However,Chinese farmers' cooperative organizations have the advantages of diversification,full supporting and great opportunities of Internet economy and e-commerce environment. Based on that,this paper puts forward the " Chinese mode" for the development of farmers' cooperative organizations in China in the future,that is,the main body of innovation and entrepreneurship will unite,and the other entities of production and industry will follow them.

Development of business capacity and organization of commercial business of farmer based organizations in the northern intervention zone in Ghana: A case study of nine-farmer based organizations

The Agricultural Component of the Millennium Challenge Account Ghana Compact was to alleviate poverty and improve livelihoods of farmers through commercial development of farmer organizations in the intervention zones in Ghana. In Ghana, there were three intervention zones as Southern Horticultural Zone, Afram Basin Zone and Northern Horticultural Zone. Nine Farmer Based Organizations (FBO’s) of 450 farmers consisting of 65.1% males and 34.9% females in the West Mamprusi district of the Northern Horticultural Zone were trained by authors under the Millennium Development Authority (MiDA) Agricultural Project. Farmers of the FBO’s were trained on nine modules on Business Capacity Building and five modules on Organization of Commercial Business over a period of six weeks. Age range of trainee farmers was 30-39 years for males representing 37.54% and 40-49 years for females representing 29.94%. Educational level of trainee farmers was 9.90% males and 1.91% females who completed primary school. Trainee farmers who completed senior high school were 2.73% and 0.64% for males and females, respectively. There were no university graduates among the trainees of the nine farmer groups trained. Among the educated trainee farmers was 81.91% male illiterate and 91.72% illiterate. Trainees’ farm size was 0.4-2.0 hectares representing 57.43% males and 66.45% females. Attendance of male trainees over the period of six weeks was 89.76% and 10.24% absentees, whereas attendance of females over the same period was 88.96% and 11.04% absentees. Nine Action Business Plans were developed for the nine FBO’s to access financial support from the MiDA participating financial institutions in the horticultural zone for the commercial development of farmers’ organizations. This paper presents a case study analysis of Business Capacity Building and Organization of Commercial Business modules provided in the Northern Horticultural Zone to nine Farmer Based Organizations (FBO’s).

Researches on Agricultural Cooperative Economic Organization Promoting Agricultural Insurance Development

The advantages of cooperative economic organization being the effective carrier of agricultural insurance development are analyzed. Firstly, cooperative economic organization promotes scale management and solves the problem of decentralized operation of small households. Secondly, cooperative economic organization can settle the problem of peasants' low systematization. Thirdly, cooperative economic organization can largely reduce the costs of agricultural insurance operation. Fourthly, cooperative organization decreases moral risks as well as adverse selection to some extent. Lastly, cooperative organization, to a certain degree, reduces the risks of agricultural production and increases the insurability of agricultural risks. Meanwhile, limitations of agricultural cooperative economic organization being the carrier of agricultural insurance operation are pointed out. Firstly, cooperative economic organization has limited coverage and small size of organization, which is harmful to the diversification of agricultural risks. Secondly, cooperative economic organization lacks capital funds and its development is not standard, which is not perfect for the function exertion as a carrier. Lastly, members of professional cooperative organization have low cultural qualities, which restrict the implementation of agricultural insurance. The modes of farmers' cooperative economic organization promoting agricultural insurance development are proposed, including mode of agricultural insurance cooperative ( mutual corporation), mode of "leading enterprises (companies) + professional cooperative organization (planting majors) + insurance" and mode of professional cooperatives serving as agricultural insurance agent. Last of all, the promoting role of agricultural insurance in agricultural cooperative economic organization is briefly illustrated.

Development of organ transplantation in China and organ donation

This article provides a concise overview of the development of organ transplantation in China.Inspired by international advancements in organ transplantation,China embarked on its own organ transplantation research journey in 1958.The clinical evaluation phase is marked by the first cadaveric kidney transplant in 1960 and the first living-donor kidney transplant in 1972.By 1989,the annual number of successful kidney transplants had surpassed 1000.However,57 liver transplants were performed between 1977 and 1983;limitations in technology and the scarcity of cyclosporine A resulted in unfavorable outcomes for most recipients,with the majority succumbing within 3 months of surgery.These factors led to a near-complete halt in liver,heart,and lung transplants for the following decade.With all 4 conditions met-(1)mature surgical techniques,(2)powerful immunosuppressive agents available for clinical use,(3)new organ preservation solutions that ensure the quality and transportation of donor organs,and(4)reasonable and legal sources of organs-China's organ transplantation field has experienced rapid development.In 2014,there were 9652 organ transplants,and this number grew to 20,225 by 2022.Despite the progress,China's organ donation rate per million remains relatively low,3.86 ranking 48th globally in 2022,underscoring the need for increased public awareness and support for organ donation.

Research on Contractual Model Selection of Farmers' Cooperatives——A Case Study of Production and Marketing Cooperative of Sweet Pomegranate in Mengzi,Yunnan

In the perspective of new institutional economics,we regard farmers' cooperatives as a "contractual set" integrating a series of long-term contractual relations,and transform the selection problem of organization forms into selection problem of contractual model within organization.By the theoretical framework of Transaction Cost Economics,we analyze the formation mechanism and determinant factors of contractual model of different farmers' cooperatives and conduct case study on Production and Marketing Cooperative of Sweet Pomegranate in Mengzi,Yunnan.The results show that selecting contractual forms of cooperatives is the result of weighing many factors;new organization model or contractual arrangement is complementary to the former system arrangement;the selection of cooperatives model is an important factor impacting cooperation efficiency and stability of organization.One organization model with efficiency not only hinges on the transaction characteristic of organization,but also considers the compatibility with exterior transaction environment.In the process of selecting contractual model,we should conform to objective evolving law,but not be in thrall to a certain given form.

现阶段我国农业农村发展变化、特点及政策思考

过去40多年,“三农”工作一直是全党工作的重中之重。党的二十届三中全会通过的《决定》提出要完善城乡融合发展体制机制,这表明当前和今后一个时期,党和国家要紧紧围绕这一体制机制改革目标,不断完善加快推进农业农村现代化工作的重点和方向。从现阶段我国农业农村发展呈现特点看,我国农业农村发展已取得一系列成就,但大而不强的特点依然突出,与美国等发达国家相比,我国农业劳动生产率、土地产出率和资源利用率不高;与国内非农业生产部门相比,农业科技应用、生产方式等相对落后等问题依然存在。因此,从国情农情出发,准确把握现阶段我国农业农村发展结构性、趋势性变化特征,通过坚持城乡融合发展、提高农业劳动生产率、扩大适度规模经营等措施,不断推进我国农业农村现代化,加快建设农业强国。

小农户衔接现代农业有助于提升农户韧性吗?——基于中国乡村振兴综合调查数据

着力提升农户韧性、增强农户可持续发展能力对于加快实现农民农村共同富裕具有重要意义。本文以缓冲能力、适应能力和学习能力测度农户韧性,采用2020年中国乡村振兴综合调查数据,实证探究小农户衔接现代农业对农户韧性的影响效果、作用机制及异质性。研究结果表明,小农户衔接现代农业能够提升农户韧性,尤其是改善了小农户的缓冲能力与学习能力;以采用电商与社会化服务表征的市场化衔接对农户韧性的提升作用大于以嵌入农业龙头企业或参与合作社表征的组织化衔接的影响。机制分析发现,缓解融资约束、改善市场交易与促进治理参与是衔接现代农业提升小农户韧性的重要路径。异质性分析结果显示,衔接现代农业对位于不同粮食功能区小农户韧性的影响无显著差异,对只种植粮食作物和兼种粮食与经济作物小农户的韧性有提升作用,且对于文化建设投入多、宜居水平高的村庄以及信息化条件好的家庭,衔接现代农业提升小农户韧性的效应更大。基于研究结论,本文提出探索构建农户韧性培育体系、完善小农户融入现代农业的财政金融支持政策、健全农村要素市场及交易机制等政策建议。
