Abstract

Recently, rural development has depended on the construction industry's success due to the high employment rate in the construction industry and its development role in the rural areas, and this phenomenon needs research focus. Hence, the current article examines the impact of the construction industry (construction industry revenue and growth) and construction policy (construction industry subsidies) on sustainable rural development in China. The study also used the control variable of gross domestic product (GDP) and industrialization. The article has collected secondary data from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and World Development Indicators (WDI) from 1991 to 2020. The article has applied the Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) test to examine stationarity and quantile autoregressive distributed lag (QARDL) model to investigate the association among variables. The results revealed that the construction industry revenue, growth, construction policy GDP, and industrialization positively link sustainable rural development in China. Thus, the findings exposed that if the country's construction industry improved, rural development also increased accordingly. This study guides the policy development authorities to develop effective policies related to improvement in the construction industry that will enhance sustainable rural development.
