How to Promote Agricultural Integration Development in the Yangtze River Delta with Internal Resource Flow

As the integration development of the Yangtze River Delta area is defined as a national strategy, both the “integration” and “high level” have become the common development goals of the three provinces and one municipality within the area. Therefore, how to promote high-quality agricultural integration development with the internal resource flow within the Yangtze River Delta so as to solve the problems of large differences and imbalances in the agricultural development in this area is of great importance. Based on the policy orientation for agricultural development, the fiscal expenditure related to agriculture, the total agricultural machinery power, and the cultivated land area are selected as the three independent indicators to analyze the impact they would make on the total agricultural output. By using a multiple linear regression model, we have found that both fiscal expenditures related to agriculture and the cultivated land area will make a significantly positive impact on the total output, while the machinery power will help to improve the output value to some extent.
