互联网使用对农户家庭非农创业的影响及机制研究

Research on the Influence and Mechanism of Internet Use on Non-agricultural Entrepreneurship of Farmers' Families

互联网信息技术的快速发展,不仅可以促进农民收入增长,而且可以促进农村经济发展。基于中国家庭追踪调查(CFPS)2018年数据,实证分析互联网使用对农户家庭非农创业的影响。研究发现,互联网使用显著促进农户家庭非农创业,且在使用稳健性检验和工具变量处理内生性问题后,结论依然成立。异质性发现,互联网使用促使新生代农户家庭的非农创业概率高于新一代农户家庭,乡村农户家庭非农创业概率高于城镇家庭。进一步发现,社会资本作为中介变量显著影响互联网使用和农户家庭非农创业,互联网使用显著增加农户家庭社会资本,进而提高农户家庭非农创业概率。

The rapid development of Internet information technology can not only promote the growth of farmers' income,but also promote the development of rural economy.Base on the 2018 data of CFPS to empirically analyze the impact of Internet use on non-agricultural entrepreneurship of rural households.The study finds that Internet use significantly promotes non-agricultural entrepreneurship among farmers,and this conclusion remains robust after using robustness tests and instrumental variables to deal with endogeneity issues.Heterogeneity found that the probability of off-agricultural entrepreneurship for new-generation peasant households is higher than that of new-generation peasant households,and the probability of off-farm entrepreneurship for rural peasant households is higher than that of urban households.It is further found that social capital,as an intermediary variable,significantly affects Internet use and non-agricultural entrepreneurship of farmers,and Internet use significantly increases the social capital of farmers,thereby increasing the probability of non-agricultural entrepreneurship of farmers.
