| Under the realistic background of the large-scale migration of agricultural labor,the main body of agricultural production and management has been rapidly lost,which has brought labor shortage and quality decline to agricultural production to a certain extent.For the discussion of this issue,previous studies in the academic community have focused on how to promote land transfer and scale operation of agricultural land.However,as the scale of land transfer has gradually reduced,scholars have focused on the agricultural social service system.Some scholars believe that compared with the large-scale transfer of land,agricultural socialization services ensure the main position of farmers’ production and management on the basis of not changing the land contractual management rights of farmers,and to some extent,satisfy the minimum risk of farmers’ income maximization.The need for a family’s economic security.By combing the existing literature,it is found that in the study of the influencing factors of farmers purchasing agricultural socialization services,the academics start from the individual characteristics of farmers,and analyze the economic rational perspective of cost-benefit.But how does the division of labor within the family affect the purchase of social services by farmers,the behavior lacks certain attention,and neglects the farmers’ land management strategy.At the same time,there are also considerations for avoiding risks and seeking security.With the deepening of the peasant’s concurrent industrialization,the differentiation of farmers with the characteristics of household labor division structure is becoming more and more obvious,and farmers’ demand for production socialized services shows obvious heterogeneity.Therefore,this paper aims to explore the impact of different family labor division structures on farmers’ adoption of agricultural socialization services from the perspective of the type of family division of labor.Based on the field research conducted by the research team,619 sample data of farmers in Jianli County and Zhangzhou County of Hubei Province were obtained.The relevant descriptive analysis and logistic andologistic regression models were used to empirically study the data.The conclusions of the study are as follows:First of all,regarding the status quo of farmers purchasing agricultural socialization services,farmers purchase a higher proportion of agricultural socialization services in labor-intensive production links such as tillage,transplanting,harvesting and transportation,and for technology-intensive production such as plant protection and drying.When considering the choice of service subjects,the “male workers” farmers pay more attention to “the relationship with the service subjects”.Relatively speaking,the “female workers and male farming” farmers pay more attention to the “quality of service”.The “green and young labor force special business agriculture” farmers account for the largest proportion of factors considering “price” and “quality of service”.The “Young and middle-aged labor force type” is the largest proportion of farmers considering the “other farmers/village collective recommendation”.Secondly,farmers’ families have an impact on farmers’ purchase of agricultural socialization services through different divisions of labor.Compared with the “Young and middle-aged labor force specialized farming ”,the “ Complete intergenerational division of labor”farmers and the “male workers and female farming” farmers and the“Young and middle-aged labor force Part-time farming” farmers purchase agricultural socialization services in the cultivation process.The possibility is higher;the “female workers and male farming ” farmers and the “ Young and middle-aged labor force Part-time farming ” farmers are more inclined to purchase agricultural socialization services.The “complete intergenerational division” family,the “complete gender division”and the“Young and middle-aged labor force Part-time farming”farmers have a higher degree of purchasing agricultural socialization services,while the “ mixed division” farmers and the “Young and middle-aged labor force specialized farming”There is no significant difference in the extent to which farmers purchase agricultural social services. |
