Abstract
This study focuses on resource optimization and organizational innovation within agricultural enterprises operating under dynamic market conditions. It employs a mixed-methods research approach to conduct in-depth investigations of 41 different types of agricultural enterprises. The research systematically analyzs resource allocation patterns, organizational innovation practices, and their interaction mechanisms in dynamic market environments. The research reveals significant efficiency differences and structural problems in land, human resources, and capital allocation among traditional agricultural enterprises, with large enterprises demonstrating substantially higher Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) efficiency values (0.782) compared to small enterprises (0.536), where low proportions of technical personnel and singular financing structures constitute the primary factors constraining resource allocation optimization. Modern agricultural enterprises have achieved a transformation from experience-driven to data-driven approaches through technology-driven organizational changes, with smart agriculture technology application rates reaching 78.3% and decision-making efficiency improving by 35%. Industrial integration has created new development opportunities for agricultural enterprises, with agri-tourism integrated enterprises generating 42.6% of total revenue from integrated business operations, demonstrating outstanding performance in service standardization and customer satisfaction by leveraging international hotel management practices. The research conclusions provide important theoretical foundations and practical guidance for agricultural enterprises aiming for sustainable development in dynamic market conditions, offering valuable policy insights for promoting agricultural modernization and rural revitalization.
