Abstract:

Mountains are usually ecologically fragile area, but play a very important role in ecological construction. In recent years, the contradiction between economic development and the ecological environment is increasingly prominent. Mountains serve as an important ecological barrier, and therefore, their ecological and economic coordination development problem has been widely concerned. In this study, Xiangxi autonomous prefecture of Hunan province was targeted, and the restriction and interaction of the forestry construction and economic development in the ecologically-vulnerable areas were investigated. The result showed that the contradiction between social and economic development and ecological environmental damage still existed in Xiangxi autonomous prefecture, which brought a certain pressure to the forestry construction. Meanwhile, the limitations of resources use in process of the forestry construction also formed the constraints and obstacles to farmer's livelihoods and forestry industry development.

Key words: ecologically-vulnerable areas, forestry ecological construction, economic development, interaction relationship
