Using the panel data of 31 provinces in China between 2000 and 2018, this study theoretically and empirically analyses the impact of environmental regulations on the adjustment of the agriculture industrial structure from the perspectives of rationalisation and optimisation. Overall, variability in the impact of environmental regulation on the adjustment of the agricultural industrial structure is identified: a negative influence on the rationalisation of agricultural industrial structure and a positive influence on the optimisation of agricultural industrial structure. The impact of environmental regulations on the adjustment of agricultural industrial structure also reflects "large country characteristics": environmental regulations are more significant at the medium and low industrial structure levels. Environmental regulation significantly impacts the rationalisation of agricultural industrial structure in central and western regions and its optimisation in eastern and central regions. Through the panel threshold model test, this paper further finds that the effect of environmental regulations on the adjustment of agricultural industrial structure is not invariant. However, there is a non-linear relationship with significant threshold characteristics. Based on the above results, some countermeasures are suggested.
利用 2000 年至 2018 年中国 31 个省份的面板数据，从合理化和优化两个方面，从理论和实证两个角度分析了环境规制对农业产业结构调整的影响。总体来看，环境规制对农业产业结构调整的影响存在异质性：环境规制对农业产业结构合理化具有负向影响，对农业产业结构优化具有正向影响。环境规制对农业产业结构调整的影响也体现了“大国特征”：环境规制在中低产业结构水平上的作用更为显著。环境规制对中西部地区农业产业结构合理化，以及对东部和中部地区农业产业结构优化的影响较为显著。通过面板门限模型检验，本文进一步发现，环境规制对农业产业结构调整的影响并非一成不变，而是具有显著的门限特征的非线性关系。基于以上结果，提出了一些对策建议。
