As an important means to promote changes in cultivated land production input,crop types,and cultivated land value,urban-rural integration is the key to influence cultivated land use transformation.In this study,the entropy weight TOPSIS method was used to measure the level of urban-rural integration and cultivated land use transformation,and panel regression,mediation effect,and spatial Durbin models were used to explore the impact,mechanism,and spillover effects of urban-rural integration on cultivated land use transformation.This study found that:1)Urban-rural integration positively affects cultivated land use transformation,and the impact is mainly implicit.2)From the regional perspective,the impact of urban-rural integration on cultivated land use transformation is stronger in the central and western regions.3)Urban-rural integration has an impact on cultivated land use transformation through infrastructure construction,agricultural industrial structure upgrading,and labor transfer effects.4)The impact of urban-rural integration on cultivated land use transformation has a spatial spillover effect,and the indirect effect is greater than the direct effect.Therefore,for the integration of urban and rural areas,it is necessary to strengthen infrastructure construction,promote the upgrading of agricultural industrial structure,accelerate the free flow of factors,pay attention to the difference and spillover of the impact of urban-rural integration,and promote cultivated land use transformation.
