Abstract: On the basis of expounding the status quo and using developmental trend of China’s straw, 4 indices are selected: straw yield, planting area, using amount of fertilizer and effective irrigation area. According to the relevant data of China Statistical Yearbook from 1991 to 2008, by using linear regression model, we calculate China’s rural straw yield, analyze the factors impacting straw yield, and point out that the using amount of fertilizer is the important factor impacting straw yield. Based on these, in the perspective of low-carbon agricultural economy, we put forward suggestions of using straw comprehensively from 4 perspectives in order to provide theoretical reference for decision-makers: improve fertilizer dependence; develop straw reuse technology; popularize the technology of straw gasification actively; strengthen farmers’ low-carbon awareness.
