以前的研究表明，鼓励农业土地租赁有两个重要的先决条件：向外迁移和加强土地权利的安全性和可转让性。以后者为重点，我们仔细研究了旨在促进土地利用活力的制度的影响，特别是最近在中国农村地方一级成立的农村股份合作社（RSCs）。总的来说，我们发现区域合作伙伴关系可以为农地产权的延伸铺平道路，并促进更有效的土地利用模式。利用江苏省300个农村村委会的调查数据，我们估计了农村土地租赁制度在鼓励土地租赁方面的有效性。我们的分析表明，rsc可以作为中间代理，降低与土地使用权交换相关的交易成本，因此，不仅鼓励土地租赁/整合活动，而且还使非农业家庭实体能够进入农业业务。(C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd.版权所有。
Previous studies have demonstrated that there are two important preconditions for encouraging land rental in agriculture: out-migration and the enhancement of security and transferability of land rights. Focusing on the latter, we scrutinize the impacts of institutions aimed at facilitating land use dynamism, particularly the Rural Shareholding Cooperatives (RSCs), which have been established recently at the local level in rural China. In general, we find that RSCs can pave the way for the extension of property rights to farmland and promote more efficient land use patterns. Using survey data collected from 300 village committees in rural Jiangsu province, we estimate the effectiveness of RSCs in encouraging land rental. Our analysis reveals that RSCs can serve as intermediate agents for reducing transaction costs associated with exchange of land use rights and, thereby, not only encourage land rental/consolidation activities but also enable the entry of non-farm household entities into the farm business.
