ABSTRACT: Value
co-creation is an important driving force for rural spatial construction and
agricultural transformation and improvement, as well as an important means of
establishing sustainable livelihoods in rural areas. The spatial production based on the interaction between
production processes and geographical space in sociological theory
promotes the construction of physical, social, and cultural fields and enhances
the innovation capacity of rural spatial production. This article takes
Xiaozhou Village in Guangzhou as an example and uses observation to study the
value co-creation process of different types of fields. Value co-creation is
the driving force for promoting agricultural production, social activities,
folk revitalization, homestay leisure, and other leisure experience activities
in the physical, social, and cultural fields, and
has become an important support for the sustainable livelihood of Xiaozhou
Village. The digitization of the field helps to promote the diversification of
rural physical, social, and cultural spaces, and opens a path for rural
construction in the new era.
