As global environmental challenges intensify, promoting green agricultural production technologies (GAPTs) that balance ecological and economic benefits at the farmer level has become a crucial pathway to achieving sustainable development. To achieve this goal, study uses an Ordered Probit model, which empirically tests impact mechanisms of digital supply marketing (DSM) participation on farmers’ adoption GAPTs, based micro-survey 1272 farmers from Shaanxi Province, Gansu Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region in China. The findings reveal following: (1) Participation DSM effectively encourages adopt GAPTs. (2) Such enhances household per capita income, strengthens risk management, lowers entry barriers high-value markets, improves access information, thereby (3) Compared low-capital, high-labor, low-risk technologies, stronger incentivizing effect high-capital, low-labor, high-risk technologies. This offers novel empirical insights into It provides micro-level evidence supporting application agriculture safeguarding sustainability.

In the context of global climate change and energy resource scarcity, understanding factors that influence adoption green production technology by rice farmers promoting a transformation in agricultural practices towards low-carbon environmentally friendly methods represent crucial step achieving sustainable development. This study employs an ordered logit model to comprehensively explore mechanism social capital risk preference within farmers. Research indicates can significantly positively affect farmers’ uptake technology. Among various dimensions, it be seen role participation emerges as particularly salient factor. The analysis demonstrates exerts negative moderating influence. heterogeneity results indicate new-generation part-time prefer adopting new technologies if they possess higher capital. light findings above, is recommended organizational support cooperatives collective action reinforced; use digital agriculture should increased; livelihood changes considered meet their heterogeneous needs accurately; integration carbon emission reduction policies strengthened promote widespread among

Climate change is one of the main crises in world primarily due to greenhouse gas emissions. The agricultural sector a key factor reducing Therefore, this study aims analyze farmers' intentions use low-carbon technologies. Based on theoretical framework adapted from comprehensive action determination model, data were collected through questionnaires distributed among 373 farmers southern region West Azarbaijan province, Iran. Factors influencing identified using structural equation model. results indicated that attitude (β = 0.532), habits 0.282), and objective constraints 0.105) significantly influenced adopt model predicted 68.4% variance intentions. All predictors demonstrated robustness significant positive relationships, except for subjective constraints. Additionally, effectively explained normative processes, habitual situational influences, intentional processes farmers. This research suggests policy solutions promote adoption technologies by response climate change, thereby fostering sustainable agriculture region. When developing future plans adaptation, planners should as fundamental guideline. essential both mitigating enhancing behavioral intentions, which are critical objectives.

Introduction Promoting agricultural low-carbon transformation are essential for achieving the “dual carbon” targets and advancing high-quality development. Methods This study employed evolutionary game theory to construct a tripartite model involving local governments, enterprises, consumers. It stimulated their decision-making processes explored mechanisms of government market. Furthermore, taking into account regional technological differences, this examined differentiated incentive effects two mechanisms, developed comprehensive analytical framework transformation. Results (1) The revealed three evolutionarily stable states, with system evolving toward optimal equilibrium (1,1,1) under specific constraint conditions. (2) To achieve system's Pareto optimality, intervals subsidy coefficients carbon emission penalties were (0.2, 0.25) (1.5, 1.75), respectively. publicity consumption preferences (0.3, 0.35) (0.65, 0.7), (3) Considering western regions lower levels technology should prioritize regulation, supplemented by market adjustment. Central strike balance between methods, whereas eastern more advanced technologies focus on adjustment, regulation as supplement.

Introduction Global crop straw production has increased sharply, leading to serious challenges in burning and disposal. The unsustainable practice of open wastes valuable renewable resources poses significant environmental threats, such as air pollution soil degradation, that undermine global agricultural sustainability. Despite extensive efforts by the Chinese government promote resource utilization (CSRU), low farmer participation reliance on a singular technological structure remain persistent issues. Methods Drawing prospect theory, this study integrates behavioral economics policy analysis examine how farmers’ risk preferences, including aversion, loss nonlinear probability weighting, interact with heterogeneous regulations, incentives, restrictions, guidance, shape CSRU behavior. Using micro-survey data from 440 rural households Liaoning Province, China, we apply logit model quantify these relationships analyze moderating role specific measures. Results empirical results show farmers generally exhibit strong which increases average adoption 10.56%, meanwhile an excessive focus low‐probability risks significantly willingness. Furthermore, fiscal incentives direct subsidies effectively amplify positive effect increasing its marginal impact 23.7%. In contrast, relying solely regulatory measures tends weaken compliance costs, thereby reducing 5.22%. Additional reveals heterogeneity responses based income structures business models: high‐level part‐time much stronger response their aversion being approximately 3.5 times low-level part-time farmers. Discussion By synthesizing insights economics, elucidates mechanism through economic are balanced process highlights critical tools. findings provide evidence for optimizing management, formulating more cost-effective policies, promoting green transformation agriculture.

Low-carbon agricultural technology (LCAT) is essential for China to achieve its carbon emissions peak by 2030 and neutrality 2060. Farmers’ adoption of LCAT crucial adapting mitigating climate change risks. This study explores the social-psychological factors shaping farmers’ behavior, utilizing Theory Planned Behavior Normative Activation Model. Survey data from 360 farmers in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province, were analyzed using structural equation modeling. Findings show that behavioral attitude, perceived control, subjective norms, personal norms have positive direct effects on adoption. The analyses also discovered four mediation paths indirectly influence adoption, including Subjective Norms → Personal Adoption Level; Consequence Awareness Responsibility Attribution Level. deepens our understanding mechanism underlying behavior. findings offer valuable insights promoting low-carbon technologies guiding policy development. Recommendations include leveraging social enhance educating ethical environmental stewardship, raising awareness farming’s impacts, providing incentives technical support reduce barriers.
