Conclusions and policy suggestions
Through the SD model analysis, it is possible to completely simulate nonlinear and systematic complex problems and integrate the four modules of economy, land, technology, and environment. The relationships between variables completely follow the results of the system and were not set to a specific function relationship in advance. This significantly contributed toward enhancing the predictability of the model. In addition, we applied system dynamics to predict and simulate the land supply chain, and we clearly understood what decisions can be made and what kind of policy results can be produced. By planning data envelopment analysis, policymakers can better understand how to improve land utilization efficiency to solve the land shortage issue. Compared with research of traditional supply chain, emphasis of this paper lies in “green”, that is, influence of each link during land use on environment. By establishing TEEE model, all indexes that relevant to land use are included into technology, economy, energy and environment subsystems. SD model is used to combine these four subsystems and their indexes to simulate practical production processes and policies. For green supply chain of land, resource, environment, technology and economy are all sensitive restrictive factors. Through screening of different factors and combination of them, different schemes can be formed for analysis. To find the optimal policy measures, we used DEA model to analyze the efficiency of input and output of TEEE system. The higher the efficiency value, the better the effects of policy.
