摘要

New agricultural business entities (NABEs) served as pivotal agents in advancing modern agriculture. Assessing how NABEs influenced agriculture’s pollution-carbon synergy carried dual implications, both for theoretical advancement and practical policy-making. This paper established a comprehensive analytical framework to theorize the impact of the SNABE scale on agricultural PCSRE. The empirical strategy encompassed two-way fixed-effects models, mechanism analysis, and spatial econometric specifications, leveraging panel data from 30 Chinese provinces spanning 2007–2023. The findings indicated that expanding the SNABE enhanced the PCSRE in agriculture. The analysis of underlying mechanisms identified the broadening and deepening of agricultural labor division, alongside technological advancement, as the primary pathways through which SNABE expansion strengthened PCSRE in agriculture. The SNABE’s PCSRE in agriculture varies significantly across regions with different resource endowments and levels of human capital. These effects were particularly evident in eastern, steep-terrain, and high-human-capital regions compared with elsewhere. Spatial analysis indicates that expanding the SNABE exerts an adverse spatial spillover effect on the PCSRE in agriculture. Furthermore, expanding the SNABE also generates socioeconomic benefits, including agricultural economic growth, higher farmer incomes, improved food security, and increased rural employment. Based on the findings, this paper recommends strengthening the cultivation and support of NABEs to enhance their demonstration effect in agricultural green transformation. It also suggests establishing cross-regional coordination mechanisms to facilitate a collaborative framework for emission reduction, leveraging regional synergies and comparative advantages.
