Abstract
Based on the panel data of 31 provinces in mainland China from 2001 to 2020, this paper empirically examines the impact of agricultural trade on agricultural carbon emissions and its mechanism. The results show that agricultural trade has a significant inhibitory effect on agricultural carbon emissions, and its effects are heterogeneous, and the effect is more obvious in the central and western regions and non-grain-producing areas than in the eastern regions and major grain-producing areas. From the perspective of mechanism, agricultural technology progress is an important channel for agricultural trade to inhibit agricultural carbon emissions, and agricultural trade can inhibit agricultural carbon emissions by promoting agricultural technology progress. Based on this, it is proposed to actively promote the liberalization of agricultural trade, strengthen the exchange of agricultural low-carbon development experience among provinces and trade between agricultural products, and strengthen the progress of agricultural technology to achieve agricultural carbon reduction.
