Research on the Effect of Industrial Structure Upgrading on Poverty Reduction—Grouped Data Based on Household Income in Urban and Rural Areas

摘要

This paper selected the household income grouping data of China’s urbanand rural areas, respectively, calculated the urban and rural poverty lines with the ELES method,calculated the FGT index with the POVCAL software of the world bank, andconstructed the VAR model to make an empirical analysis of the mechanismbetween industrial structure upgrading and the effect of urban and ruralpoverty reduction. The results show that the upgrading of industrial structure has asignificant effect on poverty reduction in urban areas, but has little effecton poverty reduction in rural areas. Therefore, in the process of formulatingand implementing poverty reduction policies in China in the future, we shouldpay attention to the differences between towns and rural areas and constantlyimprove the national poverty reduction governance system.
