Agricultural Technology Services of Rural Professional Technical Associations:Models,Mechanisms and Practices
From the perspective of transaction costs,combined with the analysis of 97 typical case data across the country,this paper constructs a theoretical framework for rural professional and technical associations to carry out voluntary service.From the perspective of cost-saving and efficiency,the paper divides the voluntary service model of rural professional and technical associations into four types:search cost-saving model,acquisition cost-saving model,negotiation cost-saving model and organization cost-saving model.The paper summarizes the characteristics and applicability of different modes from the five dimensions of participants,service links,service costs service benefits,and regional differences.The study finds that the first three models mainly serve single or multiple links of agricultur-al development,and are"passive"technical services.The organizational cost saving model is an"ac-tive"technical service,which is more suitable for the development of agricultural modernization through effective allocation of factor resources and integration of market entities,building the entire agricultural industrial chain and creating new business forms.In addition,the first three models are less difficult to apply and promote,but their efficiency and benefit are not as good as the cost-saving model.Local rural professional and technical associations should adapt to local conditions and adopt appropriate models.
