Research On The Large Grain Production Households' Demand And Supply Of Agricultural Socialization Services

With the rapid development of land circulation,the large grain production household(LGPH)has become an important part of China's grain production.Under this background,to provide more effective support for the LGPH,how to further improve the existing agricultural social service system which becomes an urgent problem to be solve.To solve this problem,we first need to study the condition of LGPH's supply and demand.Based on the professional division of labor theory,public goods theory,institutional change and behavior theory,this paper adopts the literature research method,questionnaire survey method,interview method and econometric analysis to investigate the demand and supply of LGPH.The main research contents are divided into five parts,detailed as follows:(1)Take the research of the related concepts and theoretical basis.Firstly,we investigate the connotation and the dividing standard of large grain.Based on it,we define the standard of LGPH in this paper.Secondly,we investigate the agricultural socialization service's the origin,development and connotation.Finally,we summarize the theory of public goods,professional division of labor theory,behavior theory and institutional change.(2)Study the agricultural socialization service's construction experience of developed countries.Firstly,we investigate the developed countries in Europe and America.We find that the United States and France's agricultural socialization service system include public service system,cooperative service system and private service system.However,Germany is different with them.In Germany,the government public service system is the main body of the agricultural socialization service system,and agricultural vocational federation and agricultural cooperation are just as supplement.Secondly,we investigate the developed countries in Asia.We find that in Japan and South Korea,the Agriculture Association is the main body of the agricultural socialization service system.Finally,based on the construction experience of developed countries and the actual situation of our country,we propose some suggestions which include "education,scientific research and promotion" system,cooperative organizations and agricultural enterprises.(3)Dissect the LGPH's demand willingness and influencing factors for agricultural socialization service.Based on the investigation of Yangzhou area of Jiangsu Province,we study LGPH's demand willingness for agricultural socialization service.We find that they have a strong desire for agricultural credit,agricultural technology services,machinery matching and agricultural materials and food storage service.Considering the characteristics of the decision makers,the family factors,the characteristics of grain planting and the factors of land transfer,we then further study the influencing factors of LGPH's demand.We find that,for the technology service,gender,whether to participate in cooperatives,education level,income grain proportion,acreage,land transfer price and years have a positive impact;for the information service,the education level and acreage have a positive impact;for the credit service,gender,education level,acreage,land transfer price and age have a positive impact;for the machinery service,age and whether to own a part-time work have a positive impact;for the machinery matching service,whether to own a part-time work,planting years and years of land transfer have a positive impact;for the storage service,whether to own a part-time work and acreage have a positive impact.(4)Consider the LGPH's supply condition of agricultural socialization service and degree of availability.Based on the investigation of Yangzhou area of Jiangsu Province,we study the LGPH's supply condition of agricultural socialization service which includes supply main body,service form and service content.We find that,for the technology service,government and the village collective economic organizations are the main supply body,the main form of service is technical training,service content is mainly pest damage prevention and control technology;for the information service,supply main body are also government and the village collective economic organizations,The main form of service is telephone notification and short message;for the credit services,banks and rural credit cooperatives are the main providers;for the machinery service,supply main body is LGPH,the main form of service is direct outsourcing,service content are mainly spray insecticide and harvest;for the machinery matching service,agricultural machinery maintenance point is the main supply of maintenance service,and the village collective is the main supply of agricultural machinery parked;for materials and food storage service,There are less organizations that provide such services at present.Based on it,using the method of cluster analysis,we further study LGPH's availability degree for agricultural socialization service.We find that,the agricultural machinery service's availability are highest,the next are agricultural technical service,agricultural credit and agricultural information service,the satisfaction of agricultural materials and food storage service and machinery matching service are lowest.(5)Analyze the LGPH's the equilibrium of supply and demand of agricultural socialization servic.Based on the above research results,we study the equilibrium of supply and demand of agricultural socialization services for LGPH.We find that,for LGPH,the supply of of agricultural technology service,agricultural credit service,machinery matching service,agricultural material and food storage service are less than their demand;agricultural information service and agricultural machinery service are in oversupply state;only the agricultural technical service is in the balance of supply and demand,but it is just in the middle level of equilibrium,i.e.,demand and supply are not very high.Based on this,we further study the reason of imbalance from the perspective of supply and demand.We find that,the research units's lower enthusiasm,the cooperative's insufficient supply capacity,the social resources's less supply,the less degree of implementation of agricultural land policy are the main reasons for the supply shortage;and a higher degree of land fragmentation,land flatness,the shorter land transfer,the lower quality of LGPH are the main reason for the insufficient effective demand.
