Regional Differences and Dynamic Evolution of Agricultural and Rural Modernization Development Level in the Yellow River Basin
Promoting the modernization of agriculture and rural areas is an important target task for the implementation of rural revitalization,as well as a necessary way to realize Chinese path of modernization.Based on the statistical data of nine provinces in the Yellow River basin from 2010 to 2022,the study measured the development level of agricultural and rural modernization in the Yellow River basin by using the entropy weight-TOPSIS method,and researched its regional differences and dynamic evolution characteristics based on the Dagum's Gini coefficient,Moran's I,kernel density estimation,and Markov chain.The results showed that in the sample observation period,the development level of agricultural and rural modernization,agricultural modernization and rural modernization in the Yellow River basin displayed an upward trend from 2010 to 2022,but the development level of rural modernization rose slower;the overall difference in the development level of agricultural and rural modernization showed a fluctuating downward trend,in which the difference between groups was the main source of the overall difference and there was a significant spatial aggregation;the distribution curve of nuclear density had gradually shifted to the right,and the polarization had improved;it is also found that the future development level of agricultural and rural modernization in the Yellow River basin showed a gradient upward trend,and the future development level of each province was related to its neighboring provinces.Accordingly,multi-directional attention should be paid to rural development,regional characteristic industries should be developed according to local conditions,regional synergistic cooperation should be strengthened,and the radiation-driven role of regions with high levels of agricultural and rural modernization development should be brought into full play.
