【摘要】To assess the efffciency of high-standard farmland construction (HSFC), this study utilized data spanning from  1998 to 2020 obtained from 30 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities in China. This assessment was  conducted using a three-stage super-efffcient slack-based measure data envelopment analysis(SBM-DEA)model.  Furthermore, we investigated the spatial and temporal variances and convergence of HSFC efffciency using the  Dagum Gini coefffcient and convergence analysis. The results ffrstly show that from 2007 to 2020, China’s HSFC  efffciency displayed ffuctuations and declines, signiffcantly inffuenced by environmental and stochastic factors.  Secondly, it showed that the gap in China’s HSFC efffciency has widened, with super-variable density being  demonstrated as the primary source of spatial imbalance in HSFC efffciency. Thirdly, it showed that the deviation  in the efffciency of HSFC in the central region of China from the average level has shown a gradually declining  trend, while the deviation in the efffciency of HSFC in the national, western, eastern, and northeastern regions  has not presented a downward trend. Fourthly, it demonstrated that over time, the efffciency of building highstandard  agriculture throughout the nation and its four main areas will converge to the same level.
