Analyzing Technical Barriers to Green Farmhouse Construction in China: A DEMATEL-ISM-MICMAC Approach
Journal Title: Journal of Green Economy and Low-Carbon Development - Year 2024, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
The development of green farmhouse technology is crucial for advancing sustainable agricultural practices in China. However, the comprehensive promotion and effective implementation of green farmhouse construction are significantly hindered by the underdevelopment and immaturity of the required technologies. This study aims to identify and analyze the key factors that impede the development of green farmhouse technology and to elucidate the interrelationships among these factors. A systematic literature review was conducted to determine the primary barriers to green farmhouse technology development. The Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) method was employed to examine the interdependencies among these factors, providing insight into their mutual influence and centrality. Subsequently, Interpretive Structural Modeling (ISM) was applied to establish a hierarchical structure, revealing the multi-level relationships among the identified barriers. Finally, the Multiplication of Cross-Impact Matrices (MICMAC) analysis was utilized to further categorize the factors based on their driving power and dependence. The findings indicate that the development of green building materials, research and development (R&D) funding, and technological expertise are the core factors impeding the advancement of green farmhouse technology. These barriers were classified into six hierarchical levels and grouped into four categories: autonomous, dependent, linked, and independent factors. Through the combined application of DEMATEL, ISM, and MICMAC, a comprehensive understanding of the hierarchical structure and the interrelationships among these barriers was achieved. The factors were further categorized into three groups: budget and funding constraints, green farmhouse technology R&D challenges, and technology promotion and selection obstacles. The insights derived from this study provide a theoretical foundation for developing strategies to overcome these impediments, thereby facilitating the broader adoption of green farmhouse technology in China.
