Abstract
This study introduces a sophisticated model for evaluating bargaining power within the agricultural production service market, using data from China's Land Economy Survey and the bilateral stochastic frontier model. The findings indicate: (1) Suppliers elevate prices by 26.77% above the benchmark, while demanders reduce them by 24.36%, culminating in a market price that surpasses the benchmark. (2) Labor outflow and aging populations drive suppliers to further increase market prices. (3) Variations in individual characteristics underpin the disparity in bargaining power between suppliers and demanders. The study underscores the disadvantaged and heterogeneous nature of farmers (demanders), advocating for a recalibration of subsidy distribution to benefit farmers directly, rather than agricultural production service organizations, and the establishment of differentiated subsidy systems.
期刊介绍：
Agribusiness: An International Journal publishes research that improves our understanding of how food systems work, how they are evolving, and how public and/or private actions affect the performance of the global agro-industrial complex. The journal focuses on the application of economic analysis to the organization and performance of firms and markets in industrial food systems. Subject matter areas include supply and demand analysis, industrial organization analysis, price and trade analysis, marketing, finance, and public policy analysis. International, cross-country comparative, and within-country studies are welcome. To facilitate research the journal’s Forum section, on an intermittent basis, offers commentary and reports on business policy issues.
