In the context of limited funding,how to better leverage the role of fiscal expenditure in the field of environmental protection and improve the efficiency of fiscal environmental expenditure is the key to promoting high-quality development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.Selecting panel data from 11 provinces and cities in the Yangtze River Economic Belt from 2012 to 2021,DEA-BCC and DEA Malmquist models were constructed to analyze their comprehensive efficiency,pure technical efficiency,and scale effi-ciency.The following conclusions were drawn:(1)the efficiency of fiscal environmental protection ex-penditure in the Yangtze River Economic Belt is generally low and there are regional differences.The over-all efficiency of downstream areas is higher than that of midstream areas,slightly higher than that of up-stream areas.(2)Analysis of the Malmquist index reveals that in the early stages,total factor productivity is mainly influenced by technological progress and innovation,while in the later stages it is influenced by the level of institutional management and resource allocation structure.(3)Overall,the decentralization of finance,the improvement of economic development level and industrialization level are not conducive to the growth of fiscal environmental protection expenditure efficiency.The improvement of urbanization level and education level has a significant promoting effect on the efficiency value of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.
