Farmland Rights and Farmers'Income Diversification:Micro-mechanisms and Empirical Tests
The theoretical empirical and research of the impact of farmland rights on the diversification showed that farmland rights were generally conducive to increasing the degree of income diversification,and that farmland rights did increase the degree of income diversification of low-income households,while it lowered the high income households'income diversification.A further analysis of the impact of farmland rights on the farmers'livelihood choices revealed that farmland rights generally encouraged farmers to engage in non-farming activities and reduce the probability of their engaging in agriculture and livestock production,but the farmers'livelihood choices varied with their income levels,i.e.,the farmland rights encouraged low-income households to choose agriculture and livestock production more willingly and reduce the probability of low-income farmers'engaging in non-farming employment but increased the probability of high-income farmers'non-farming employment and decreased their likelihood of engaging in agriculture and livestock production.
