Abstract: This study analyzed the effects of technical training and digital platforms on farmers’ green control technologies adoption behaviors. The results showed that (1) the effects of classroom-based, field-based technical training methods and digital platforms were significantly positive; (2) the interaction variable between digital platforms and classroom-based training had a significant positive effect on farmers' adoption behavior, and the combination of the two have a scale effect on promoting the desired behavior; (3) large-scale households were significantly affected by single technology training, whereas small-scale farmers were more susceptible to a combination of technology training and the promotion of digital platforms.
