Studyon Low-carbon Production Behaviorand Influencing Factors Of Farmersin Heze City

With the continuous intensification of the global greenhouse effect,developing a low-carbon economy has become a focus of attention for countries around the world.In a low-carbon economic environment,the demand for greenhouse gas emissions reduction is becoming increasingly strong.As the foundation of China’s national economy,agriculture has become an important choice to vigorously promote its low-carbon development.Heze City is an important agricultural city in Shandong Province and an important production base for commodity grains and vegetables nationwide.Agriculture plays an important role in economic development and is also the foundation for the development of other industries.Therefore,agricultural production in Heze City needs to continuously transform its development ideas,implement the concept of low-carbon development,and gradually transition to low-carbon agriculture.As the practice and promotion subject of low-carbon agriculture development,farmers’ low-carbon production behavior is of great significance for reducing carbon emissions and promoting the development of low-carbon agriculture.This article uses macro data to analyze the natural resources,socio-economic development level,and agricultural production conditions of Heze City,in order to understand the current situation of low-carbon agriculture development in Heze City.Through on-site research,obtain realistic data on farmers’ low-carbon production behavior and conduct descriptive statistical analysis.Using a binary logistic model,280 survey data were empirically analyzed using rational application of pesticides,fertilizers,straw resource utilization,and agricultural film recycling as dependent variables.The independent variables were selected based on the individual characteristics of farmers and five major categories of livelihood capital.The results show that the gender and education level of farmers have a significant positive impact on farmers’ low-carbon production behavior,the annual income of households in natural capital,social capital and financial capital has a significant positive impact on farmers’ low-carbon production behavior,and the ownership of loans in physical capital and financial capital has a significant negative impact on farmers’ low-carbon production behavior.Based on the analysis results,propose countermeasures and suggestions to improve farmers’ low-carbon production behavior: increase farmers’ awareness of low-carbon agriculture and build a low-carbon production social network;Improve laws related to low-carbon agriculture and establish a low-carbon agricultural ecological compensation mechanism;Strengthening innovation in low-carbon agricultural technology and promoting low-carbon agricultural production technology;Financial support for low-carbon agricultural production among farmers and strengthening the closeness between farmers and the market.
