Research on the International Competitiveness of Chinese Agriculture from the Perspective of Low-Carbon Economy

Abstract

As global climate change worsens, the traditional economic development model of prioritizing pollution and addressing it retrospectively can no longer meet the demands of modern society. In this context, the concept of a low-carbon economy has emerged and gained unanimous global respect as a development direction. Drawing upon Porter's Diamond Theory, this study examines the factors influencing China's agricultural competitiveness from a low-carbon economy perspective. It puts forward a series of strategic measures, including optimizing the production elements of low-carbon agriculture, fostering low-carbon awareness, devising a low-carbon agricultural development strategy, seizing opportunities presented by the low-carbon economy, and reinforcing policy support. The study aims to explore how to drive China's agriculture towards a low- carbon future amidst dwindling resources and escalating environmental pressures. This pursuit is aimed at achieving success in international low-carbon market competition while ensuring sustainability. These measures will facilitate China's agriculture in better adapting to the low-carbon economic development trend, ultimately resulting in a win-win scenario for both environmental conservation and economic prosperity.
