摘要

农药处理是许多食品供应链的关键组成部分，但农药处理人员的劳动力市场很少研究。这项研究使用了美国全国调查的数据，表明与其他农场工人相比，农药处理人员的工资高出15%。为了理解这种溢价，使用匹配技术来识别除农药处理外在各方面观察上相同的工人。使用这些方法，大约一半的工资溢价可以与可观察到的特征相关，包括作物类型、地理位置、法律工作授权、教育、经验和其他个人特征。

An Analysis of Pesticide Handler Wages in the United States

Abstract Pesticide handling is a critical component of many food supply chains yet labor markets for pesticide handlers are little studied. This study uses data from the U.S. national survey to show that relative to other farmworkers, pesticide handlers get paid 15% more. To understand this premium, matching techniques are used to identify workers who are observationally equivalent in every way except pesticide handling. Using these methods, approximately half of the wage premium can be related back to observable characteristics, including crop type, geographic location, legal work authorization, education, experience, and other personal characteristics.
