Off-farm work decisions on Dutch cash crop farms and the 1992 and Agenda 2000 CAP reforms
研究了荷兰经济作物农场家庭参与非农工作的决策,发现配额和交易成本阻碍参与,而1992年和2000年议程的欧盟农业政策改革可能增加非农就业,但效果受限。
A double hurdle model of off-farm work participation and off-farm labour income was derived and estimated consistent with a farm household model.It was found that rationing and unexpected transaction costs inhibit farm households from participating in off-farm work.The 1992 and the Agenda 2000 CAP reforms are most likely to increase the off-farm employment of arable farm households, but its full effect cannot be realised because of inhibitions to enter off-farm activities.Household and farm characteristics have different impacts on off-farm work participation and on the level of off-farm labour income.
