Timely supervision and monitoring of soil salinity are essential to reach the most sustainable improvement goals in arid and semi-arid regions. In the present study, the soil of Aktau region in Xinjiang, China was collected to build a remote sensing based inversion model for identifying soil salinity hazards. Results showed that Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI), and Difference Vegetation Index (DVI) were correlated (P < 0.01) with the model inversion, having correlation coefficients of -0.735, -0.858, and -0.774, respectively. All these were suitable for the construction of the soil salinity inversion model where the optimal parameters of model accuracy were above 85% and prediction results were accurate credible and consistent with the measured data. The NDWI extracted from multispectral images was used as the key parameter of the soil salinity inversion model, which could obtain a better spatial distribution of soil salinity. The remote sensing inversion model of soil salinity provides a theoretical basis for the management of soil salinization and sustainable utilization of agricultural resources in the Aktau region of Xinjiang.

First, based on the panel data from 2006 to 2020 and using the DID model 30 provinces were classified in China. It is found that environmental protection policies have a significant inhibitory effect on the non-point source pollution of the planting industry, and the effect is more obvious over time. From the perspective of heterogeneity analysis, the eastern region, the economic crop planting region, and the rural areas close to the provincial capital have more significant pollution control. Secondly, the environmental protection policy plays a role in reducing the non-point source pollution emissions of the planting industry through the intermediary effects such as the guiding mechanism, the economic incentive mechanism, and the supervision mechanism.

It was found that the vertical distribution curve of annual average soil water content in spring maize field was “single peak and single valley” type. Compared with wet (high water) years, the regulation depth of soil reservoir in the field during the growth period of Spring Maize in dry years moved up and becomes shallow; The soil moisture of Spring Maize in dry (low water) years was more stable than that in wet years. Under the two precipitation years, the “water level” of soil reservoir showed the characteristics of first rising, then falling, and then rising patterns. This study clarified the water source of evapotranspiration water consumption during the growth period of spring maize, evaluated the water balance of farmland ecosystem, and a preliminary understanding of the formation and restoration process of soil dry layer, which provided data support and theoretical basis for improving the practice of existing knowledge of production practice and sustainable development of dry farming.\u0000Bangladesh J.

In order to master the changing law of corn market, realize reasonable regulation and control, and promote the stable development of the market, it is necessary to conduct in-depth research on the influencing factors of corn price fluctuation in Shaanxi Province. Based on the data of Shaanxi Province from 2000 to 2021, in the present study, the main factors affecting the price fluctuation in Shaanxi Province was explored by using factor analysis method. Eight indexes including corn yield, production cost, disaster-affected area, disposable income of rural residents, disposable income of urban residents, corn demand, wheat price index and consumer price were selected as factors affecting corn price fluctuation. Results showed that the disaster area and corn demand were the main factors affecting the corn price fluctuation in Shaanxi Province, and the disposable income of urban and rural residents had little impact on the corn price fluctuation. Governments and industry groups can therefore take preventive measures to limit the impact of major climate events on corn markets and economies. It also assesses the appropriate proportion of corn used for feed and energy production to ensure adequate supply and stable prices.\u0000Bangladesh J.
