农田灌溉方式变化对农户时间分配的影响——对湖北省600个农户的调研分析

The Influence of Farmland Irrigation Method Change on Farmer Households’Time Allocation——Survey and Analysis Based on 600 Farmer Households in Hubei Province

农村家庭承包责任制实行以及农村税费改革后,灌区农户集体使用大中型农田水利工程的灌溉方式大为减少,相反,农户更多地选择自组织建设小型水利设施的灌溉方式。在"大水利"被"小水利"替代的演变中,有必要研究农户灌溉方式的转变对其时间分配的影响。借鉴加里.贝克尔时间和家庭生产分析框架,根据时间分配理论,利用湖北省600个农户的样本数据,就灌溉方式对农户时间分配的影响进行实证研究,结果表明:农田水利灌溉方式的转变对农民时间分配有较大的影响;集体灌溉的农户比家庭灌溉的农户参与农外创收性劳动的概率更高,时间也更长,从而可能比家庭灌溉的农户获得更高的收入;但灌溉方式的变化对农户休闲时间的影响不显著。

After the implementation of rural family contracted land system and rural tax-fee reform,the collective irrigation of peasant households in irrigated area to use big and medium-sized farmland water conservancy projects is dramatically reduced,on the contrary,the farmer households prefer to choose the irrigation method by self-organizing to construct small water conservancy facilities.In the process of the change from ＂big water conservancy＂ to ＂small water conservancy＂,it is necessary to study the influence of peasant household irrigation method change on their time allocation.Based on Becker＇s time and household production analysis framework,according to time allocation theory,by using sample data of 600 farmer households in Hubei Province,empirical research is conducted on the impact of irrigation method on farmer household time allocation,and the results show that the change of farmland water conservancy irrigation method has big effect on farmers＇ time allocation,that the probability of non-agricultural money-making by the farmer households to use collective irrigation is higher than that of the farmer households to use family irrigation,the former uses longer time and may obtain higher income than the later,however,the change of irrigation method has insignificant impact on leisure time of the farmer households.
