The Performance Evaluation And Optimization Of Zhejiang Agricultural Subsidy Policies

Agricultural subsidy is a kind of transfer payment which is designed to support agricultural production, circulation and trade, having the features of flexible operation, simple and quick to implement, so it is the most important and most commonly used government policy tool for one nation to support and protect the agriculture. With the exploration and development after 21 centuries, China has established a system of agricultural subsidy policies at present, contenting the direct subsidy to grain producers, subsidy for growing superior seed varieties, farm machinery purchase subsidy and subsidy for agricultural production supplies, and it has played a very important role in ensuring food security and increasing farmers’ income. Specially, under the background of trade liberation and economic development intensified, agricultural subsidy policies are very necessary to achieve the multiple goals of agricultural development. And as the main sales areas of grain, the agricultural development of Zhejiang province is faced with declining rate of agricultural products, agricultural production environment continued to deteriorate and many other more serious challenges, so correct understanding of the effect of the existing agricultural subsidy policies and further optimizing the policy system have important theoretical significance and practical significance.From the point of purpose and object, the current system of agricultural subsidy policy in Zhejiang province can be mainly divided into price support policy, direct subsidies policy and general service support policy, and its expected targets are increasing grain yield, increasing farmers’ income, agricultural sustainable development and price stability and so on. Through the analysis of two dimensions of input-output model measurement and peasant household production behavior function equilibrium solution, we can come to the conclusion that the continuous innovation and improvement of Zhejiang agricultural subsidy policies system has promoted the common implementation of multiple targets to a certain extent. Among them, the minimum purchase price policy has the effect of stabling market prices of agricultural products, increasing agricultural market supply and improving farmers’ income, and the direct income subsidy policy can promote the farmers’ income and arouse the enthusiasm of the farmers, and the production factors subsidy policy is benefit to improve the level of modernization of agricultural production and the agricultural production efficiency, and the agricultural infrastructure construction projects can optimize the environment of agricultural production and increase agricultural output. But on the other hand, through the vertical and horizontal comparative analysis it can be seen that the existing agricultural subsidy also has a series of problems, such as the insufficient amount, unreasonable structure, low standards, low overall efficiency and too high administrative execution cost and so on.Therefore, this article analyzes the implement time background of agricultural subsidy policy in Zhejiang province at first, showing the meaning of thesis writing. At second, the basic situation of current agricultural subsidy policies of Zhejiang will be category introduced, including some main obstacles which are existed in itself and the implementation process. At third, demonstrating the effect of subsidy policies from the dimensions of input and output and farmers’ produce behavior, and the former is mainly adopted in the process of analysis of regression measurement analysis, the DEA relative efficiency analysis, descriptive statistics and other methods, and the latter is mainly constructed farmer agricultural production function and the profit function to illustrate different economic effects of different subsidy policies. At forth, analyzing the implementation of the general law of agricultural subsidy policies in other countries and regions, and coming to related revelation which has important reference significance and is benefit to enhance the reliability and operability of the following measures. At last but not least, on the basis of former depiction, focus clearing the whole idea of optimizing Zhejiang agricultural subsidy system, and putting forward specific measures to perfect the subsidy policies.
