摘要

目的本研究调查了印度洋葱、秋葵和石榴生产合同农业对小农利润的影响。本文还探讨了农民参与承包农业的决定因素。这项研究是基于对印度马哈拉施特拉邦种植这三种作物的1131名农民的调查。设计/方法/方法本研究采用工具变量回归和准实验方法来解读承包农业的影响。研究结果表明,合同农业可确保小农获得更高的回报,使他们能够进入高端市场,并在价格波动期间提供风险分担和保护。农场规模和农民的风险认知与他们参与合同农业显著相关。研究局限性/启示:该研究基于横断面数据,这在考虑未观察到的农民水平的个体异质性方面存在局限性。独创性/价值研究表明,契约强调了市场投入和产出两端的承包商/集成商的功能。通过信贷和折扣价格提供质量更好的投入,以及提供培训,集成商帮助小农达到国际食品安全和质量标准,这是印度小农历来面临的一项艰巨挑战。

Determinants and impacts of contract farming: evidence from cultivation of onion, okra and pomegranate in Maharashtra, India
PurposeThis study investigates the impact of contract farming in onion, okra and pomegranate production on profits of smallholder farmers in India. It also investigates the determinants of farmers’ participation in contract farming. The study is based on a survey of 1,131 farmers from Maharashtra, India engaged in the cultivation of these three crops.Design/methodology/approachThis study uses instrumental variable regressions and quasi-experimental methods to decipher the impact of contract farming.FindingsThe study reveals that contract farming ensures higher returns for smallholders, enables their access to high-end markets and brings in risk-sharing with protection during price fluctuations. Farm size and farmers’ risk perceptions are significantly associated with their participation in contract farming.Research limitations/implicationsThe study is based on cross-sectional data, which presents limitations on considering unobserved farmer-level individual heterogeneity.Originality/valueThe study shows that contracts highlight the functioning of the contractor/integrator on both the input and output sides of the market. By providing better-quality inputs on credit and at discounted prices and by providing training, the integrator helps small farmers meet international food safety and quality standards, a historically difficult challenge for smallholders in India.
