Chinese Rural Economy,2015,No. 07

Based on micro-data of 1024 peasant households in three provincial regions of Inner Mongolia, Ningxia and Shandong, this paper takes small-scale farmland water conservancy facilities as an example, uses the sample selection model, and empirically analyzes the effects of social trust and the relationship network on peasant households’ participation in the supply of rural public goods. It shows that the peasant households that are willing to participate in the supply of small-scale farmland water conservancy facilities account for 65% of the total, 68% of which choose to participate in the supply by the way of investment. Social trust and the relationship network play a significant role in promoting farmers to participate in the supply, and make peasant households tend to participate in the supply by the way of labor input. Among various variables in social trust and the relationship network, general trust significantly promotes peasant households’ willingness in participating in the supply, and makes peasant households tend to participate in the supply by the way of labor input; however, special trust has an opposite effect on the supply, which is not significant. General network significantly promotes peasant households’ willingness in participating in the supply, and makes peasant households tend to participate in the supply by the way of labor input, while the kinship network has a significant prohibitive effect on peasant households’ willingness in participating in the supply, but does not have a significant impact on peasant households’ ways of participation in the supply. Further marginal effect analysis shows that an increase of 1 level of social trust leads to an increase of 6.9% of the probability that peasant households are willing to participate in the supply, and a decrease of 6.4% of the probability that they choose to participate in the supply by the way of investment; and an increase of 1 level of the relationship network leads to an increase of 4.9% of the probability that peasant households are willing to participate in the supply, and a decrease of 5.5% of the probability that they choose to participate in the supply by the way of investment.
