“…To capture the influence of Confucian culture on the central concepts of this work, this paper adopts the approach used by Yu et al (2020) and uses the number of Confucian academies within a 200‐km radius of the firm's registered location as a proxy variable for Confucian culture. A higher concentration of Confucian academies within a certain radius indicates a stronger influence of Confucian culture on the firm.…”

This study examines the practices of listed firms in heavily polluting industries in China and their approaches to corporate social responsibility. Specifically, it explores the relationship between corporate environmental irresponsibility (CEIR), charitable donations (CD), and financial performance. A sample of Chinese A‐share listed firms in heavily polluting industries from 2012 to 2019 is used to empirically test this relationship. The results show that CEIR has a penalty effect on financial performance; firms with higher levels of environmental irresponsibility experience poorer financial performance. However, CD can mitigate this negative impact. This paper sheds light on the underlying motivations of firms neglecting their environmental responsibilities while being diligent in charitable activity. It provides theoretical foundation and policy recommendations for addressing imbalances in corporate social responsibility based on whether firms can offset environmental shortcomings through charitable acts.

“…Farmers, as “rational economic people,” will inevitably consider factors such as costs, benefits, and risks, which lead to differences in the adoption of GCTs by farmers and make it difficult to achieve large-area diffusion of green control technologies ( Gao et al, 2017 ; Gao and Niu, 2019 ). At present, the use of GCTs in China remains mainly experimental and implemented at a small scale, and has become one of the “bottlenecks” limiting the sustainable development of Chinese agriculture ( Yu et al, 2020a , 2021a ). Demand from farmers, who constitute the micro decision-making body of agricultural production and operation, would be the basis for the successful application of GCTs.…”

Encouraging farmers to adopt green prevention and control techniques (GCTs) is conducive to ensuring the quality and safety of agricultural products, the ecological environment and agricultural production in China. To explore the factors influencing vegetable farmers’ adoption of GCTs, this study utilized the “information-motivation-behavior” intervention (IMB) model and ordered logistic model to empirically study the adoption behavior of 653 vegetable farmers in Henan Province, China. Estimation results indicated that the IMB model significantly predicted farmers’ adoption of GCTs: 1) From the perspective of adoption decisions, 88.82% of the farmers have adopted GCTs, but the degree of adoption is low. 2) the farmers’ adoption of GCTs IMB model specifies that higher levels of GCTs information, motivation, and behavioral skills should result in a greater likelihood of engaging in GCTs adoption behavior. 3) Motivation and behavioral skills are activated through information. 4) Finally, motivation can indirectly affect farmers’ GCTs adoption behavior through behavioral skills. The results of this study support the need for the government to promote the use of GCTs for vegetable pest control, as well as advance integrated prevention and control in the agricultural industry.
