- How to evaluate high-quality agricultural development?
- This study uses the mathematical model to evaluate the high-quality agricultural development from the aspects of spatio-temporal characteristics, obstacle factors and quadrant distribution, which can deepen the study of agricultural development and provide reference for agricultural management departments to make decisions.
- How to measure high quality development level of Agriculture?
- From the perspective of research methods, the entropy weight method, fuzzy hierarchy comprehensive evaluation and other methods in previous literature are used to measure the high quality development level of agriculture, see e.g. Xin and An (2019), Zhang and Liu (2019), Qin (2020), Li and Xu (2020), Huang et al. (2020), Liu et al (2020).

- What are the characteristics of high-quality agricultural development in China?
- For example, guided by the new development concept, Ji (2021) , using the AHP–entropy method, found that China’s high-quality agricultural development presents a distribution characteristic of high in the east and low in the west.
- Is high-quality agricultural development still inadequate?
- We believe that this study, while referring primarily to the Chinese experience, is a valuable voice in the discussion on the measurement and evaluation of high-quality agricultural development, which number is still inadequate. The technology roadmap of the paper is shown in the Fig. 1, and the remainder of the paper is organized as follows.
- Are Hunan and Anhui a good city for agricultural development?
