The relationship between rural finance development and food ecological total factor productivity: Moderating effects of food science and technology progress

Weijiao Ye, Ziqiang Li, Yuyan Xu · 2023 · Ecological Indicators

Summary. Rural finance development improves food ecological total factor productivity in China, with stronger effects in non-food-producing regions. Food science and technology progress moderates this relationship, particularly benefiting lower-productivity provinces. The study measures ecological value in food cultivation and finds that increased rural finance and technology adoption help achieve higher food production with reduced environmental degradation.
