Abstract:

Based on the panel data of Heilongjiang Province from 2012 to 2021, the entropy method was used to measure the level of agricultural socialized services, and the data envelopment analysis (DEA)-Malmquist index model was used to measure the agricultural total factor productivity. Furthermore, the grey correlation degree was used to explore the degree of correlation between individual services in agricultural socialized services and the agricultural total factor productivity. The results indicated that the level of agricultural socialized services in Heilongjiang Province had steadily improved over the past decade, with an average annual growth rate of 14%. The average agricultural total factor productivity in Heilongjiang Province was 1.032, indicating an improvement in the level of agricultural production in Heilongjiang Province. The highest correlation between individual agricultural socialized services and agricultural total factor productivity was in production material services, while the correlation between processing, circulation, and sales services was not significant. Therefore, the government of Heilongjiang Province should increase its efforts in the construction of agricultural socialized services, optimize the level of various services, in order to better improve the agricultural total factor productivity.

Key words: agricultural socialized service, agricultural total factor productivity, Heilongjiang Province
