His research contributions extended to the Hunan Provincial Natural Science Foundation’s general project, 2023JJ30312, focusing on the mechanism and performance of digital technology in empowering farmland water conservancy facilities. Moreover, he was involved in writing for a project under the Hunan Provincial Development and Reform Commission that researched coordinated food and ecological security in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River plain, considering “resources-factors-policies.”

Personal honor

He achieved notable recognition in various academic competitions and forums. At the 2021 Modern Agricultural Development Forum and the First “World Agriculture” Workshop in the context of “Dual Cycles,” he won the second prize in the paper competition. His research excellence continued into the following year when he won the first prize for outstanding paper at the 2022 Hunan Rural Economics Association Annual Meeting. Additionally, he received the award for the second “Economic Management Quantitative Research Methods” Excellent Paper at the School of Economics, Hunan Agricultural University. He also actively participated in advanced training sessions, including the “Jiangsu Province Applied Economic Research Methodology” workshop organized by the Economics Graduate Education Steering Committee of Jiangsu Province and the School of Economics and Management of Nanjing Agricultural University, where he earned the title of qualified student.
