Abstract
Utilizing the theory of comparative advantage, this study analyzes the comparative advantages of major crops in Guizhou Province from 2018 to 2022 through the efficiency advantage index, scale efficiency index, and comprehensive advantage index. The findings indicate that, compared to the national average, rice, potatoes, rapeseed, sesame, flue-cured tobacco, and chili exhibit efficiency advantages within Guizhou Province. Additionally, the cultivation of sorghum, tubers (potatoes), rapeseed, tobacco leaves, vegetables (peppers), tea, and fruits demonstrates significant scale advantages. Overall, crops such as sorghum, potatoes, rapeseed, flue-cured tobacco, vegetables (peppers), and tea possess strong comprehensive advantages. Based on the analysis of competitiveness and actual development, this study offers recommendations for enhancing the efficient development of the planting industry in Guizhou Province, focusing on aspects such as the structure of the planting industry, the spatial arrangement of crops, the industrialization of agricultural operations, and government services.
