Development strategy of rural revitalization driven by digital fusion technology in the information age

Abstract

As society develops and the economy changes, the traditional methods of driving rural revitalization do not adapt well to the growth needs of the times. Digital fusion technology has provided new development paths and opportunities for rural revitalization. This paper first introduced the background and characteristics of digital fusion technology, the current situation and problems of rural revitalization, and the application cases of digital fusion technology in rural revitalization. The study explored the role of digital fusion technology in rural revitalization through four key aspects: development planning, infrastructure, agricultural integration, and talent support. By comparing M Village, which adopted traditional rural revitalization, with N Village, which utilized digital fusion technology, it was found that N Village outperformed in economic growth, with faster and higher annual increases in economic value. Additionally, N Village demonstrated superior social, environmental, and farmers’ benefits, including higher employment rates, better education and healthcare coverage, improved resource utilization, and a significantly higher average per capita disposable income. The above findings indicate that the research on the development strategy of choosing digital fusion technology to drive rural revitalization in the information age is valuable.
