protect natural resources rationally, to build a saving-resource economy system.
