“…As one of the three karst-concentrated distribution areas in the world, the karst area in southern China has many factors that are not conducive to agricultural production. These factors, such as bedrock exposure, small soil stock, and discontinuous distribution [18,19], make agricultural planting difficult, and the cost of cultivated land management is very high. Additionally, due to the development of karst, the surface water is difficult to maintain, which means there is a serious water shortage in this region, but at the same time, the discharge of surface water in the rainy season is too late, causing water accumulation in some karst depressions.…”

Cultivated land resources are important natural resource assets that are related to food security and sustainable development. Due to the many restrictive factors of the karst landform on agricultural production, the quantity and quality of cultivated land in the karst mountainous areas in Southwest China are poor. Reclaiming cultivated land to develop economy or to avoid transitional reclamation to protect ecology is an important proposition in this area. Analyzing changes in the physical and monetary value of cropland resources can help us to formulate more reasonable policies for the development and utilization of cultivated land resources, and to achieve a win-win scenario for economic development and ecological protection. Using multi-source remote sensing data and 20-year landcover data obtained by the GEE platform, this paper evaluated the cropland resources of the karst mountain areas of China at the pixel level. It was found that under the apparent outflow of the physical account of the cultivated land resources, the monetary value still maintained growth, proving that the current cultivated land-use policy in Guizhou Province has significantly improved the value of local cultivated land resources.
