本文报道了一项研究，该研究提供了对风险偏好和其他因素如何影响农民参与碳抵消市场的决定的理解。它指出，在实验室环境中纳入背景风险，并从标准的学生群体和非标准的农民群体中抽取受试者，有助于理解决策过程。这项研究表明，农民比学生更倾向于规避风险。
The article reports on a study that provides understanding of how risk preferences and other factors influence a farmer's decision to participate in a carbon offset market. It states incorporating background risk in a laboratory setting and drawing subjects from both a standard student population and a nonstandard farmer population helped to understand the decision making process. The study suggests that farmers are slightly more risk averse than students.
