The paper constructed agricultural film pollution EKC model of vegetable industry in Hebei province, Based on 1999-2011 vegetables average yield per hectare as vegetable industry development level ,the density of agricultural films as variable combined with planting area and total production time index. The empirical results has shown that the relationship between the density of agricultural films in Hebei province and economic development is with linear growth characteristic not a typical inverted "U" type EKC characteristic. Therefore, in the process of making vegetables industry policy and vegetables environmental protection policy, the government should take measures to control the occurrence of vegetables agricultural films source pollution actively. Not using the inverted U type of EKC curve does as the excuse of first pollution, after management.
