Abstract

Under the backdrop of climate risks, the accelerated digital transformation of agricultural enterprises is of great significance for the sustainable development of China's agriculture. To explore the impact of climate risk on the digital transformation of agricultural enterprises, this study employs a double fixed-effects model to conduct an empirical test based on the micro-data of A-share agricultural enterprises from 2007 to 2022. The results show that climate risk exerts a forcing effect on the digital transformation of agricultural enterprises. The mechanism test indicates that climate risk enhances the environmental attention of executives, thereby promoting the digital transformation of agricultural enterprises. The threshold effect test shows that the forcing effect of climate risk on digital transformation exhibits a single threshold effect. When organizational inertia, governance capacity, and government subsidies reach a certain threshold, the forcing effect changes significantly. The heterogeneity analysis shows that climate risk significantly forces digital transformation of agricultural enterprises with different ownership and governance structures. The forcing effect is stronger for non-state-owned enterprises and those with a unified position of chairman and general manager. However, in terms of regional distribution, the intensification of climate risks only exerts a forcing effect on the digital transformation of agriculture-related enterprises in the eastern region of China.

Key words： climate risks; agribusinesses; digital transformation
