A Study On The Coupled And Coordinated Development Of Digital Inclusive Finance And Rural Industrial Integration In Sichuan Province

The integrated development of rural industries is an important way to realize the modernization of agriculture and rural areas and comprehensively promote the rural revitalization strategy,which is of great significance to the development of China’s economy and society.Digital inclusive finance can break the restrictions of time and geography,lower the service threshold,provide financial services for all social strata and promote financial innovation.In recent years,China has attached great importance to the integration of rural industries and digital inclusive finance,and promulgated a series of policies to support their development.The upgrading of the agricultural industry structure paired with the blood-making function of digital inclusive finance can provide new momentum for the development of poor rural areas.Sichuan Province,a large agricultural province in the western region of China,has achieved good results in the development of both.Based on this,this paper will take Sichuan province as the research object to explore the coordinated development relationship between digital inclusive finance and rural industrial integration.This paper firstly outlined the relevant theories and summarized the mechanism of the role of digital inclusive finance and rural industrial integration,which provided the theoretical basis for the empirical research in the later paper.Secondly,it analyzed the development status of digital inclusive finance and rural industrial integration in Sichuan Province,taking into account the actual situation.Once again,from the basic concepts of digital inclusive finance and rural industrial integration,we constructed a comprehensive evaluation index system for both from multiple dimensions and measured the comprehensive development index of digital inclusive finance and rural industrial integration in each prefecture-level city of Sichuan Province from 2011 to 2020.Finally,the coupling coordination level of the two systems was analyzed in two dimensions,time and space,using the coupling coordination degree model.The results showed that: the comprehensive development levels of digital inclusive finance and rural industrial integration in Sichuan Province had all increased in different magnitudes during the study period,with digital inclusive finance developing faster;there was a dynamic relationship between digital inclusive finance and rural industrial integration in Sichuan Province that was interrelated and mutually reinforcing;the coupled and coordinated development levels of digital inclusive finance and rural industrial integration in each prefecture-level city in Sichuan Province had been increasing and There exists regional differentiation,and the insufficient level of system development was the main factor limiting coupling and coordination.Finally,relevant suggestions were put forward in terms of strengthening financial quality education in rural areas,improving the level of digital inclusive finance AI,and increasing the support for digital inclusive finance and rural industrial integration.
