Scientific and technical innovation is the fundamental driving force for regional economic growth and industrial upgrading.On the basis of measuring and evaluating the comprehensive level of scientific and technical innovation and the level of rural industry revitalization in Shanxi province,the coupling coordination degree of the two is analyzed by using the coupling coordination degree model.The results show that:(1)the coupling coordination degree of scientific and technical innovation and rural industry revitalization in Shanxi province is relatively low,which can be divided into two stages.From 2012 to 2018,the coupling coordination of scientific and technical innovation and rural industry revitalization in Shanxi province was on the verge of imbalance or barely coordinated.From 2019 to 2021,the coupling coordination degree of scientific and technical innovation and rural industry revitalization in Shanxi province rose to 0.772,transiting from reluctant coordination to intermediate coordination.(2)Due to the unbalanced economic development,the coupling and coordinated development of each city in Shanxi province is unbalanced,showing the characteristics of decreasing from the core Taiyuan to the surrounding areas.(3)Eight factors related to science and technology innovation,such as the number of ordinary colleges and universities,the number of scientific research and technical development research workers at or above the county level,are the main factors affecting the coupling and coordinated development of science and technology innovation and rural industry revitalization.That is,the low level of scientific and technical innovation is an important reason leading to the overall low coupling coordination degree of the two,and scientific and technical innovation should be vigorously developed to play its driving role in the revitalization of rural industries.
