“…The study suggested that digitalization encourages the use of internet and IoT to decouple environmental pollution and sustainable development. Lee et al [ 18 ] also reported the positive influence of digitalization on green growth in China. While, Li et al (2022) demonstrated that SMEs development is positively related to the sustainable development of their host country's performance.…”

“…From the perspective of factor substitution, Lee, He, and Yuan (2023) argue that digital technology applications can partially replace traditional production factors such as capital, labor, and energy, reduce resource consumption and pollution emissions in the production process, and ultimately enhance green total factor productivity. Yami et al (2021) also suggest that digital transformation can contribute to upgrading the human capital structure through technological substitution effects.…”

In a highly informative society, digital transformation has become a new driving force to enhance enterprise competitiveness and promote high‐quality economic development. This paper examines the impact of digital transformation on firms' resource allocation efficiency using a sample of Chinese A‐share listed companies in the manufacturing industry from 2007 to 2019. The research findings are as follows: The digital transformation has significantly improved enterprise resource allocation efficiency. Mechanisms suggest that digital transformation enhances resource allocation efficiency by attracting external financing, both equity and debt financing. Furthermore, the contribution of digital transformation to enterprise resource allocation efficiency is more pronounced in the eastern region, high‐tech industries, and non‐state‐owned enterprises. This paper provides new evidence for exploring effective paths to improve resource allocation efficiency from the digital transformation perspective. It is significant for accelerating enterprise digital transformation and achieving cost reduction and efficiency enhancement.

The agricultural sector holds paramount implications in the economies of BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) countries. Nevertheless, the escalating effect of climate change shows a significant and alarming threat to the actual environmental conditions required to sustain agricultural production. This study examines the potential contribution of demographic dividends, digitalization, and energy intensity in facilitating the attainment of environmental sustainability and agricultural productivity by BRICS economies from 1996 to 2020. The study first tested cross‐sectional dependence, then unit roots, cointegration, and long‐run elasticities using suitable econometric approaches to explore possible links between the study variables. The empirical results from the long‐run estimators stated that digitalization improves agricultural production and the environment; contrarily, demographic dividend and energy intensity contribute to environmental degradation. Furthermore, the long‐term improvement of agricultural production is supported by demographic dividend, GDP per capita, energy intensity, and digitalization. Also, the study reached a broad inference emphasizing bidirectional causal associations between demographic dividend, energy intensity, GDP per capita, the environment, and agricultural production. In conclusion, the study has identified robust policy options for BRICS economies that can serve as valuable guidance for policymakers in making informed decisions and implementing effective practices.
