Research On Rural Poverty Reduction Effect Of Income Growth And Distribution Structure Distortion

"Agriculture, Countryside and Farmer" issues has been a concern of the Party and state.Seventeenth Party Congress report made it clear to the goal of building a socialist harmonious societ, emphasizing balanced development and people-centered scientific development concept, clearly put forward to solve the increasingly serious development gaps and imbalances.March2007, Premier Wen Jiabao in his government work report made it clear in the establishment of a nationwide rural subsistence allowances system.2008Central Document No.1once again made it clear that should solve the "three rural" issue as a top priority of the party’s work.March2009government work report also made clear that to increase poverty alleviation efforts,and improve national poverty reduction strategies and policies,increase funding for poverty alleviation,poverty alleviation stick open,focus on the village level,lavor force training,poverty alleviation and the industrialization immigrant poverty alleviation,poverty reduction target stabilize solve the problem of food and clothing and to achieve poverty alleviation.Reducing rural poverty population is an important part of "Agriculture, Countryside and Farmer" issues.30years of reform and opening up, China from the initial reforms driven by poverty to "blood transfusion" type of transfer payments based poverty alleviation, to the "blood" type of large-scale poverty alleviation openness and Poverty Alleviation Program, and achieved remarkable results in poverty reduction.But for a moment of economic growth to reduce the contribution of declining, poverty is currently in a stable level, the poor distribution is mainly to the west, the mountains and other poverty-stricken areas are concentrated, the efficiency of the government’s poverty reduction needs to be improved. Promote the "three rural" issue resolved, not only to protect the supply of agricultural products, largely in order to increase farmers’ income and to achieve the transfer of rural surplus labor force, thereby promoting the socialist new rural construction and long-term integration of urban and rural target.Since reform and opening, China’s rural economy has made remarkable achievements in income of rural residents steadily improved the quality of life has been significantly improved, and achieved remarkable results in poverty reduction. However, with the rapid economic growth is accompanied by growing our income inequality, economic growth appears to reduce poverty, but does not explain the decline in the proportion of the total poor population, in addition to economic growth, but also plays an allocation structure to crucial role. Therefore, the rapid economic development and the deepening of reform, while maintaining our society to establish a fair and stable income distribution mechanism and make it matures, it becomes particularly important. Ours is an agricultural population accounts for the majority of developing countries,"three rural" issue is currently a major bottleneck restricting China’s modernization, economic development, universal education, and other social democratization and legalization are dependent on the overall development of the vast rural areas and farmers change the poverty and backwardness. Therefore, the investigation stage of China’s rural poverty rate reason for the change, clear impact on incomes of the rural poor determinants for the government to adjust and improve rural income distribution structure to ensure fairness and maximizing efficiency.Firstly, this paper builds a theoretical analysis framework on economic growth, income distribution and proverty ruduction, and then develops a new Lorenz curve model to construct a distribution density function on rural household income of our country, and makes further improvement and modification of Poverty-Growth-Inequality arithmetic. Furthermore, we use rural household data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey(CHNS) to make an empirical analysis on the rural poverty reduction effect of income growth and distribution structure distortion in east and Mid-west provinces during1991-2009.The empirical results show that income growth has declined poverty population, however, distribution inequality has cut down poverty ruduction and also caused income share shrinking of low income groups constantly. By comparing, distribution inequality degree is much more obvious in Mid-west provinces than that of east coastal provinces, and2000later than before. Besides, Blinder-Oaxaca type equation decomposition results show that non-agricultural economic activity, education level, location and cultivated land area are respectively important influential factors of farmers’ income in individual level. However, at present major obstacles to restrain income growth of rural poverty family are the low non-agricultural economic activity participation rate and poor education level.
