The impact of new digital infrastructure on agriculture green development: evidence from China

Introduction New digital infrastructure (NDI) is a key driver for agricultural green development (AGD). However, its underlying mechanisms and heterogeneous impacts remain to be explored. This study focuses on agricultural green total factor productivity (AGTFP) in China, aiming to elucidate the direct effects of NDI on AGD, its mediating pathways, and geographical heterogeneity, thereby providing theoretical evidence and policy implications for the green transformation of agriculture.
