“…The aforementioned research results underscore the regional variation in the factors influencing AGTFP. This aligns with the findings of Zhao et al (2022) and Yang et al (2019). To improve AGTFP in a specific region, it is imperative to conduct a thorough analysis of the local context and avoid adopting practices from other regions indiscriminately.…”

Sustainable development of agriculture has an important impact on both society and economy. In order to understand the patterns of spatio-temporal variation and the factors influencing agricultural green total factor productivity (AGTFP), this paper used Shandong province of China as a case study. Utilizing the SBM-DEA and Malmquist models, along with panel regression methods, the study analyzes AGTFP based on data from the Shandong Statistical Yearbook (2009-2019). The results showed that: (1) the AGTFP in Shandong province was smaller than the total factor productivity when not considering the undesirable output, and the AGTFP in most regions of Shandong province needed to be improved. (2) The AGTFP of Shandong province showed an annual rising trend, especially in the eastern and northern regions. (3) In addition to the levels of technology and management, the industrialization and level of personal development of farmers is also shown to have impacted on AGTFP. Recommendations include adopting advanced technologies, enhancing land management, promoting tertiary sector development, expanding agricultural processing, and improving farmer skills through education and training to boost AGTFP to achieve a sustainable agricultural economy.

“…However, in reality, because agriculture has the attribute of a public good, there will inevitably be some correlation among provinces, and whether and what kind of impact the influencing factors in the home province will have on the green total factor productivity of maize in neighboring provinces is one of the pressing questions in this paper. Some research (Liu, 2019;Hu J. et al, 2022;Hu Q. et al, 2022;Xiao et al, 2022;Zhao et al, 2022) argues that while spatial correlations and maize GTFP are considered together, the interactions between different regions are neglected, and the traditional regression model analysis fails to reflect the role of each influencing factor well. To better study the trends of GTFP changes in China's major maize-producing regions, this study further examined the spatial characteristics of agricultural GTFP in the major maizeproducing regions using the Moran index, based on which an empirical study was conducted on the factors affecting the green development of maize in China using the spatial Durbin model.…”

Frontiers is more than just an open access publisher of scholarly articles: it is a pioneering approach to the world of academia, radically improving the way scholarly research is managed. The grand vision of Frontiers is a world where all people have an equal opportunity to seek, share and generate knowledge. Frontiers provides immediate and permanent online open access to all its publications, but this alone is not enough to realize our grand goals. Frontiers journal seriesThe Frontiers journal series is a multi-tier and interdisciplinary set of openaccess, online journals, promising a paradigm shift from the current review, selection and dissemination processes in academic publishing. All Frontiers journals are driven by researchers for researchers; therefore, they constitute a service to the scholarly community. At the same time, the Frontiers journal series operates on a revolutionary invention, the tiered publishing system, initially addressing specific communities of scholars, and gradually climbing up to broader public understanding, thus serving the interests of the lay society, too. Dedication to qualityEach Frontiers article is a landmark of the highest quality, thanks to genuinely collaborative interactions between authors and review editors, who include some of the world's best academicians. Research must be certified by peers before entering a stream of knowledge that may eventually reach the public -and shape society; therefore, Frontiers only applies the most rigorous and unbiased reviews. Frontiers revolutionizes research publishing by freely delivering the most outstanding research, evaluated with no bias from both the academic and social point of view. By applying the most advanced information technologies, Frontiers is catapulting scholarly publishing into a new generation. What are Frontiers Research Topics?Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers journals series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area.

“…This approach offers a more precise depiction of the correlation between input and output in agricultural production. To establish a measurement system for AETFP, we have considered the practices of other scholars [60,61]. The research has selected several input indicators, including human capital, farmland, fertilizers, agricultural machines, effective irrigation area, and irrigation water resources.…”

The convergence of rural industries has brought about significant changes in the traditional small-scale farmer management model, as well as new requirements for the quality and skills of agricultural practitioners in China. Meanwhile, it has inevitably affected the agricultural environmental total factor productivity (AETFP). This paper endeavors to assess the impact of industrial convergence on AETFP, striving to clarify their inherent connection and furnish insightful guidance for policymaking. Utilizing inter-provincial panel data from China spanning 2008 to 2021, this paper applies the SBM-GML model for measurement purposes and employs the entropy method to evaluate the extent of industrial convergence in rural areas. It delves into the mechanism through which industrial convergence influences AETFP, utilizing the intermediary effect model and incorporating two mediating variables: rural human capital and agricultural scale operations. The findings of this research reveal that industrial convergence exerts a direct positive influence on AETFP, while rural human capital and agricultural scale operations serve as partial mediators in this process. Additionally, the stability of the transmission mechanism receives further validation via the application of interaction terms. Consequently, it is possible to enhance AETFP via the expedited convergent development of industries, coupled with the strategic utilization of rural human capital and agricultural scale operations as catalysts for further improvements in AETFP.
