Dividing farmland into different zones for facilitating management (management zone) at regional scalescan help improve agricultural production in reforming agricultural technology implementation in China. Improving detailed prescriptionof the management zone division can provide guidance to farming and service optimization at regional scale.Appropriately selecting indexes in management zones can reduce the required data and can thus subsequentlyimprove management.Available index selection usually relies on empirical knowledge of expertsand/or multivariate statistical analysis. However, expert evaluation method could be bias, while the multivariate statistical analysis methodcannot reduce the number of indexes compared to the original index set and thus need to supervisethe data. In addition, most existing work on fragmentation of management zones focused on zone-dividing method rather than from index selection by removing indexes that lead to fragmentation. This paper aims to resolve these limitations with a proposedunsupervised filtering index selection method, based on the index correlation clustering (FSCC) using the concept of feature selection. FSCC reduces the original index set to obtain a subset called FSCC set. FSCC applies the correlation matrix of all indexes to cluster the original indexes set. It then selectsall cluster centers as a representatives to form a new index subset as theFSCC set. The quantity of the indexes in the FSCC setwas reduced,compared to the original index set, and the redundancy of the indices set was descended. To improve practical operability of the management zones, we applied the index optimization algorithm developed based on the consistency and integrity (CIO) to the FSCC set to remove indices which resulted in fragmentation. CIO couples Kappa Coefficient with fragmentation index to generate an optimization strategy for the FSCC sets. CIO screens the indices which lead to the fragmentationwhile, in the meantime, considering the consistency of the management zone results prior to and after the optimization. We applied the method to winter wheat in China, with factors that affect wheat growth, including meteorology, soil and topography, being dividedat fourregional scales. We first usedthe FSCC and the two traditional filter feature selection methods, Variance and Laplacian Score, to select index subsets for thefour scales, and compared the resultant management zones produced from them. The CIO was then applied to the four scales produced by the FSCC. The results showed that the FSCC method preserves the diversity of the features in the original index set. It significantly removed the redundant indices and had a better performance in the management zones. The best performance shows that in Rugao 2.5 km Grain, FSCC less than 52.44%, 49.52%, 49.45% both of Variance and Laplacian Score in FPI, MPE, NCE. The CIO improved the management zones effect of the FSCC index set, which reduced the number of indexes and effectively removed the indexes that led to anumber of isolated units or patches. Compare to FSCC, except Nantong 10km, CIO has an average decrease in FPI, MPE, NCE of 0.061, 0.078, 0.082. Usingthe fourregional scales, FSCC and CIO presented in this paper were effectivein selecting indices and havepotentialapplication in management zone division.
