Logistics industrial efficiency along China's western corridor improved, but varies by province. Factors like transport intensity boost efficiency, while urbanization and infrastructure hinder it.
Area of Science:
- Logistics and Supply Chain Management
- Regional Economics
- Environmental Economics
Background:
- The New Western Land-Sea Corridor is a key economic initiative.
- Assessing logistics efficiency is crucial for regional development.
- Understanding factors influencing efficiency is vital for policy.
Purpose of the Study:
- To measure logistics industrial efficiency in 12 provinces along China's New Western Land-Sea Corridor (2010-2019).
- To identify key factors impacting logistics efficiency within this region.
- To propose policy recommendations based on the findings.
Main Methods:
- Employed a three-stage Slack-Based Model (SBM) to measure logistics industrial efficiency, accounting for undesirable outputs.
- Utilized a panel Tobit model to analyze the determinants of logistics efficiency.
- Data spanned from 2010 to 2019 for 12 provinces.
Main Results:
- Logistics industrial efficiency in the region showed improvement over the study period.
- Significant spatial variability in efficiency was observed, with southern provinces generally improving and northern provinces declining.
- Industrial structure, logistics transport intensity, and economic development positively influenced efficiency.
- Urbanization rate, government support, infrastructure level, and openness negatively impacted efficiency.
Conclusions:
- Despite overall improvement, regional disparities in logistics efficiency persist.
- Policy interventions should consider optimizing transport intensity and addressing negative external environmental factors.
- Enhancing pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency is recommended for sustainable logistics development.
