Research on Configuration Path for Improving Agricultural Circulation Efficiency under Carbon Constraints:Qualitative Comparative Analysis Based on Provincial Panel Data
The circulation efficiency of agricultural products will be comprehensively affected by various factors such as technology,organization and environment(TOE),which are different across the provinces,re-sulting in unbalanced development of the agricultural product circulation industry,so it is difficult to synchro-nize the improvement path of agricultural product circulation efficiency.Exploring the configuration path en-compassing factors such as technology,organization and environmental is helpful to formulate relevant strate-gies to improve the circulation efficiency of agricultural products.From the perspective of configuration,we took carbon dioxide emissions as the index of non-expected output,and used the Super-SBM model to estimate the circulation efficiency of agricultural products in 30 provinces and cities in China from 2011 to 2021.On such basis,with the aim of improving the circulation ef-ficiency of agricultural products,we selected three influencing factors including technology,organization and environment within the TOE theoretical framework,and analyzed the configuration effect of different fac-tors on the circulation efficiency of agricultural products using qualitative comparative analysis(QCA).The research shows that(1)the circulation efficiency of agricultural products considering carbon emission shows obvious regional difference,with high efficiency in eastern and central China and low efficiency in western China.The increase rate of circulation efficiency in 2016-2021 is greater than that in 2011-2015;(2)the development process of agricultural product circulation industry is affected by many factors such as technology,organization and environment,but a single factor is not a necessary condition to promote or re-strict the improvement of agricultural product circulation efficiency under the constraint of carbon emission;(3)on a national level,there are three configuration paths that can drive the improvement of the circulation efficiency of agricultural products,namely the technology-led path,technology-organization collaborative path,and technology-environment collaborative path,with the technology factor as the core condition;(4)there is only one configuration path for low circulation efficiency of agricultural products,namely lack of technology.In this case,human resources and environmental regulation as core conditions can not improve the circulation efficiency of agricultural products,a typical case of which is the western China.Finally,based on the research conclusions,we proposed policy recommendations to improve the circula-tion efficiency of agricultural products under carbon constraints.
