ABSTRACT:
For a long time, the traditional crude mode of agricultural production makes the agricultural
surface pollution deepening, the agricultural development mode for the green transformation of
the demand is very urgent, accelerate the green transformation of the agricultural development
mode, enhance the agriculture green TFP of is to promote the sustainable development of
agriculture is an effective path. Therefore, using panel data from 9 municipal-level
administrative districts in Fujian Province from 2011 to 2021 and Accounting for Agricultural
Green TFP in Fujian Province Using the MML Index Method. Conclusion: (1) Fujian Province's
agricultural green TFP has grown at an average annual rate of 2.35%, and its growth has been
mainly due to technological advances since agriculture and improved technical efficiency; (2)
Differences in agricultural green TFP growth rates and growth drivers across subregions; (3)
Most cities have achieved positive growth in agricultural green TFP, and agricultural
technological progress and innovation have played a greater role in boosting agricultural green
TFP. Based on the conclusions of the study, it is proposed to promote the growth of agriculture
green TFP in from the perspectives of promoting the output of green technology in agriculture,
constructing a balanced pattern of agricultural development in various regions, and combining
their functional advantages in accordance with local conditions.
