Listed agriculture-related enterprises are one of the main bodies promoting agricultural scientific ad technology innovation, while improving its scientific and technological innovation efficiency is affected by multiple factors. Thus, this paper takes 46 listed agriculture-related enterprises in China from 2018 to 2020 as the research object, uses the DEA-Malmquist model to measure their total factor productivity of scientific and technological innovation, and then uses the fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) method to explore its main factor combination and the development path of their scientific and technological innovation efficiency.

As the main force of innovation, the scarcity of original achievements in firms has become a bottleneck that restricts the development of China’s innovation‐driven growth. The conventional static perspective ignores the dynamic characteristics of thd rhythm of government subsidies，leading to significant biases in evaluating government subsidies standardization’s impact on firms’ ambidextrous innovation (exploitative and exploratory).
