Based on the panel data of Chinese provinces from 2012 to 2022, the effect and mechanism of the development level of digital inclusive finance on the resilience of the agricultural industry chain are empirically examined. The results show that (1) Digital inclusive finance has a significant enhancement effect on the toughness of the agricultural industry chain. (2) Digital inclusive finance can enhance the resilience of the agricultural industry chain by improving the efficiency of agricultural production. (3) The enhancement effect of digital financial inclusion on the toughness of the agricultural industry chain is significant in the east, center and west.
