Abstract: The Yangtze River Economic Belt, as one of China‘s vital agricultural producing bases, impacts the performances of China’s “dual carbon” strategy by its low carbon agricultural development.To study the developing status and issues of low carbon agriculture in China’s Yangtze River Economic Belt so as to provide references for China‘s low carbon agriculture, this paper establishes an evaluation system index and uses entropy method to estimate its low carbon agricultural development in the Yangtze River Economic Belt, and applies fixed effect model to reveal the influencing factors.Low carbon agricultural development level in the Yangtze River Economic Belt shows a fluctuating rising trend from 2012 to 2021, with continuously climbing carbon index gaining a highest score among three tier 1 indicators, suggesting a good control over carbon emission from agriculture.The Yangtze River Economic Belt has gained a relatively low output index from 2012 to 2021, still in rising trend, meaning a growing agricultural producing efficiency and outputs.Its energy index gained a declining trend from 2012 to 2021, indicating that fossil energy consumption has been rising, renewable energy has been used less, leading to a negative impact on low carbon agricultural development.Among all factors impacting low carbon agricultural development in the Yangtze River Economic Belt, economic development, planting productive structure, scientific and technological innovation input, agricultural producing efficiency and urbanization play a positive role, but agricultural staffing amount plays negatively.

Key words: Yangtze River Economic Belt, low carbon agriculture, evaluation index system, entropy method, benchmark regression analysis
