协同型基层治理对农户参与水土保护设施集体管护的影响

Effect of primary-level collaborative governance on farmers’participation in cooperative maintanence on soil and water conservation facilities

水土保护是系统改善耕地质量的有效手段,也是落实乡村振兴战略的内在要求。而基层治理现代化逐渐成为耕地质量提升的核心引擎之一,科学考察和评价基层治理特征对水土保护设施集体管护的影响效应,具有必要性和现实意义。本文从集体行动视角出发,基于新疆农户调查数据,通过探索性因子分析法和工具变量中介效应检验方法,考察了协同型基层治理对农户参与村庄灌溉渠系和农田防护林等水土保护设施集体管护的直接影响,以及协同型基层治理通过规则公平感知对农户参与水土保护设施集体管护的间接影响。研究表明:(1)协同型基层治理有助于促进农户参与水土保护设施集体管护决策;(2)规则公平感知在农户是否参与水土保护设施集体管护和提升管护效果中发挥正向中介作用;(3)协同参与、协同支持及协同网络维度显著激励农户参与水土保护设施集体管护的积极性,而对于水土保护设施集体管护效果方面仅有协同支持和协同信任维度发挥着促进作用。本文补充和完善了农村基层治理特征对水土保护设施集体管护行动影响机理方面的研究,对完善水土资源保护的激励机制、提升农村基层治理绩效等方面具有重要政策含义。

Soil and water conservation facilities are effective means to systematically improve the quality of farmland,and a requirement of implementing the rural revitalization strategy.The modernization of grassroots governance has gradually become one of the core engines to improving the quality of farmland.It is necessary and practical to scientifically investigate and evaluate the impact of primary-level governance characteristics on farmers’participation in cooperative maintanence on soil and water conservation facilities.Based on the survey data from723 farmers from Xinjiang,we used exploratory factor analysis and instrumental variable mediation effect model to investigate the direct impact of primary-level collaborative governance on farmers’participation in cooperative maintanence on soil and water conservation facilities,and the the indirect impact of primary-level collaborative governance mediated by rule fairness perception on farmers’participation in cooperative maintanence on soil and water conservation facilities.The results show that:(1)The primary-level collaborative governance has a significant positive impact on farmers’participation in cooperative maintanence on soil and water conservation facilities;(2)Farmers’perception of rule fairness plays a positive intermediary role in their participation decision and the effect of management and protection;(3)Further investigation found that the dimensions of collaborative participation,collaborative support,and collaborative network significantly encourage farmers to participate in cooperative maintanence on soil and water conservation facilities,while only the dimensions of collaborative support and collaborative trust play an incentive role in collective action of the cooperative maintanence on soil and water conservation facilities.This study supplemented and improved the research on the impact mechanism of grassroots governance on cooperative management and protection investment of soil and water conservation facilities,and has important policy implications for improving the incentive mechanism of rural farmland quality protection and improving the performance of rural grassroots governance.
