Research On Shanghai Fengxian’s Peasants’ Revenue And Consumption Behaviors

As a big agricultural country, problems about Chinese agriculture, rural areas and peasantry are always fundamental issues which will influence the whole situation."80%of Chinese population are living rural areas, and Chinese stabilization will firstly depend on the stabilization of them. The beauty of city need the foundation of country." said Deng Xiaoping. The Party Central Committee and State Department have focused on the three dimensional rural issues for consecutive nine times, and a series of effective measures that are taking to strength and benefit agriculture, which take beneficiating agriculture,increasing the income of peasants and stabilizing rural areas as the target of government at all levels for present and the future. The level of farmers’ income are lower than that of town counterparts, and the markets can not meet the consumer demand of villagers.Thus,the key to enlarge rural life consumption is increase the peasants’income.This paper is trying to do theoretical and experimental research throughout the utility of foreign consumption theory about ecomomics and domestic research production about the revenue and consumption of peasants,and draws some conclusions by taking Shanghai Fengxian District for example.The main component includes:the increasing velocity of local farmers’ income is first high last low for the past20years,while the wage earnings kept greatly going up. Whereas the standard of living is higher than before,the gap between peasants’ revenue and urban dwellers’ revenue is enlarging,the trend of which will appear unstable for a given period of time with limits. It’s mainly subject to rural policy, agricultural climates,peasants civilization,allocation of agriculture and agricultural price.The relation of peasants’ present consumption to their lag consumption and lag revenue is uncertain. At present,peasants’s living conditions are getting better and it is completely essential to effectively boost the increase of living consumption,transform their traditional consumptive idea,upgrade famers’ revenue and perfect social security.It appears strong self-control in food consumption,and housing expenditure and deposits will be the hotpot of rural consumption.Others enjoyment and development consumption in household equipment,health care,transportation and communication,entertainment will steadily rise. Studies show that the main solutions to increase peasants’revenue and enlarge rural living consumption in outskirts of a town are setting up agricultural input increasing mechanism,strongly augmenting the support and protection,enhancing the quality of employees,improving rural consumptive environment,inducting peasants to transform traditional consumptive idea and amplifying rural social care systems.
