摘要

随着工业化进程的加快和城市工业对男性劳动力需求的增长,许多发展中国家的农业生产呈现出明显的女性化特征。因此,提高农村妇女的教育水平是增加耕地收益、减少耕地抛荒的关键。本研究利用中国劳动力动态调查(CLDS)数据,考察了农村妇女受教育程度对耕地抛荒的影响。结果显示,农村家庭女主人的受教育程度每提高一个等级,该家庭的耕地抛荒面积就会减少 40 平方米。妇女受教育程度的提高可以促进互联网的使用,帮助家庭获得信贷,更好地控制农业生产成本,从而抑制耕地抛荒。此外,对于土地租赁市场发达的农村地区,以及男主人外出从事非农工作的家庭,妇女教育在减少耕地抛荒方面可以发挥更大的作用。

Reducing farmland abandonment by raising women’s education levels: Evidence from China
With the rapid industrialization and the growing demand for male labor in urban industries, agricultural production in many developing countries presents obvious feminization features. Accordingly, improving the education level of rural women is the key to increasing farmland return and reducing farmland abandonment. Using data from the China Labor-force Dynamics Survey (CLDS), this study examines the effect of rural women’s education on farmland abandonment. The results reveal that for each increase in the education level of a hostess in a rural household, the abandoned farmland of that household decreases by 40 m2. The increase in women’s education level can promote the use of the Internet, help households access credit, and better control the costs of agricultural production, thus curbing farmland abandonment. In addition, women’s education can play a stronger role in reducing farmland abandonment for rural areas where the land rental market is well developed, as well as for families whose male hosts go out to join non-farm work.
