Abstract
The flourishing development of digital economy (DE) in China has profoundly affected the operation mode of social industry, commerce, agriculture and other industries, and the influence of DE on rural residents’ income needs further study. Based on the panel data of 31 provinces in China from 2017 to 2020, a multiple linear regression model of DE and rural per capita disposable income (PCDI) is constructed, and the model is estimated by the two-stage least squares method. The findings show that DE can improve rural PCDI. From the perspective of the intermediary effect, DE can promote rural PCDI through reducing agricultural product output, because the development of DE broadens the income channels of planting crops and reduces the production and operation costs. From the perspective of the adjustment effect, technological innovation has a significant negative adjustment effect on the influence of DE on PCDI, which shows that although DE makes up for some shortcomings in rural areas through technological innovation, it also accelerates the loss of resources.
中国数字经济（DE）的蓬勃发展深刻影响了社会工业、商业、农业等行业的运行模式，DE对农村居民收入的影响有待进一步研究。基于2017-2020年中国31个省份的面板数据，构建了数字经济与农村居民人均可支配收入（PCDI）的多元线性回归模型，并采用两阶段最小二乘法对模型进行了估计。研究结果表明，农村居民人均可支配收入（DE）能够提高农村居民人均可支配收入（PCDI）。从中介效应的角度看，由于 DE 的发展拓宽了农作物种植的收入渠道，降低了生产经营成本，因此 DE 可以通过降低农产品产量来促进农村人均可支配收入。从调整效应来看，技术创新对 DE 对 PCDI 的影响具有显著的负向调整效应，这说明尽管 DE 通过技术创新弥补了农村地区的一些不足，但也加速了资源的流失。
