草原补奖政策背景下生计资本对牧户兼业行为的影响OA

The grassland subsidy and reward policy is an important instrument for protecting grassland ecosystems and safeguarding the livelihoods of herder households.However,existing studies have focused mainly on its effects on herder livelihoods,while relatively little attention has been given to how livelihood capital influences part time employment from the dual perspective of capital level and capital structure under the policy context.Based on questionnaire data collected from 1,042 herder households in Inner Mongolia,this study employed the entropy method to quantify livelihood capital and applied a Logistic regression model to examine how total livelihood capital,its dimensional components,and its structure composition affect part time on employment.The results showed that both the level and structure of livelihood capital significantly affected part time employment among herder households.At the aggregate level,higher total livelihood capital increased the likelihood of part time employment.At the dimensional level,human capital promoted part time employment,whereas natural capital,physical capital,and social capital had inhibitory effects.In terms of capital structure,a livelihood profile dominated by human capital was more conductive to part time employment.Heterogeneity analysis further showed that livelihood capital had a stranger positive effect on part time employment in pure pastoral areas than in agro pastoral areas.Compared with older generation herder households,livelihood capital had a greater promoting impact on part time employment among the younger generation,while it significantly restrained part time employment among middle generation households.In addition,livelihood capital had a stronger effect on households engaged in two part time activities than on those engaged in only one.
