Agricultural Productivity and Its Spatial Pattern Evolution in Northern Anhui Province from the Perspective of County
Improving the efficiency of agricultural production is of great significance to ensure the sustainable development of agriculture and promote the national strategy of agricultural modernization.In this paper,35 districts(counties)in northern Anhui were selected as the decision evaluation unit,the real level of agricultural production efficiency in northern Anhui was measured by three-stage DEA model,and the spatial auto-correlation model was combined to show the spatial agglomeration effect of agricultural production efficiency in northern Anhui.The results show that:from the perspective of time series,the overall agricultural productivity in north Anhui showed a slight downward trend.The level of agricultural productivity in the early stage of the study was generally better than that in the later stage,and the number of regions(counties)in the forefront of technical efficiency increased after adjustment.Per capita GDP has become a favorable factor for the improvement of agricultural production efficiency,and the expenditure on agriculture,forestry and water affairs and the proportion of tertiary industry have both positive and negative effects on agricultural production efficiency.From the perspective of global space,except for 2017,there were obvious spatial positive correlation and spatial agglomeration of agricultural production efficiency in northern Anhui in other years.From the perspective of local space,the spatial agglomeration effect of agricultural production efficiency in northern Anhui was weakening with the change of time,and the spatial distribution pattern was dominated by the same agglomeration("high-high"or"low-low"type).Based on this,the study of the real level of agricultural production efficiency and its spatial distribution characteristics in northern Anhui has certain significance for subsequent thinking about the development path of agricultural production in northern Anhui,in order to provide a theoretical basis for accurately improving the current situation of agricultural production in northern Anhui and perfecting corresponding policies and measures for agricultural development.
