How Does Agro-Tourism Integration Influence the Rebound Effect of China’s Agricultural Eco-Efficiency? An Economic Development Perspective

Agro-tourism integration is a breakthrough to flourish rural industries and fulfill revitalization. Also, agricultural eco-efficiency agro-tourism are closely linked, so investigating the relationship between two significant for realizing high-quality agro-ecological development in China. However, existing studies have ignored impact of on eco-efficiency. For this purpose, using dataset 30 provincial administrative regions China from 2001 2019, paper employs Entropy weight approach super efficient Slack-Based Measure (SBM`) measure level eco-efficiency, respectively. The system Generalized Method Moments (SYS-GMM) applied investigate effect statistical results reveal that significantly contributes which remains valid after robustness checks executed. There also path-dependence integration. Finally, eastern region, while it inhibits central-western region. Our findings suggest policymakers not only reinforced deep agriculture tourism stimulate overall revitalization, but formulated policies differentiated green manner contribute growth.
