• Analyzing transmission pathways like technological progress and logistics efficiency mentioned in the description.
• Investigating regional heterogeneity effects, such as differences between eastern and grain-producing areas.
• Testing policy and market openness as moderating variables in the digitalization-export quality relationship.

Strengths

• Data covers a 24-year time range from 2001 to 2024.
• Analysis is based on panel data from 34 provincial-level regions.
• Results include robustness tests and address endogeneity concerns as stated in the description.
