The impact of agricultural support and protection subsidy policy on grain production efficiency: A case study of China.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Based on panel data from 31 Chinese provinces from 2012 to 2022, this study employs a difference-in-difference method to assess the impact of the agricultural support and protection subsidy (ASPS) policy on grain production efficiency. The results indicate that the ASPS policy has a significant positive impact on grain production efficiency, and the results remain robust through multiple robustness tests. Furthermore, heterogeneity analysis reveals that the policy's impact varies substantially across different regions and types of grain crops. Mechanism analysis further demonstrates that the ASPS policy enhance grain production efficiency by improving the grain cultivation areas and productive inputs. Consequently, we propose targeted policy recommendations, including enhancing the intensity and precision of subsidies, implementing differentiated subsidy approaches, and utilizing subsidies to stimulate dual efficiencies in both scale and investment.
