一套改良的水稻管理措施，即水稻强化栽培系统（SRI）的产量潜力已引起人们的广泛关注。然而，令人惊讶的是，我们对SRI的社会经济影响知之甚少。本研究利用2009年印度尼西亚的数据，评估了SRI对家庭收入和儿童上学的影响。我们发现，SRI产生显着的估计收益。然而，由于社会责任投资导致家庭劳动力从非农业转移到农业，社会责任投资的使用者没有享受到家庭收入的增加。尽管农业劳动力需求增加，我们发现没有证据表明SRI有童工的影响。
The yield potential of a set of improved rice management practices, known as the System of Rice Intensification (SRI), has attracted much attention. Yet we know surprisingly little about SRI's socio-economic impact. Using data from Indonesia in 2009, this study assesses the impact of SRI on household incomes and child schooling. We find that SRI generates significant estimated yield gains. However, because SRI induces a reallocation of family labor from non-farm to farm, SRI users enjoy no household income gains. Despite the increased labor demand for farming, we find no evidence that SRI has a child labor effect.
