Land Degradation and Its Economic Impacts on Agriculture and Forestry: Exploring IoT‐Based Mitigation Strategies

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Land degradation threatens agricultural and forestry economies by lowering productivity, raising input costs, and increasing risk. This study examines whether Internet of Things applications moderate these losses in 1321 mainland Chinese counties from 2011 to 2024. Land degradation is measured separately through vegetation trends, modeled soil
