Yuanyuan Zhang, Chenyujing Yang, Shaocong Yan, Wukui Wang, Yongji Xue · 2023 · Sustainability

Summary. Returning farmers in rural China can alleviate relative poverty by sharing entrepreneurial knowledge and experience with other poor households through family, local, and internet networks. This diffusion model reduces entrepreneurial barriers, increases farmer income, creates employment, and improves rural environments across economic, social, and ecological dimensions. Success requires supportive government policies and active local participation.
