摘要：

In this article, we investigate the impact of e-commerce on rural agriculture using county-level data of China from 2000 to 2020 and a quasi-natural experiment called the "Comprehensive E-Commerce Demonstration Policy in Rural Areas" launched in 2014. The results indicate that e-commerce considerably increased the agricultural output value while lowering grain production. Mechanism tests reveal that e-commerce promoted a shift towards higher value-added agricultural products, as well as decreasing rural employment and land areas. Furthermore, e-commerce had a greater impact on non-staple grain-producing regions and areas with higher education levels. Our study provides useful suggestions for policymakers in the development of rural e-commerce.
