Abstract:

To stabilize the tobacco farmers’ team, guide the high-quality production of tobacco and promote the sustainable development of tobacco industry, the willingness of farmers to grow tobacco and its influencing factors were analyzed by using the two-factor Logistic model and the survey data of 242 tobacco farmers in three main flue-cured tobacco producing areas in Panzhihua City. The results show that the age of household head and the experience of participating in agricultural professional knowledge training have a positive and significant effect on tobacco farmers’ planting willingness, while whether farmers have concurrent employment, household size and income of non-tobacco crops have a negative and significant effect on tobacco farmers' planting willingness. It is suggested to strengthen the professional knowledge training, guide the specialized production of tobacco and optimize the rural agricultural population structure, which will be beneficial to positively motivating the enthusiasm of tobacco farmers in production, and then achieve the effect of continuous increase of farmers’ income and steady development of regional agriculture through planting cash crops.
