昆仑山北坡区域是新时代维护国家安全的重要战略部署区和“丝绸之路经济带”核心区关键通道，战略地位十分突出。但由于历史和自然的原因，该区域经济发展相对滞后。系统分析显示，昆仑山北坡区域目前存在的水资源利用上线偏低、水利工程建设严重滞后、城镇化进程缓慢、产业布局相对单一且缺少重要产业布局，以及区域高质量发展动能不足等问题，结合区域自然环境特点和发展机遇，提出加快构建经济带城市群体系，打造多产业协同发展的昆仑山北坡经济带，大幅提升水资源上线和水利工程管控能力，为昆仑山北坡农业提质增效提供水资源保障，系统打造昆仑山北坡农-林-牧复合基地，构建多元化食物供给体系，以能补水，提升资源综合利用效率，通过兵地优势互补、资源共享，加快推进昆仑山北坡经济带建设和高质量发展等建议。研究成果可为加快昆仑山北坡经济带生态安全和高质量发展提供科技支撑。

The northern slope of the Kunlun Mountains is a strategically important area for safeguarding national security in the new era and a key passage in the “Silk Road Economic Belt”, with a prominent strategic position. However, due to historical and natural reasons, the economic development in this region is relatively lagging. This paper systematically analyzes the current issues in the high-quality development in the northern slope of the Kunlun Mountains, including low water utilization limit, serious lag in water conservancy construction, relatively single industrial layout, slow urbanization process with a lack of important industrial layout, and insufficient driving force for high-quality regional development. In conjunction with the regional natural environmental characteristics and development opportunities, this paper proposes to accelerate the construction of an urban cluster system for this economic belt with multi-industry coordinated development, significantly improve the water resource utilization limits and enhance water management capabilities with conservancy engineering, guarantee the water resource security for agricultural upgrading and efficiency improvement in the economic belt of the northern slope of the Kunlun Mountains. It is proposed to systematically build a multi-functional agricultural-forestry-pastoral base in the region, construct a diversified food supply system, bridge the water deficit with energy, improve comprehensive resource utilization efficiency. By advantages leveraging and resource sharing between the Production and Construction Corps of Xinjiang and local communities, it aims to accelerate the construction and high-quality development of the economic belt of the northern slope of Kunlun Mountains. The research findings can provide technological support for ecological security and accelerating high-quality development in the economic belt of the northern slope of the Kunlun Mountains.
