Safe Agricultural Production And Economic Benefits Of Research

Agri-food (edible agri-food, food) safety is globally considered as one of more noteworthy issues. The agri-food safety problem exits in not only the domestic but also the international food market while solving it scientifically and cognizing it with rational valuation. " Farm to table" is regarded as the essential concept of safe agri-food management and in particular, the origin is safe agricultural production. No safe agricultural production, no the whole agricultural products safety. No economical benefits of safe agricultural production, no systems of safe agricultural products. No agricultural producers' active attitude, no the sustained development of safe agricultural production. The agri-food safety has been caused more consideration but without academically deep research in China just in recent years. And still the development condition, economical benefits and the potential of Chinese safe agricultural production are desiderated to be studied by Chinese agricultural economics researchers. As a result, "the study of economical benefits of safe agricultural production" is the researching subject of this paper.This study is organized as follows: According to the situation in China and based on theoretical analysis of economics and behaviorism of producers, suppose safe agri-food were produced on "Three products" production base which associated with farmers are considered as basic element, while agriculture dragon enterprises associated with farmers are considered as affiliated enterprises of safe agri-food production, and both farmers and enterprises are regarded as the whole. Construct comparative analyzed statistical quantum of economical benefits on safe agri-food production in Multinomial linear regression model to analyze the economical benefits and influenced factors among farmers, enterprises and the integrate organization through systematic research design and correlative investigation. This study also empirically analyzes the probability of farmer's choice to produce safe agri-food and those influenced factors by constructing the Multinomial logit model in order to put forward political suggestions for the sustained development of safe agri-food production.This paper is made up of five parts. The first part is involved with Chapter One (Guide) and Chapter Two (Summarize of literature). This part outlines of basic theories and research in correlative fields in order to provide theoretical guidance and define the background of research. The second part consists of Chapter Three, Chapter Four and Chapter Five. This part is based on research already exists, set up the frame of research and empirical analysis, and also briefly analyzes the situation and problem about agri-food safety in China. The third part including Chapter Six and Chapter Seven, primarily analyzes the investigation data in Statistical way and shows the result of descriptive analysis about variables. The forth part is built up with ChapterEight and Chapter Nine, set up models to give empirical analysis on the integrated economical benefits and influenced factors among farmer, enterprise and safe agri-food production. Multinomial Logit Model mainly analyzes the farmer's willingness to choose about further development of safe agri-food and influenced factors as well. The fifth part according to above four parts, is the part of conclusion and also raise some questions for further research.Make a comprehensive view on the analysis and conclusion, we can mainly find four aspects about research valve of this study.(1) According to the theory, take the safe agri-food production as the research object, and put farmer and affiliated enterprise together which are both on production base of safe agri-food, then analyze the economical benefits of safe agri-food production and willingness to choose further development. From production economics seen, production system of safe agri-food is mainly involved with farmer on production base and affiliated enterprise associated with farmer, while production base and local government are also related to the system. The necessary condition to maintain and improve the system is the economical benefits of safe agri-food production, and another required condition is to find out farmer's attitude toward production and their behaviors of decision-making, which contribute to analyze their willingness to choose. This train of thought and frame of empirical analysis are not only help to open out basic characters and inner relationships about production economics of safe agri-food, but also conduce to the construction of theory of agriculture economics.(2) Systematic investigation design and data collection. Put theory, investigation and empirical research together in order to analyze the situation of economical benefits on safe agri-food production, and achieve correlative outcome as well. The layer upon layer investigation designed from production base to farmers, is aimed at gathering qualified samples and data, which provide the empirical materials for analysis of economical benefits on safe agri-food production and farmer's willingness to choose as well.(3) Statistical quantum and model groups of economical production benefit are constructed and estimated to measure the comparing benefit between safe agri-food and general agri-food. The safe agri-food production is one of innovation compared to general agri-food, while it is also a new pattern of advantage distribution." There isn't any safe lunch for free", the economical benefits of safe agri-food production is the goal that producers pursuit, and it is quite different from general agri-food in input, output and the calculation of economical benefits. Three statistical quantum are constructed to comparatively analyze the safe agri-food production with application of statistics and comparative advantage theory. Model groups of economical production benefit are constructed to empirically analyze the integrate benefit of safe agri-food production (TR), benefit of farmer (RH), benefit of affiliated enterprise (RE), andinfluenced factors.(4) Analysis and estimation about further development of safe agri-food production based on farmer by Multinomial logit model. The application of Multinomial logit model in field of agriculture economics is few in China. This study empirically analyzes the probability of farmer's choice to produce safe agri-food and those influenced factors by constructing the Multinomial logit model based on analysis of economical benefits about agricultural production. The result is both the conversion of farmer's divers choices and adjustment among various collocated factors can improve the precision of estimation.
