THE IMPACT OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION IN AGRICULTURE ON GREEN GROWTH IN AGRICULTURE
Green development in agriculture is an important way to achieve high-quality agricultural development,and it is of practical significance to study the green growth effect of digital transformation in agriculture.In this paper,we selected Chinese provincial panel data from 2013 to 2019,measured digital agricultural and agricultural green total factor productivity indicators respectively by using the entropy method and SBM_GML index,and empirically investigated the impact of agricultural digitalization transformation on agricultural green growth and the path of effect by using the fixed effect,mediating effect and threshold effect models.The results were showed as follows.Agricultural digitalization had a significant contribution to agricultural green growth,and the effect was larger in coastal areas than inland areas and in non-food-primary production areas than in food-primary production areas.Agricultural digitalization acted on agricultural green growth through green technology innovation,agricultural scale operation and agricultural planting structure optimization.There were significant threshold effects of Tao bao villages agglomeration and digital financial inclusion between agricultural digital transformation and agricultural green growth.As the threshold interval increased,the impact of agricultural digital transformation on agricultural green growth showed a"positive U-shaped"relationship that first shrank and then expanded.Therefore,we implement the concept of green development and implement the development strategy of agricultural digital transformation around agricultural green growth to promote sustainable agricultural development.
