Abstract
Abstract: The relationship between agricultural environmental pollution and economic development has aroused the concern of theorists and practitioners, as it is directly related to agricultural economic growth and country's grain security. Based on the theory of environmental Kuznets curve, this paper studies the relationship between agricultural economic growth and agricultural non-point source pollution with the data of Chengdu from 1995 to 2012. The research results show that the relationship between per capita gross output value of agriculture (including farming, forestry, animal husbandry and fishery) and fertilizer input density reveals an N-shaped pattern. At the same time, there are 3 inverted U curves existing between per capita gross output value of agriculture and mulching input film density, pesticide input density and the number of slaughtered fattened hogs, and these pollutants have passed through the turning points of curves. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the management of chemical fertilizer, pesticide and mulching film, to increase the investment for new technology and the support of soil remediation technology and soil remediation industry, and to implement strict supervision to ensure the quality and safety of agricultural products.
