Promoting the green development of agriculture is of great significance to realize agricultural and rural modernization in China. Based on the existing research, this paper innovatively explores the dynamic and spatial effects of agricultural green development in the eight newly zoned regions of China's economy. Based on the panel data of 30 provinces in China from 2013 to 2022, this paper selects 20 indicators to measure the level of agricultural green development from five dimensions such as ecological protection, resource conservation, environment-friendly, green supply and economic growth by entropy weight method and uses non-parametric estimation method to analyze the dynamic evolution trend of agricultural green development in the whole country and its eight economic regions. Then, a spatial econometric model is constructed to further explore the influence mechanism and spatial spillover effect of each influencing factor on agricultural green development. The findings demonstrate that the level of agricultural green development in 30 provinces of China continuously improved during the study period, but the dynamic evolution trend characteristics in the whole country and its eight economic regions are not the same. Specifically, the development differences between the whole country, the northeast region, the eastern coast, the southern coast and the northwest region increased, while that between the northern coast, the Yellow River basin and the middle reaches of the Yangtze River first increased and then decreased, and that in the southwestern region gradually narrowed. There is a significant spatial spillover effect on agricultural green development and its influencing factors. Moreover, there is heterogeneity in the influence characteristics and spatial spillover effects of various influencing factors on agricultural green development among the eight economic regions. Therefore, it is proposed that eight economic regions in China should formulate differentiated development strategies, focus on educational and technological innovation etc., and further promote agricultural green development.
