Agricultural extension, as an important part of modern agriculture, can promote the scientific transformation of the traditional agricultural production model. This paper analysed the impact of university agricultural technology extension on efficient and sustainable agriculture using difference-in-differences model (DID). The results showed that university agricultural technology extension plays a facilitating role by influencing the coordinated development and green development dimensions in efficient and sustainable agriculture; there is a moderating effect of modern agricultural industrial parked in university agricultural technology extension and efficient and sustainable agriculture; there are significant differences in the impact of university agricultural technology extension on efficient and sustainable agriculture across regions and different levels of development. The findings have important implications for evaluating the effectiveness of current university agricultural extension policies and how to further promote university agricultural extension. The study also established an evaluation index system for efficient and sustainable agriculture, explored the mechanism of university agricultural extension in promoting efficient and sustainable agriculture, and enriched relevant theoretical research.
农业推广作为现代农业的重要组成部分，能够推动传统农业生产模式的科学转型。本文运用双重差分模型（DID）分析了高校农业技术推广对高效可持续农业的影响。结果表明，高校农业技术推广通过影响高效可持续农业中的协调发展和绿色发展维度发挥促进作用；现代农业产业园区在高校农业技术推广与高效可持续农业之间存在调节效应；高校农业技术推广对高效可持续农业的影响在不同地区和不同发展水平上存在显著差异。研究结果对于评估当前高校农业推广政策的有效性以及如何进一步推动高校农业推广具有重要意义。该研究还建立了高效可持续农业评价指标体系，探索了高校农业推广促进高效可持续农业的机制，丰富了相关理论研究。
