The Impact of Urbanization on the Income of Local Farmers:From the Perspective of Factor Reallocation
Promoting the sustained and rapid growth of local farmers'income is conducive to the implementation of the rural revitalization strategy.Based on county-level data from 2010 to 2020,as well as data from the China Family Panel Survey(CFPS)in 2010,2012,2014,2016,2018,and 2020,this paper explores the impact of urbanization on the income level of local farmers from a dual perspective of growth and distribution effects.The results indicate that urbanization significantly improves the income level of local farmers,and this conclusion still holds after a series of robustness tests and endogeneity treatments.Mechanism analysis shows that urbanization relaxes the constraints on the flow of factors,accelerates the flow of economic factors,and promotes the reallocation of labor and land factors to local farmers,thereby improving their income level.In addition,from the perspective of income distribution,local farmers with a higher level of human capital and those located in areas with more initial resource endowments benefit more from urbanization.The development of urbanization has increased the income gap within local farmers to a certain extent,highlighting the phenomenon of income inequality within local farmers.This study provides implications for promoting the integrated development of urban and rural areas during the new urbanization.
