Abstract

Encouraging rural households to increase their own financial investment in agriculture is necessary for agricultural productivity. Digital inclusive finance can help rural households access financial resources and increase productive investments. This paper employs data from the CHFS to conduct an empirical analysis. The findings indicate that digital inclusive finance significantly enhances rural household productive investment. The expansion of rural household social networks and the improvement of financial literacy both have a positive influence on this effect. Based on these conclusions, this paper suggests increasing support for rural digital inclusive finance as a means to enhance rural household productive investment.
