Under the circumstances of significant reforms in China's rural land and financial policies,the value connotation of cultivated land is constantly evolving,which will reshape farmers'production behaviors.To explore the influence of farmers'perception of the economic value of cultivated land on the reduction of chemical fertilizer application and its functional mechanism,starting from the rent value and financial value inherent in cultivated land,an analytical framework of"perception of cultivated land value-enthusiasm for cultivated land protection-chemical fertilizer use"has been constructed.Based on the survey data of 2 110 farmers in Henan Province(2024),an empirical test was carried out.The results demonstrated that the stronger the farmers'perception of the rent value and financial value of cultivated land,the lower the amount of chemical fertilizer used.After the tests of data variation and the robustness test using the instrumental variable method,the results remained stable.Further analysis revealed that the historical adjustment context of agricultural land would affect farmers'perception of the stability of land property rights,thereby weakening their perception of the economic value of cultivated land and being detrimental to the reduction of chemical fertilizer.Meanwhile,the influence of the perception of the economic value of cultivated land on the use of organic fertilizer not only did not decrease but also significantly increased.Therefore,it was suggested that the government continue promoting the market-oriented transfer of rural land,improving the availability of farmland mortgage loans,improving the farmland value assessment mechanism,and continuously clarifying rural land property rights.By enhancing farmers'perception of the economic value of cultivated land,their intrinsic enthusiasm for reducing chemical fertilizer could be stimulated,thereby promoting more green and sustainable agricultural development.
