Abstract: Abstract:Based on the micro-data of rice growers in Jiangsu Province in 2018, this paper uses logit model to empirically analyzes the influence of farmers' labor endowment characteristics and risk aversion degree on the willingness to adopt and adopt behavior of the all-inclusive forms of pest control. The study found that: First, the family labor status has a significant impact on farmers' technology adoption behavior. When the household labor force is short, the willingness and behavior of farmers to adopt have been significantly improved. At the same time, the main left-behind labor force in the part-time situation, farmers are also more willing to adopt this prevention and control technology. Second, the higher the risk aversion of farmers, the more unfavorable the improvement of their willingness to adopt technology, and the negative impact on actual adoption behavior. Third, there is a scale threshold for farmers' technology adoption willingness and behavior, with a threshold value of 15 mu. The number of Left-behind labor force has no significant difference on technology adoption behavior under different scales. The improvement of risk aversion degree has a significant negative impact on the willingness and behavior of different scales of households. The conclusion of the study provides some suggestions and references for further promoting the service of unified defense rule.
