Abstract: Although industrial factories can rapidly promote economic development, they have caused significant damage to rural ecosystems. Based on the principle of ecological sustainable development, this paper analyses the characteristics of rural resources and combines IoT sensor technology to develop green industries such as tourism and e-commerce, in order to solve the problems of rural ecological balance and industrial development. This paper compares the situation before and after the implementation of rural green industry planning in Wuyuan County and Haifeng County, respectively. The experimental results show that in Wuyuan County, the average economic growth rate of traditional rural enterprises is 34.08%, while after the implementation of rural green industry planning, this growth rate has increased to 72.04%. In Haifeng County, the average economic growth rate of traditional rural enterprises is 42.04%, but after implementing the rural green industry plan, the growth rate increases to 64.64%.

Keywords: rural green industry; coordinated development; ecological sustainability; internet of things; IoT.
