Purpose

Based on the survey data of 650 kiwi growers from Shaanxi and Sichuan provinces, this paper used multiple endogenous transformation regression models to explore the effect of the joint adoption of green production technology on farmer’s welfare. The purpose of the study is to analyze the influence of green production technology on the yield, household income and socioeconomic characteristics of Kiwi fruit growers.

Design/methodology/approach

In the context of the study, multiple endogenous transformation model (MESR) are adopted, but self-actualization tactics were adopted to deal with the instrumental variables. The empirical data has been collected via a combined hierarchical sampling and random sampling, whereas a well-structured Likert scale questionnaire was adopted as well. The empirical data has been processed with the help of STATA 15.1 version.

Findings

The study found a positive impact of adopting green production technology. Moreover, the joint adoption of green production technology by kiwi growers has significantly increased the yield, economic values of Kiwi and household income of kiwi farmers. The households with higher asset value, better land quality, weaker credit constraints, more technical training and stronger government promotion and support from local governments are the most likely to adopt pest control technology and soil management technology jointly.

Originality/value

The prime innovation of the paper is to measure the impact of technology combination adoption on farmer’s welfare is evaluated, rather than the impact of single sub technology on farmer’s’ welfare.

多种绿色生产技术联合采用对福利的影响——对陕西、四川650户猕猴桃种植户的调查

目的

本文以陕西、四川两省650户猕猴桃种植户的调查数据为基础,运用多个内生转化回归模型,探讨了联合采用绿色生产技术对农民福利的影响。本研究的目的是分析绿色生产技术对猕猴桃种植者的产量、家庭收入和社会经济特征的影响。

设计/方法/方法

在研究的背景下,采用多重内生转换模型(MESR),但采用自我实现策略来处理工具变量。实证数据是通过分层抽样和随机抽样相结合的方式收集的,同时还采用了结构良好的李克特量表问卷。经验数据已在 STATA 15.1 版本的帮助下进行处理。

发现

该研究发现了采用绿色生产技术的积极影响。此外,猕猴桃种植者联合采用绿色生产技术,大大提高了猕猴桃的产量、经济价值和猕猴桃农民的家庭收入。资产价值较高、土地质量较好、信贷约束较弱、技术培训较多、政府推动和地方政府支持较强的家庭最有可能联合采用病虫害防治技术和土壤管理技术。

原创性/价值

本文的主要创新是衡量技术组合采用对农民福利的影响,而不是单一子技术对农民福利的影响。
