A study on the relationship between high-quality development of the logistics industry and rural revitalization across different levels of industrial structure

Due to regional differences in industrial structure levels, the development of the logistics industry in rural areas faces various challenges and opportunities. The objective is to explore how the high-quality development of the logistics industry influences rural revitalization at various tiers of industrial structure. It employs a benchmark regression model to dissect the influence that the logistics industry's high-quality development exerts on fostering rural revitalization. Moreover, a panel threshold model is employed to examines this impact across different levels of industrial structure. It demonstrates that enhancing the logistics industry significantly supports rural revitalization, with its impact varying across different levels of industrial structure. Hence, it is imperative to develop customized strategies for the logistics industry that account for the varying industrial structure in rural areas. It emphasizes the logistics industry's role in facilitating rural growth and recommends adopting tailored development strategies corresponding to the industrial structure's evolution to boost rural revitalization. Despite valuable insights, this study has limitations in reflecting regional trends and exploring other factors beyond the direct impact of logistics on rural revitalization, pointing to potential avenues for future research.
