1. Remote geographical location: Changtu is located in the northeast of Liaoning Province, China, in a remote mountainous area, with inconvenient transportation and relatively little communication with the outside world, which makes economic development limited to some extent.
2. Bad natural conditions: Changtu has complex terrain, cold climate and barren land, which are not conducive to the development of agriculture and forestry. The harsh natural conditions limit the income sources of local residents and make their living standards relatively low.
3. Single economic structure: the main economic sources of Changtu are agriculture and forestry, but the development of agriculture and forestry industries is difficult due to complex terrain, cold climate and barren land. This single economic structure makes Changtu more dependent on the external economy, and once it encounters economic fluctuations, it will have a greater impact on the local economy.
Generally speaking, poverty in Changtu is the result of many factors. In order to solve the poverty problem in Changtu, we need to improve traffic, optimize industrial structure, improve education level and so on, and persistently promote poverty alleviation, so that Changtu can gradually get rid of poverty.
