Abstract: Studies on the spatial process of agricultural regional specialization from villages can reveal the realization process of agricultural regional specialization. By taking Xixia County’s mushroom industry as an example, this paper used author’s survey data on 260 mushroom cultivation villages of 15 townships in Xixia County, examing the production status and spatial changes of mushrooms in each village with time as the axis. Results indicated that: (1)The
number of professional villages continued to increase but the rate of it slow down gradually, the spatial distribution center of new planting villages of gravity continued to shift in the same direction; (2)The number of villages with high level of specialized production has been increasing year by year, and the spatial distribution range of those villages has been continuously expanded; (3)Change situation of specialized production level of villages vary with the different spatial
location of the villages. The principal component analysis and linear regression analysis were used to analyze the causes of the above spatial phenomena. Further analysis finds that:(1)Not all types of resources are conducive to the improvement of the professional production level of the village; (2)The level of specialized production of the villages with higher traffic location advantages may not be higher; (3)Able person can promote the improvement of the professional production level of the villages;(4)The opportunity cost has a profound impact on the promotion of specialized production level of the villages;(5)The government had a significant positive impact on the promotion of the village's specialized production level. The conclusions of this paper can provide reference for the formation of specialized agricultural production areas.
