乡村振兴背景下农村电商直播助力产业发展策略研究

农村电商直播在推动农业产业升级和乡村振兴等方面创造了巨大的经济社会效益。通过农村电商直播,农产品的销售渠道得以拓宽,农民的就业岗位得以增加,农村电商直播为乡村振兴背景下的农村发展带来了新希望。然而作为新兴事物,农村电商直播在产品生产端和直播平台端都存在一些亟待解决的问题,如农产品电商直播基础服务不完善,农产品品牌效应弱,农村电商直播评价反馈体系不完善等。因此,针对乡村振兴背景下农村电商直播助力产业发展问题进行探讨并提出解决方案,具有现实意义。     

高职学生乡村振兴意愿与影响因素研究——基于广东交通职业技术学院的调研分析

乡村振兴战略是党的十九大提出的一项重大战略,其中人才振兴是乡村振兴的基础,但农村客观上存在很多难以短时间解决的困难,青壮年、大学生都倾向于留在大城市工作,人才紧缺已经成为限制农村发展的重要瓶颈,如何让更多的大学生参与助力乡村振兴中的研究具有重要的社会意义和现实意义。本文针对高职大学生群体进行研究,在“互联网+”时代背景下,分析了高职大学生的就业创业特点、参与乡村振兴的意愿动机,和内外部的影响因素等,试图寻找适合当代大学生投身乡村振兴的方法和模式,同时,也从大学生的角度提出了如何建立健全相关的国家、社会和学校的支持体系。     

Female participation in African labor markets: The role of information and communication technologies

This article investigates the effects of information and communication technologies (ICT) on female labor force participation in a sample of 48 African countries. We specify and estimate linear regression and dynamic panel data models with fixed effects (FE) and system-generalized method of moments (SYS-GMM) estimation over the period 2001–2017. The three main results are that ICT use (mobile phone and internet) significantly stimulates female labor force participation in Africa; this effect is enhanced by financial development and female education; the effect of ICT on female employment in Africa is strongest in the industrial sector. These results remain robust to the provision of social, cultural, and institutional variables.     

The Urban–Rural Gap of Chinese Household Finance

Using data from a large household survey, we investigate the size of China’s urban–rural gap in ownership of bank deposits, risky financial assets, and credit cards. We further examine the factors underlying the gap using decomposition analysis. Compared to their urban counterparts, rural Chinese are much less likely to own a variety of financial products. Both demand-side barriers and supply-side barriers to financial inclusion exist in China. More, we use instrumental variable analysis to address the endogeneity of the local supply of financial service. Above all, our study indicates that a large financial services vacuum in rural areas needs to be filled.     

Neighbourhood Effects in Pesticide Use: Evidence from the Rural Philippines

This study investigates how pesticide use by neighbouring farmers affects a given farmer's pesticide use. Although it is common knowledge that pesticide use has spatial externalities, few empirical economic studies explicitly analyse this issue. Applying a spatial panel econometric model to plot‐level panel data for Bohol, Philippines, this study shows that pesticide use, especially for herbicides, is spatially correlated, although there is no statistically significant spatial correlation in unobserved shocks. This implies that farmers apply pesticides by referring to the behaviour of neighbouring farmers rather than responding directly to the intensity of their own infestation.     

Socio‐economic transitions and everyday life changes in the rural world: Pyrenean households and their contemporary economic history

This article focuses on understanding rural life and how agrarian everyday life changes as a consequence of the radical socio‐economic transformations that, across the world, have accompanied rural communities in their transition from economies of subsistence to industrial production, and, in some areas, from there to providers of service to the tourism‐oriented leisure economy. In the last century in the Alt Urgell District (Spanish Pyrenees), many communities went from a production model based on subsistence farming and livestock breeding first to a specialization in milk production and later to tourism. The industrialization of milk production, the radical transformation of the scale of their operations, and the monetization of life transformed the identity and structure of these communities. The subsequent transformation of many of these farms to accommodate the leisure industry changed the shape of these households again. This paper reflects on how science, governance, commodification, and technology played a role on the transformation of the rural mountain areas, their people, and their everyday life.

农村金融发展对农业技术创新影响研究

利用中国30个省（市、区）2000-2017年的面板数据，通过静态固定效应面板模型和系统GMM模型实证研究了金融发展对农业技术创新的影响。研究结果表明：①农业金融发展显著提升了农业技术创新水平的提高；②财政支农、机械化总动力和人均农村固定资产投资额也不同程度的提升了农业技术创新水平，但农业经济增长不是农业技术创新显著的影响因素。因此，应不断加大农村金融对农业技术创新的助推效应，挖掘农村金融支持新的着力点，不断提高农业机械化程度和农村固定资产投资力度。     

社会资本视角下农村基础设施管护效果影响因素分析——基于甘肃省9个市县的实证研究

以甘肃省9个县市的调查数据为基础,将社会资本划分为社会参与、社会规范、互惠网络三个维度,运用结构方程模型,来探讨三个维度对农村基础设施管护效果的影响。结果表明:(1)社会规范对农村基础设施管护效果显正向影响。(2)互惠网络对农村基础设施管护效果显负向影响。(3)社会参与对农村基础设施管护效果的直接影响不显著,但通过社会规范及互惠网络间接产生影响。(4)就总效应而言,社会规范对农村基础设施管护效果的影响要大于社会参与及互惠网络产生的影响。
