| Abstract: |
| Based on 491 survey data in Sichuan Province, the influence of guiding regulations, incentive regulations and restraining regulations on the utilization behavior of pig farmers' manure resources was analyzed by using multivariate ordered Logistic model. The results show that：the resource utilization rate of pig farmers in the sample area is low and only 30.96% of the farmers are fully resource treatment. The main resource treatment method is biogas fermentation and the vast majority of the non-resource treatment methods use direct return to the field. The environmental regulations of manure treatment for pig farmers are relatively weak and there are still problems such as incomplete coverage of training, small amount of subsidies and lack of supervision and inspection. Guiding regulations, incentive regulations and restraining regulations all have significant positive impacts on the utilization of manure resources by pig farmers and there is heterogeneity in farming scale and regional heterogeneity. Farmers' education, party membership, risk preference, as well as the number of years of farming and the share of farming income, all had a significant positive effect on their manure resource utilization behavior. Based on this, the government should strengthen the knowledge propaganda and technical training on the utilization of fecal waste resources, increase the subsidies for fecal waste treatment and the supervision and inspection, and implement environmental regulations according to the conditions of the farms, so as to improve the level of fecal waste utilization and promote the green development of the pig industry. |
