现有关于农地产权归属对农地流转影响的研究没有考虑农地的地块特征，无法有效识别农地产权归属与农地流转之间的因果关系。在理论分析的基础上，基于地块层面的微观调查数据，采用工具变量（IV）和条件混合过程（CMP）方法缓解模型中的内隐问题，并进行定量分析。结果表明，土地所有权制度对农地流转有显著的正向影响。通过异质性检验，我们观察到在经济发展水平较高的地区和政府促进的农地流转交易中，促进效应更为明显。中介效应模型的进一步应用表明，土地所有权制度通过增加农地价值和降低交易成本，增加了农地流转的净收益，从而促进了农地流转。研究结果有助于为政府如何促进和支持农地规模经营提供经验证据。
Existing literature about the impact of farmland titling on farmland transfer takes no account of farmland plot characteristics, which makes them unable to effectively identify the causal relationship between farmland titling and farmland transfer. After the theoretical analysis, based on land plot level micro-survey data, we adopt the instrumental variable (IV) and conditional mixed process (CMP) methods to ease the endogeneity problem in the model and conduct a quantitative analysis. The results show that the land titling program has significant and positive effects on the transfer-out of farmland. Through a heterogeneity test, we observe a more pronounced promotional effect in regions with a higher economic development level and in farmland transfer deals with government facilitation. Moreover, the further application of a mediating effect model shows that the land titling program increases the net income from farmland transfer-out through increasing the value of farmland and reducing the transaction costs, thus promoting the transferring out of farmland. The findings contribute to providing empirical evidence for how the government may facilitate and support the attaining of more efficient scale operations of farmland.
