Abstract: 【Objective】The relationship between the appeared agricultural industrial agglomeration zone and agricultural industry growth was studied from the empirical perspective.【Method】Using the panel data of four agricultural agglomeration areas in Anhui and the location quotient coefficients, modified CD function, the relationship between agricultural agglomeration and industry growth was verified.【Result】The results show that the agricultural agglomerations have positive effects on the industry growth, but in the selected four regions, the contribution rate of agricultural agglomeration to industry growth is close to zero value. 【Conclusion】Enhancing agricultural concentration degree will help enhance the contribution of industrial agglomeration to the industry growth, and help enhance the competitiveness of agriculture, but the contribution rate to industry growth is more reflected in the dynamic change of agglomeration degree, rather than in the size of the agglomeration degree of a given year.
