Climate change poses constraints on nature‐based agricultural productivity, necessitating an understanding of urban agriculture's performance across varying climatic conditions. This study examines the impacts of temperature, precipitation, and evapotranspiration production potential on agricultural production efficiency using a pooled OLS model. The results show that there is a spatial pattern of alternating high and low agricultural production efficiency units, and in urban areas where agricultural production efficiency values hover around 0.5, there still exists significant potential for improvement. Through regression analysis, results show that the production potential of precipitation has a significantly positive impact on improving agricultural production efficiency. However, the effects of temperature production potential, evapotranspiration production potential, and insolation on agricultural production efficiency are either not significant or exhibit poor stability. The results of the heterogeneity test show that the effect of precipitation production potential on enhancing agricultural production efficiency varies between cities in northeastern and southwestern Zhejiang, with only a few cities experiencing significant benefits. Furthermore, the innovation of this study resides in its comprehensive application of management science, climatology, geography, and other interdisciplinary approaches to deeply explore the influences of different climatic resource endowments on agricultural production efficiency from a spatial perspective. This interdisciplinary research approach provides fresh insights into how urban agriculture can be optimized under complex and ever‐changing climatic conditions.

Improving the efficiency of agricultural production in infertile areas contributes to reducing hunger, ensuring food security, and promoting eco-economic development. This study examines the effects and mechanisms of the Yellow River Delta High Efficiency Ecological Economic Zone policy on agricultural total factor productivity. The data from prefecture-level cities and a difference-in-difference model were used, and descriptive statistics and multiple regression analysis were conducted. The results show that the establishment of the zone increased agricultural total factor productivity by 40%. Heterogeneity analysis reveals that this positive effect is particularly pronounced in regions with a high proportion of agriculture and high per capita disposable income. However, this effect has diminished year by year since 2010. Mechanism tests suggest that the increase in agricultural R&D, the improvement in mechanization, and the application of ecological technologies have boosted agricultural total factor productivity. The results confirm the positive effects of the ecological economic zone policy and highlight the need for further measures to maintain and increase these positive effects in the long term. Future research should explore specific micro-management and technological measures to improve agricultural performance.
