文摘定量评估生态移民工程对农户收入的影响,可为生态移民工程的实施效果评价、完善移民政策提供决策依据。该文以广西环江县30个移民安置屯281户农户为研究对象,采用参与性农户评估方法(PRA,participatory rural appraisal),收集迁入区农户在工程实施前后收入及其组成结构的变化数据,根据研究需要将调查农户分为移民和原驻民,利用倍差法(DID,difference in differences)分析了生态移民工程对迁入区农户收入及收入结构的影响。结果表明,移民农户的收入水平比搬迁前有较为明显的提高,1996-2011年,家庭总收入的年增长率达26.02%,此外,种植业、林业及非农收入也呈现不同程度的增长趋势。与安置区原驻民相比,移民的各项收入总量仍然偏低,除其他非农收入外,生态移民工程对移民各项收入的影响呈负效应,耕地、林地等土地资源占有量的不均衡是原因之一。因此,要保障生态移民工程实施的可持续性,应加强工程实施效果的跟踪评价,加快迁入区土地再分配与确权制度研究,促进移民与原驻民生计的协同发展。
