为研究进出口贸易对城乡融合发展的影响，在分析其影响机制的基础上，以长江经济带11省(市)为例，基于2008—2023年的面板数据，利用熵值法测算出该区域的城乡融合水平，并建立双向固定效应模型，实证分析两者的相关性。研究发现：(1)进出口贸易在促进城乡融合发展方面具有显著优势，在经过稳健性检验以及内生性检验后依然稳定可靠，证实进出口贸易是推动城乡融合发展的关键动力之一；(2)异质性检验结果显示，进出口贸易能显著推进东部地区城乡融合发展，对中部地区城乡融合发展存在阻碍作用，对西部地区城乡融合发展的驱动效应不足；(3)机制分析结果表明，进出口贸易可以通过缩小城乡收入差距、促进劳动力转移、加强交通基础设施建设以及提高环境保护效益这四种方式来推动城乡融合发展。为此，政府应进一步完善具有差异化的城乡融合发展策略，通过加强政策导向、提升农村基础设施水平以及推动形成进出口贸易新业态等措施，进一步提升城乡融合发展水平。

To study the impact of import and export trade on urban-rural integration development, taking 11 provinces(municipalities) in the Yangtze River Economic Belt as an example, this article analyzes the impact mechanism, uses panel data from 2008 to 2023, calculates the level of urban-rural integration in the region by entropy method, establishes a two-way fixed effects model, and finally empirically analyzes the correlation between the two. The results show that:(1)International trade has a significant advantage in promoting the development of urban-rural integration development, and remains stable and reliable after the robustness tests as well as the endogeneity tests, indicating that international trade is one of the key driving forces for urban-rural integration development;(2) Heterogeneity analysis shows that the international trade significantly promotes urban-rural integration in the eastern region, the hindering effect on urban-rural integration in the central region is significant, and the driving effect of international trade on urban-rural integration in the western region is insufficient;(3) In the result of mechanism analysis, international trade can boost the urban-rural integration through promoting labor transfer and transportation infrastructure. To this end, the government should further improve the differentiated urban-rural integration development strategy, enhance the level of development, and take measures such as strengthening policy guidance, improving rural infrastructure, and promoting the formation of new import and export trade patterns.
