Abstract: Taking 445 top agricultural towns in the Yangtze River Economic Belt as research objectives, this study investigated and revealed the spatial distribution characteristics and influencing factors with multiple methods. The methodology integrated the nearest neighbor index, disequilibrium index, kernel density analysis, spatial correlation analysis, geographic detector, et al. The results show: ①The top agricultural towns in the Yangtze River Economic Belt are differences in spatial structure, showing agglomeration distribution characteristics. ②The nuclear density shows the distribution trend of dual-core, four high, and four low. ③The top agricultural towns in the Yangtze River Economic Belt have a significant positive spatial correlation. The distribution pattern of cold and hot spots discloses the junction of the upper and middle reaches-the junction of the Yangtze River Delta is hot, and the west of upper reaches-the middle and lower reaches are cold. ④The input of agricultural industry is the leading factor affecting the spatial distribution of top agricultural towns in the Yangtze River Economic Belt. The foundation of the agricultural industry is the dominant factor, the output of the agricultural industry is the direct factor, and the location of the agricultural industry is the relevant factor.

Key words: top agricultural towns, spatial distribution, influencing factors, geographic detectors, Yangtze River Economic Belt
