| Abstract |
Low-carbon green utilization of farmland, which is a significant driver of high-quality development of agriculture, has aroused wide concern in the recent years. In practice, the expansion of digital financial inclusion seems to provide valuable opportunities for the development of low-carbon green utilization of farmland. In these conditions, using Chinese provincial panel data from 2011 to 2020 and structural equation model (SEM) analysis in STATA 16.0, this paper empirically verified that: (1) digital financial inclusion is positively related to low-carbon green utilization of farmland; (2) farmland transfer mediates the relationship between digital financial inclusion and low-carbon green utilization of farmland; (3) farmland management scale positively moderates the relationship between farmland transfer and low-carbon green utilization of farmland and it is in support of moderated mediating effects. This paper attempts to investigate whether, how, and when digital financial inclusion can affect low-carbon green utilization of farmland, which provides new empirical evidence for the improvement of farmland green utilization. |
