Abstract: Based on the panel data of thirty provinces （cities,municipalities） from 2013 to 2018, the entropy weight method was used to measure the high-quality development level of rural economy, and the Dagum Gini coefficient was used to analyze the regional differences. The results showed that the high-quality development level of rural economy in China was generally not high. In the time dimension, the level of high-quality development of rural economy was constantly improving, and the momentum of development was positive. In the space dimension, the high-quality development level of rural economy of the four regions from high to low was the eastern, northeastern, central and western regions, and the source of the gap was mainly regional differences. To promote the high-quality development of rural economy, the promotion paths of improving the innovation ability of backward areas, breaking the barriers to the flow of urban and rural factors layer by layer, adhering to green development as the base, optimizing the economic structure of developed areas, and comprehensively improving the rural social security system were put forward.

Key words: rural economy, high-quality development, entropy weight method, Dagum Gini coefficient
