自2009年12月《鄱阳湖生态经济区规划》获得国务院批准以来，江西省正全力推进鄱阳湖生态经济区建设。由于循环农业是鄱阳湖生态经济区“环境友好型产业”的重要组成部分，因此近年来江西省在该区域正积极发展循环农业。循环农业是一种农业可持续发展模式，是典型的资源节约型、环境友好型农业模式，是未来农业发展的重要方向。本文在调查研究的基础上，对鄱阳湖生态经济区发展循环农业的意义、优势、模式，以及存在的问题和应采取的对策等进行了深入分析，认为：（1）鄱阳湖生态经济区发展循环农业具有节约资源、保护环境、提高农产品质量、增加农民经济收入、提升干部群众素质和助推建设“美丽湖区”等多方面的意义；（2）鄱阳湖生态经济区发展循环农业具有气候适宜、土壤肥沃、生物多样、资源丰富、环境优美、交通便利、区位优越、基础良好和政策扶持等诸多有利条件和优势；（3）当前，鄱阳湖生态经济区循环农业主要有立体型、共生型、再生型、循环型、减灾型、休闲型、低碳型和复合型等类型与模式；（4）根据调查，目前鄱阳湖生态经济循环农业发展尚存在认识不深、重视不够、资金不足、技术不新、模式不优、推广不力、素质不高、规模不大、链接不紧、交流不多、奖惩不力和效益不佳等各种问题；（5）针对存在的问题，应采取如下对策和措施：加强学习，加深认识；科学规划，有序发展；增加投入，改善条件；优化模式，创新技术；扩大规模，提高效益；培训人才，提升素质；开展交流，扩大合作；健全制度，规范管理；重视科技，加强研发；强化推广，服务“三农”。

On the basis of investigation and research, the significances, advantages, modes, problems, and countermeasures of the development of circular agriculture in the ecological economic zone of Poyang Lake were analyzed deeply. (1) There are a lot of significances in the developing circular agriculture in ecological economic zone of Poyang Lake, for example, saving resources, protecting environment, improving the quality of agricultural products, increasing the economic income of farmers, enhancing the sense of quality of the cadres and the masses, and promoting the construction of the "beautiful of ecological economic zone of Poyang Lake", etc. (2) There are a lot of favorable conditions and advantages in the developing circular agriculture in ecological economic zone of Poyang Lake, for example, suitable climate, fertile soil, biological diversity, rich resources, beautiful environment, convenient transportation, superior location, good foundation, and policy support, and so on. (3) At present, the types and modes of circular agriculture in ecological economic zone of Poyang Lake are the type of three-dimensional use of agricultural resource, the type of biological symbiosis among organisms, the type of regeneration of agricultural resource, the type of resource recycling, the type of disaster reduction, the type of recreation agriculture, the type of low carbon agriculture, and the type of compound model agriculture. (4) According to the survey, at present there are a lot of problems in the developing of circular agriculture in the ecological economic zone of Poyang Lake, for example: not knowing of the meaning of circular agriculture, not paying enough attention to circular agriculture, lacking of funds, old technologies of circular agriculture, not excellent model of circular agriculture, poor promotion of results in circular agriculture, low quality of people in the zone, small scale of circular agriculture, relax in linking of circular agriculture, not much communication among the peoples in the zone, ineffective rewards and punishment in the zone, and poor efficiency of circular agriculture in the zone. (5) In view of the existing problems, the following measures should be taken. The first, to strengthen learning and deepen the understanding of circular agriculture; the second, to do scientific planning and to develop orderly in circular agriculture of the zone; the third, to increase investment and to improve the conditions; the fourth, to optimize model and to innovate technology of circular agriculture in the zone; the fifth, to expand the scale and to improve efficiency of circular agriculture in the zone; the sixth, to train personnel and to improve quality of cadres and farmers of the zone; the seventh, to carry out exchanges and to expand cooperation in circular agriculture; the eighth, to perfect the systems and to standardize the management in the developing of circular agriculture in the zone; the ninth, to attach importance to science and technology and to strengthen the research and development of circular agriculture; and the last, to strengthen the promotion of results in circular agriculture and to serve the agriculture, rural, and farmers.
