The current state of the vitivinicultural sector in mainland China

Abstract

China's vineyard surface area accounts for the second place in the world, its grape production the first place, and its wine consumption and imports the fifth place. The vitivinicultural sector is playing an increasingly important role in the world. At the same time, vitivinicultural sector has also played an important role in poverty reduction in rural areas of China.Based on the background of the world vitivinicultural sector, it is of great significance to analyze the characteristics of China's domestic vitivinicultural sector, especially the situation of the primary, secondary and tertiary industries, to help China continue to reduce poverty in the countryside, optimize the industrial structure, and promote the integration of the three industries. At the same time, it also provides a reference for the consumption and trade of grape products between China and the world. This paper collected the authoritative statistical data of vitivinicultural sector in the world and China for the past two decades, including global national data and China’s provincial data, and analyzed the development trend of grape industries in China from the perspectives of vineyard surface area, grape production, grape use, wine production, consumption and trade in an international context. For the first time, China’s POI information of grape-related enterprises in Baidu online map was retrieved, and the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of domestic grape industries were analyzed by using ArcGIS software. It includes the comparative analysis of grape surface area and production in different provinces, the development analysis of grape-related primary, secondary and tertiary industries, the trend analysis of grape cultivation in different provinces, and the shift analysis of industrial spatial gravity center. The result not only shows the changes of grape producing areas in China, but also tries to explore the distribution and integration of the three industries at the provincial scale in different parts of China. The future development of grape industry in 31 provinces in mainland China was predicted.
