Abstract

To clarify the intrinsic relationship between land transfer and new agricultural productive forces and explore its impact mechanisms, this study utilizes panel data from 30 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in China from 2005 to 2023, employing threshold effects and dynamic SDM models to investigate their interplay. The findings reveal: (1) A significant positive correlation exists between land transfer and new agricultural productive forces. (2) Land transfer primarily promotes the development of new agricultural productive forces by enhancing land resource allocation efficiency. (3) Green technology innovation significantly moderates the relationship between land transfer and new agricultural productive forces. (4) The impact of land transfer on new agricultural productive forces exhibits nonlinear characteristics. (5) The effects of land transfer on new agricultural productive forces demonstrate regional heterogeneity. (6) Compared to long-term spatial effects, land transfer's short-term spatial spillover effects are more pronounced.
