Abstract

Wage inequality within rural areas refers to the wage inequality between the modern and traditional agricultural sectors. In developing countries, the development of modern agriculture is an important factor affecting this inequality. This paper establishes a general equilibrium model to investigate this impact under the framework of labor transfer. We found that capital subsidy policies for modern agriculture will be conducive to expanding the scale of modern agriculture and narrowing wage inequality within rural areas. Conversely, wage subsidies for modern agriculture would widen wage inequality within rural areas, despite facilitating the transition of traditional agricultural labor into modern agriculture.

现代农业发展对农村地区工资不平等的影响
农村工资不平等是指现代农业部门与传统农业部门之间的工资不平等。在发展中国家,现代农业的发展是影响这种不平等的重要因素。本文建立了一个一般均衡模型,在劳动力转移的框架下考察这种影响。研究发现,现代农业资本补贴政策有利于扩大现代农业规模,缩小农村内部工资差距。相反,现代农业的工资补贴会扩大农村地区的工资不平等,尽管它促进了传统农业劳动力向现代农业的转变。
