Unleashing green technology innovation in agribusiness: traditional environmental regulations, carbon trading, or synergies? by Wei Wang, Yanan She, Yue Peng, Yunqiang Liu

“…It was found that: (1) Although both traditional environmental regulatory tools and carbon trading provide incentive effects, the former tends to exhibit more pronounced direct effects, making it more suitable for adoption by local governments, while the latter demonstrates stronger spatial spillover effects, making it more appropriate for application in a national market context. (2) Command-and-control environmental regulatory instruments and carbon trading are complementary policy mixes, and other environmental policy mixes are to be used as appropriate in the context of the actual situation. (3) The incentive effects of environmental policies are more significant in eastern regions, non-heavily polluting, and state-owned agribusinesses, but not in the basic agricultural sector. …”
