Temporal and spatial evolution characteristics and decoupling trend of Chinese agricultural carbon emission efficiency.

ABSTRACT: This study investigates the spatio-temporal evolution of agricultural carbon emission efficiency (ACEE) in China and its relationship with agricultural economic growth (AEG). The results indicate several findings: Firstly, between 2012 and 2021, China's agricultural carbon emission efficiency exhibited an upward trend, with the mean value increased from 0.349 to 0.807. Furthermore, the distribution pattern shifted from a dispersed, point-like distribution to an aggregated and continuous distribution. Secondly, the average agricultural carbon emission efficiency in China following a decreasing order: South China, Northwest China, Southwest China, East China, North China, Central China and Northeast China. Thirdly, the relationship between agricultural carbon emission efficiency and the agri
