Abstract

This paper selects panel data of 31 provinces and cities from 2012 to 2021 to explore the impact of digital economy on urban-rural income gap through empirical research. The results indicate that the improvement of the development level of the digital economy has a significant narrowing effect on the urban-rural income gap. The economic development level, government intervention level, and urbanization level of each province also have a significant improvement effect on the urban-rural income gap. In the future, we can gradually narrow the urban-rural income gap by promoting the Digital transformation of traditional agriculture, focusing on the training and introduction of talents in the digital economy, and integrating smart cities and digital villages.
