Abstract

Farmland rental markets are important in production agriculture. Informal farmland rental markets have taken root in Chinese agriculture. However, farmland rental markets need to be transparent for increased efficiency and smooth functioning. This study uses three waves of nationally representative panel data and a difference‐in‐differences framework to examine the effect of China's Land Transfer Service Centers (LTSCs) on market‐oriented farmland transfers. The result indicates that LTSCs enhance farmland transfer marketisation, encouraging landowners to rent their land to large‐scale operators, engage in fixed‐term contracts and charge pecuniary rents. However, the LTSCs' “discrimination” against smallholders may limit their impact on the overall market. Additionally, LTSCs have weaker effects in villages with large clans and stronger effects in villages with bank outlets. The results illustrate the potential value of intermediary service organisations (ISOs) in land rental markets.

从非正规农地租赁到市场化交易:中国的土地流转服务中心有用吗?
耕地租赁市场在生产型农业中非常重要。非正式的农田租赁市场已在中国农业中扎根。然而,耕地租赁市场需要透明化,以提高效率和平稳运行。本研究利用三波具有全国代表性的面板数据和差分法框架,考察了中国土地流转服务中心对市场化农地流转的影响。结果表明,土地流转服务中心促进了农地流转市场化,鼓励土地所有者将土地出租给规模化经营者,签订固定期限合同并收取租金。然而,土地流转服务公司对小农户的 "歧视 "可能会限制其对整个市场的影响。此外,在有大宗族的村庄中,土地托管公司的影响较弱,而在有银行网点的村庄中,土地托管公司的影响较强。这些结果说明了中介服务组织在土地租赁市场中的潜在价值。
