Low-carbon energy on agricultural production transition and its environmental effects
Based on the input and output data of agricultural production in 31 provinces(municipalities)in China from 2013 to 2022,the impacts of green and low-carbon energy cooperation on agricultural production transformation and its environmental effects were studied using stochastic frontier analysis method.The results show that:(1)the estimated coefficients are significantly positive for sowing area,agricultural labor force and total power of agricultural machinery.(2)China's agricultural environmental benefits show a trend of decline in the middle,west and east regions.The average efficiency of agricultural production environment in the central region was 0.7432,which was 13.21%higher than the national average.The average environmental efficiency of agricultural production in central China was 0.7432,which was 13.21%higher than the national average.The western and eastern regions were 0.6792 and 0.4401,respectively.(3)There is obvious non-equilibrium in space and time of environmental efficiency of agricultural production in our country.The environmental efficiency of the three regions showed a decreasing trend in the central,western and eastern regions.The environmental efficiency of the whole country and the three regions showed a decreasing trend.(4)In the eastern and western regions,the efficiency of agricultural production environment is at its own equilibrium level,and the efficiency of agricultural production environment in the central region is finally stable at the same level.
