规模、服务质量风险与农户植保机械作业外包——以新疆玛河流域为例

Operation scales, service quality risks and farmer’s outsourcing for pest control machinery: A case study of the Manas River Basin of Xinjiang

  • 摘要: 发展植保专业服务组织、加快新型植保机械推广是我国提高农药利用率、实现农药减量的政策取向。基于农户行为理论,以新疆玛纳斯河流域为例,利用320户抽样调查数据,采用二元Probit回归模型,分析农户植保机械作业外包决策行为,探讨规模和服务质量风险对外包决策的影响因素。结果表明,喷杆喷雾机是样本地区最主要的植保工具类型,农户主要通过作业外包来使用喷杆喷雾机等大中型植保机械。植保机械作业外包减少了玉米和棉花生产的农药投入量。农户购买植保机械外包服务的决策受土地经营规模的影响呈倒U型趋势,经营规模介于2~10 hm2的农户进行外包的概率最大,超过60%。地块规模、相邻地块统一灌溉、男性和非农劳动力比例对农户购买机械外包服务有显著的正向影响,农业技能培训对机械外包需求有显著的负向影响。考虑到植保外包作业具有质量监督难、质量风险大的特性,模型也纳入了农户风险态度、农业保险等变量,但影响均不显著。因此,提出补贴大中型植保机械促进外包市场发展,结合区域规模经营发展状况适时推广专业化外包服务,结合病虫害统防统治适当组织农户间的联合外包,创新外包服务供给体系,制定服务标准、监督服务质量等政策建议。

     

    Abstract: Developing pest control professional service organizations and accelerating the promotion of new pest control machinery are China’s policy orientations to improve pesticide utilization rate and to achieve pesticide reduction. Based on the farmer behavior theory and a sample survey data of 320 farmers in the Manas River Basin of Xinjiang, this paper applied a Probit model to analyze farmers’ decision-making behaviors on outsourcing for pest control machinery and the influencing factors. Results show that the sprayer is the most important type of pest control tool in the sample area and farmers mainly use large and medium-sized pest control machinery such as sprayer through outsourcing services. The outsourcing of pest control machinery has reduced the amount of pesticide applications on corn and cotton production. The decision of farmers’ outsourcing services of pest control machinery is influenced by operation scale with a U-shaped trend. Farmers have the highest probability of outsourcing when their land scale ranging from 2 hm2 to 10 hm2, exceeding 50%. Plot scale, unified irrigation of adjacent plots, male number and non-agricultural labor force ratio have significant positive impacts on farmers’ outsourcing services. Agricultural technical training has significant negative impacts on the demand for outsourcing services. Considering that the quality of outsourcing is difficult to monitor and has high quality risk, the model also includes variables such as risk attitude and agricultural insurance, but the impacts are not significant. In summary, this paper suggests to subsidize those large and medium-sized pest control machinery operations to promote the development of the outsourcing market, to promote professional outsourcing services in a timely manner in accordance with the development status of regional scale operations, and to appropriately organize joint outsourcing operations among farmers combined with the control of pest systematically, innovative outsourcing service supply system, standardized services, and improved monitoring system.
