The Impact of Natural Disasters on Rural Labor Force's Outgoing Employment:"Push-Adhesion"Research Based on Risk and Livelihood Resilience
In recent years,extreme weather events have been a multiple challenge to agricultural production and farmers'increase.Using the China Family Panel Studies(CFPS)data,the Logistic model is applied to the Yangtze River Basin to discuss the"push-adhesion"effect of disaster risk and livelihood resilience on rural laborers'outgoing employment.The research results are as follows:(a)the natural disasters reduce rural labor net income and improve the relative deprivation,which would produce the same push effect,leading to rural labor migration.(b)Livelihood re-silience in the form of participating in social security and government subsidies has significant stickiness,which can re-duce the probability of labor going out for employment due to natural disasters.(c)The impact of agricultural disasters in major grain-producing areas leads to more obvious phenomenon of rural labor migration.Different natural disasters also have obvious heterogeneity in the choice of rural labor in the upper,middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze Riv-er.(d)The majority of individuals prefer to work for a short period of time,especially those with heavy care of family members and low human capital,who usually return home after earning a certain amount of salary.
