Abstract

In logistics industry of 12 provinces along China's new western land-sea corridor from 2010 to 2019, this research employed three-stage SBM model that considers undesirable output to measure logistics industrial efficiency and the panel Tobit model to investigate variables impacting logistics efficiency. The study found that after controlling for environmental variables and statistical noise, the logistics industrial efficiency in China's new western land-sea corridor has improved, and the logistics sector efficiency of each province has spatial variability. Generally speaking, the south part goes up and the north part goes down; industrial structure, logistics transportation intensity, and economic development have a favorable influence on logistics sector efficiency. The urbanization rate, government support level, level of infrastructure, and degree of openness all have a negative influence on efficiency. Finally, relevant policy considerations such as logistics transport intensity, pure technical efficiency, scale efficiency, and external environment are proposed.
