Digital Rural Planning:Realistic Dilemmas and Practical Pathways
Digital rural planning is an important effort to leverage digital technology to drive the modernization of agriculture and rural areas and promote comprehensive rural revitalization.The development of digital villages is driven by three main fac-tors:national policies,research emphasis,and strategic initiatives.However,four sig-nificant challenges remain,including the underutilization of the digital economy's po-tential,which slows industrial digital transformation and prevents the full realization of digital dividends.To address the challenges in digital village construction,this pa-per proposes a theoretical framework for digital rural planning.It emphasizes the three potentials of the digital economy to advance industrial planning,enhance spa-tial planning through visualization,and improve the efficiency of collaborative plan-ning.Drawing on key experience from representative demonstration areas,this paper outlines practical strategies such as improving information infrastructure,creating inte-grated virtual and real spaces,strengthening the talent pool of digital professional,exploring governance technology empowerment,establishing comprehensive urban-rural digital integration plans,and improving institutional design.These measures are proposed with the aim of achieving the strategic objective of successful digital vil-lage construction.
