Research on the Input-Output Model of the Rural Agricultural Eco-Economic System Based on Emergy Theory

Based on the Wassily W. Leontief input-output model, this paper constructs an emergy input-output model of an agricultural eco-economic system based on emergy theory. This model overcomes three limitations of the traditional input-output model. First, the conversion rate of ecological energy is used to solve the problem posed by the fact that the material input-output table cannot be directly combined due to the different measurement units of different substances. Second, it transforms the research object from a pure economic system to an eco-economic system by adding resources and environmental factors. Third, this paper solves the problem posed by the fact that the value input-output model is greatly affected by inflation, and uses the model to analyze the input-output of Zoumajie town in Shuangfeng City, Hunan Province, China, by unifying dimension (solar energy value).

Automated summary

This paper constructs an emergy input-output model based on emergy theory, overcoming three limitations of the traditional model. It solves the problem of combining different substances with different measurement units, transforms the research object into an eco-economic system, and addresses the issue of inflation's impact on the value input-output model.
