As the process of agricultural modernization progresses, county economies, which serve as vital units in regional economic development, are encountering unprecedented challenges and opportunities. The emergence of new agricultural business entities has introduced a novel source of momentum for the sustainable development of county economies. This paper examines the role of these new entities in driving sustainable economic development at the county level, identifies the challenges they face, and outlines practical pathways for addressing them. By addressing issues such as optimizing resource allocation, enhancing talent development, improving institutional frameworks, and fostering industrial integration, the paper explores strategies to promote the sustainable development of county economies. This study aims to offer valuable insights for other countries striving to advance agricultural modernization.
