Scattered Employment and Agricultural Land Transfer——Based on the Non-agricultural Labor Market Supply and Demand Structure Matching Perspective
The transfer of agricultural land is an important economic guarantee for improving the allocation and utilization efficiency of agricultural resources and ensuring the quality of food production.However,it has stagnated in recent years and has shown obvious regional disparities.Previous studies have mostly discussed the issue of low land transfer levels compared to the scale of rural labor migration from the perspectives of household division of labor and mechanical substitution.However,they have paid less attention to the issue of the mismatch between the supply and demand structure of non-agricultural labor markets in different regions for the full non-agricultural transfer of quality heterogeneous rural labor.This article starts from the micro-logic that the full transfer of household quality heterogeneous labor is a prerequisite for the full transfer of farmland by farmers,reveals the impact and theoretical logic of the supply and demand structure matching of the non-agricultural labor market on farmland transfer,and empirically tests the development of the local scattered labor market The impact on farmland turnover rate and the regulating effect of farmland resource endowment conditions.The results show that the development of the local scattered labor market has a promoting effect on the expansion of agricultural land transfer,but it is restricted by the endowment conditions of agricultural land resources,and the worse the agricultural production conditions are,the smaller the promoting effect of the development of the local scattered labor market on agricultural land transfer.Meanwhile the development of the local scattered labor market will reduce the intensity of agricultural land cultivation.Therefore,the key to further promoting the development of the agricultural land transfer market lies in the development of the scattered labor market to solve the problem of non-agricultural employment of left-behind rural labor force.
