Abstract

Against the backdrop of ecological civilization construction, forestry ecological security and forestry industry structure evolution have attracted increasing attention from the whole society. Based on the theory of composite system synergy and the DPSIR model, this paper constructs a composite system synergy model for forestry ecological security and forestry industry structure in Guangdong Province. The paper empirically analyzes the orderliness of each system and the synergy of the two systems from 2011 to 2021. The research results show that: (1) The orderliness of forestry ecological security system in Guangdong Province increased from 0.36 in 2011 to 0.514 in 2021, but it fluctuated and declined after 2016. (2) The orderliness of forestry industry structure system increased from 0.436 in 2011 to 0.689 in 2016, but it showed a downward trend after 2017, reaching 0.414 in 2021. (3) The synergy of the two systems presented a fluctuating trend from 2012 to 2021, but overall, the synergy showed a gradual increase, growing from -0.031 in 2013 to 0.068 in 2021. These results indicate the complexity and dynamics between forestry ecological security and forestry industry structure, as well as the overall improvement of their synergy. The study proposes policy implications such as strengthening forestry ecological security protection, optimizing forestry industry structure, enhancing the synergy of the two systems, formulating long-term strategies, and fully considering local characteristics to promote the sustainable development of forestry in Guangdong Province.
