摘要

各个专业领域的从业者越来越多地使用智能手机，这引起了全球的关注。然而，关于发展中国家农村农民使用智能手机的证据很少。本研究利用从中国5个省1286户农村农户收集的数据，调查了影响农民使用智能手机决策的因素。Probit模型的研究结果显示，教育、健康状况、资产所有权、收入水平、同龄人的智能手机使用情况、互联网接入、合作社成员资格、信贷获取和非农工作参与是推动农村农民使用智能手机的主要因素。农民的年龄对智能手机的使用有显著的负面影响。进一步的异质性分析表明，影响智能手机使用的因素在调查省份之间有所不同。

Factors influencing smartphone usage of rural farmers: Empirical analysis of five selected provinces in China

The increasing usage of smartphones by practitioners in various fields of expertise is attracting global attention. However, scanty evidence exists on smartphone usage among rural farmers in developing countries. Using data collected from 1286 rural farming households in five provinces in China, this study investigates the factors influencing rural farmers’ decisions to use smartphones. The findings from a Probit model reveal that education, health condition, asset ownership, income levels, peers’ smartphone usage, internet access, cooperative membership, access to credit, and off-farm work participation are the main factors driving smartphone usage of rural farmers. The age of the farmer rather affects smartphone usage negatively and significantly. Further heterogeneous analysis shows that the influences of factors on smartphone usage vary across the survey provinces.
