Abstract—Digital rural construction is a new paradigm of agricultural and rural development and an important way to promote rural revitalization. This paper firstly elaborates the promoting effect of digital rural construction on rural revitalization in theory. Then, this paper using the panel data of 28 provinces from 2018 to 2020 and calculates the rural revitalization index as well as the sorted digital rural index to empirically tests the effect of digital rural construction on rural revitalization and development. Research findings: (1) Digital rural construction has a significant driving effect on rural construction. (2) The heterogeneity analysis shows that the digitalization of rural economy and rural governance has a significant driving effect on rural revitalization; The construction of digital countryside in the eastern region and the northeast region has an obvious promoting effect on the rural revitalization, while the central and western regions have not shown the due driving effect. This situation indicates that there is an obvious digital gap in the current construction of digital countryside. Next, promoting rural revitalization should focus on developing the digitalized agricultural economy and rural governance, and narrowing the digital divide.

Keywords—rural revitalization, digital rural construction, digitalization of rural economy, digitalization of rural governance
