Taking Zezhou County, Shanxi Province as the analysis and evaluation object, the evaluation index system of integration development for the county agricultural, forestry, cultural, tourism and recreation industry was constructed from four dimensions of economic benefit, social benefit, cultural benefit and ecological benefit, and its evaluation was carried out by using entropy method and grey correlation method. The results showed that, in the integrated development of agriculture, forestry, cultural, tourism and recreation industry in Zezhou County, there were some problems that the comprehensive benefits needed to be improved, the effect of farmers' income increase was not significant, the driving force of service of leading agricultural enterprises and farmers' professional cooperatives needed to be improved, the ecological benefits were not fully reflected, and the development and excavation of cultural and tourism projects needed to be conducted. In view of these problems, the corresponding countermeasures and suggestions were put forward, which would play a guiding role in promoting the orderly development of the integration of agricultural, forestry, cultural, tourism and recreation industry at the county level.

Key words: entropy method, grey correlation method, integration of agriculture, forestry, culture, tourism and recreation industry, development evaluation, Zezhou County
