西部山区农户生计资产综合评价——以遵义市为例（英文）

Comprehensive Evaluation of Farm Household Livelihood Assets in a Western Mountainous Area of China: A Case Study in Zunyi City

作为农户生计结构基础的生计资产状况是其拥有选择机会、采用生计策略和抵御生计风险的基础,也是获得积极生计成果的必要条件。准确量化农户生计资产可以从本源上对农户未来发展态势进行识别,对掌握农户的生计脆弱性、生计策略以及了解农户的生计现状都具有重要意义。本研究以地处西部山区的遵义市为研究区,釆用分层抽样方法与参与式农村调查评估法收集农户的生计资产属性和生计策略等相关数据,构建了农户生计资产指标评价体系,对不同生计策略类型农户的生计资产特征进行了评价分析。研究结果表明:(1)不同生计策略农户的生计资产总值差异较小,主要是因为不同类型生计资产的拥有结构上差异较大。(2)纯农户拥有较多的自然资产和物质资产,但其人力资产、金融资产和社会资产较匮乏。(3)非农户和兼业户拥有较多的人力资产、金融资产和社会资产,但拥有的自然资产和物质资产较匮乏。

As the foundation of farm household structure,livelihood asset status is the basis for farmers to gain opportunities,adopt livelihood strategies,resist livelihood risk,and engage in positive livelihood achievements.Quantifying farm household assets identifies future development trends that are fundamentally necessary to predict farm household vulnerability and strategy,as well as understanding farmers’current living situations.Using Zunyi City in China’s western mountainous area as a case study,we conducted stratified sampling and participatory rural investigation appraisal to collect data on the attributes of farm households’livelihood assets and livelihood strategies to establish an index evaluation system and enable evaluation and analysis of farm households with different livelihood strategies.Our research indicates that due to structural differences,total livelihood assets of farm households with different livelihood strategies are similar.Rural households have an abundance of natural and material assets and deficiencies in human,financial and social assets.Non-rural households and part-time households are abundant in human,financial and social assets and deficient in natural and material assets.
