Farmers may vary in their response to or anticipation of agrifood market changes, which probably depends on their entrepreneurial degree and networks. This paper aims to investigate the effects of farmers’ entrepreneurial degree and network content (i.e., business ties, technology ties, and network heterogeneity) on farm performance (i.e., innovative performance and financial performance). The data set was gathered through a survey of 262 vegetable farmers in West Java, Indonesia. Our findings reveal that more entrepreneurial farmers (106) have more business ties, technology ties, and heterogeneous networks compared to less entrepreneurial farmers (156). Further analyses using OLS regression confirm that farmers who are more entrepreneurial and have more business ties obtain both enhanced innovative and financial performance, while farmers who link to heterogeneous networks obtain only enhanced innovative performance. Overall, the findings of this study demonstrate that more entrepreneurial farmers with networks that are rich in business ties and diverse contacts have better farm performance.

农民对农产品市场变化的反应或预期可能有所不同，这可能取决于他们的创业程度和网络。本文旨在调查农民的创业程度和网络内容（即业务关系，技术关系和网络异质性）对农场绩效（即创新绩效和财务绩效）的影响。该数据集是通过对印度尼西亚西爪哇省262位菜农的调查收集的。我们的发现表明，与较少的企业家农民（156）相比，更多的企业家农民（106）具有更多的业务联系，技术联系和异构网络。使用OLS回归进行的进一步分析证实，具有更多创业精神和更多业务联系的农民可以获得增强的创新和财务绩效，而链接到异构网络的农民只能获得增强的创新绩效。总的来说，这项研究的结果表明，拥有更多商业联系和多样化联系的企业家型农场主具有更好的农场表现。
