Abstract The digital economy is an essential engine of the innovation-driven development strategy and plays a valuable role in promoting high-quality regional economy. Based on panel data 286 cities mainland China with help strategic plans issued by local governments as quasi-natural experiment, we use multi-temporal double-difference (DID) method to examine impact urban innovation level. Findings show that can significantly improve After series robustness tests, such parallel trend test, updating sample period, repeated placebo innovation-driving effect generated remains significant. Results mechanism analysis indicate enhances level through upgrading industrial structures. In addition, find heterogeneity test has stronger improving quality innovation. Meanwhile, output Middle Eastern region more affected “Digital China” than Western region. Therefore, should accelerate implementation realize

Transitioning to low-carbon agriculture: the non-linear role of digital inclusive finance in China’s agricultural carbon emissions

Humanities and Social Sciences Communications, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 11(1)

Published: June 24, 2024

Abstract Promoting low-carbon agricultural development is essential for achieving carbon neutrality and peak emission goals. The emergence of digital inclusive finance has opened a new pathway to reduce emissions. This study uses data from various provinces in China 2011 2021 explore the impact on emissions its mechanism action. results show that during period, first increased then decreased, with gap between eastern western regions narrowing, while southern northern widened. Digital an inverted “U-shaped” nonlinear emissions, depth use degree digitization being key factors. Agricultural only begin be effectively suppressed when scale exceeds value. Additionally, green cooperatives weakens reduction effect finance, indicating decoupling their developments, accumulation human capital enhances effect. Based this, government advised continue promoting strategies inclusivity rural areas. Financial institutions should develop financial products suitable cooperatives, also provide timely feedback communication achieve coordinated two.
