Rural revitalization needs to take the path of"urban-rural integration",and the development of digital inclusive finance has become a significant measure to boost urban-rural integration and achieve rural revitalization.Based on panel data from 31 provinces from 2011 to 2020,this study examines the impact of digital inclusive finance on urban-rural integration from the perspective of labor mismatch.The research indicates that digital inclusive finance promotes urban-rural integration,with a stronger effect in the eastern regions compared to the central and western regions.The panel threshold effect indicates that the promotion effect of digital inclusive finance on urban-rural integration has a non-linear characteristic,with a stronger effect in regions with higher levels of economic development.The mediation effect test shows that digital inclusive finance indirectly promotes urban-rural integration by lowering the degree of labor mismatch.Therefore,relevant departments should continue to build digital infrastructure,focus on building digital inclusive finance in rural areas,promote factor marketization,and improve the transparency of labor factors.
