How Does the Digital Economy Affect the Distribution of Agricultural Products in Mountain Regions?——An Empirical Study in Guizhou Province
As a new economic form,the digital economy is playing a significant role in promoting the sharing of lo-gistical,business and information flow of farm products in the mountain region,changing the circulation mode and circula-tion efficiency of farm products in the mountain region,and promoting the circulation of farm products in the mountain re-gion.Based on transaction cost theory,this study utilizes relevant data of Guizhou Province and its cities(states)from 2012-2021 to empirically analyze the impact and characteristics of digital economy on the distribution efficiency of agri-cultural products in mountainous areas.Key findings indicate an upward trend in both digital economy development and agricultural product circulation efficiency during the study period.Notably,digital industrialization plays a pivotal role in enhancing farm produce circulation efficiency,while digital infrastructure and technology applications exhibit no signific-ant contribution.Regional variations in the impact of digital economy on farm produce circulation efficiency are observed,with prefecture-level cities contributing more significantly than autonomous municipalities.To further leverage the digital economy's potential in empowering mountainous agricultural products in Guizhou,strategies such as enhancing digital in-frastructure,building robust digital platforms,upgrading technological aspects,and implementing differentiation strategies are proposed.
