农村环境质量与农民健康成本关系研究

The relationship between rural environmental quality and farmers’health cost

文章基于2001—2018年数据,利用熵值法从生产、生态和生活三个方面的度量结果显示我国农村环境质量呈显著的波动性上升趋势,以人均医疗服务支出显示的农民健康成本具有持续上升的特点;固定效应和门槛回归的实证分析发现我国农村的环境质量与农民健康成本之间既具有反向关系,也具有正向关系;农业发展水平、人口老龄化和政府对医疗服务扶持显著地提高了农民医疗服务需求。促进环境友好型农业生产转型与扩大“三品一标”产品规模,完善农村医疗服务保障制度建设、增加农外收入对提高农村环境质量、建设秀美宜居乡村,促进乡村生态振兴进程的意义重大。

Based on the data from 2001 to 2018,the following results were obtained:the results of measuring the production environment,ecological environment and living environment by using the entropy method indicated that the rural environmental quality in China showed a significant upward trend of volatility,and the health costs for farmers had a characteristic of continuous rise according to the per capita medical service demand;the empirical analysis of fixed effect and threshold regression found that there were both reverse and positive relationships between rural environmental quality and farmers’health cost;the level of agricultural development,the aging of population and the government’s support for medical services increased significantly the demand of farmers for medical services.Promoting the environment-friendly transformation of agricultural production,expanding the scale of“three products and one standard”products,perfecting the construction of rural medical service guarantee system,and increasing non-agricultural income are of great significance to improving rural environmental quality,building beautiful and livable countryside,and promoting the process of rural ecological revitalization.
