Digital construction has presented an opportunity for the transformation of agricultural productivity. Based on the panel data of 30 Chinese provinces from 2011 to 2020, this study systematically explores the impact and mechanisms of agricultural digitalization on agricultural green total - factor productivity (AGTFP), incorporating the mediating effect of supply resilience into the theoretical framework. The research reveals that regions with advanced digitalization are approaching the exhaustion of marginal dividends, while those with underdeveloped digitalization are on the verge of a growth spurt. It deconstructs the potential factors in rural digitalization that drive productivity growth, which can assist local governments in deriving policy - making basis, discerning the future potential of agricultural digitalization and productivity development from multiple perspectives, and promoting the high - quality development of China's agriculture in a targeted manner.
