Abstract：
Agricultural social services (ASS) play an important role in improving the efficiency of agricultural operations, reducing agricultural production costs, and promoting sustainable agricultural development. Using data from the 2020 China Rural Revitalization Survey, this study analyzes the impact of ASS on reducing pesticide inputs. The results show: (1) ASS play a significantly positive role in reducing pesticide inputs. (2) Heterogeneity analyses show that ASS\' role in reducing pesticide inputs is stronger for farming households with small farms, which participate in cooperatives, and do not have members involved in non-farm employment than that for farming households with large farms, which do not participate in cooperatives, and have members involved in non-farm employment. (3) Mechanism analysis shows that ASS\' green perception and demonstration-led effects contribute to reducing pesticide inputs by 148.6% and 36.8%, respectively, at the 1% level. Finally, this study proposes relevant policy recommendations for promoting ASS, promoting the continuous operation of farmland, and encouraging farmers to participate in ASS.
摘要：
农业社会服务(ASS)在提高农业经营效率方面发挥着重要作用,降低农业生产成本，促进农业可持续发展。利用2020年中国乡村振兴调查数据，本研究分析了ASS对减少农药投入的影响。结果表明:(1)ASS对降低农药投入具有显著的正向作用。(2)异质性分析表明，对于拥有小农场的农户，ASS在减少农药投入方面的作用更强。参与合作社，与拥有大农场的农户相比，没有参与非农业就业的成员，不参与合作社，并有成员参与非农就业。（3）机理分析表明，ASS'绿色感知和示范带动效应有助于减少148.6％和36.8％的农药投入，分别,1%的水平。最后,这项研究提出了促进ASS的相关政策建议，促进农田的持续经营，并鼓励农民参与ASS。
