Abstract

High-quality development of forestry is an important part of realizing ecological civilization construction and assisting carbon peak carbon neutral, based on the function of the "four reservoirs" to find out the strategic positioning of China's forestry development, reconstruct its value core and benefit orientation, and realize high-quality development, is a major issue of the times that concerns the strategic overall situation. It is of great practical significance to measure and evaluate the efficiency of high-quality development of forestry through the concept of forestry "four reservoirs". Through the data of 27 provinces and cities in China from 2012 to 2020, the study adopts the super-efficient SBM model and the VIKOR model to measure the efficiency of high-quality development of forestry and evaluate its development preference, opportunity cost and benefit ratio, and the conclusions of the study are as follows: (1) There are obvious regional differences in the efficiency of high-quality development of China's forestry in the period of 2012 to 2020, and the overall situation shows that the efficiency of high-quality development in the south is high and the north is low. (1) There are obvious regional differences in China's forestry high-quality development efficiency from 2012 to 2020, and the overall situation is characterized by regional differences of "high in the south and low in the north". The change in the average value of overall efficiency shows a stable wave-like upward trend. (2) From 2012 to 2020, there will be obvious regional differences in China's forestry high-quality development preference, and the overall situation will be characterized by regional differences of "high in the south and low in the north". (3) There is no obvious regional difference in the opportunity cost of high-quality forestry development in China from 2012 to 2020. (4) From 2012 to 2020, the benefit ratio of China's high quality forestry shows that the benefit ratio of the southern forest area is better than that of the other three major forest areas, and the overall difference in the benefit ratio of the other three major forest areas is not significant.
