The potential drivers of grassland rent-in across the ecosystem types in Inner Mongolia are poorly understood. This study employed a methodology that integrates socioeconomic characteristics, ecological factors, and risk perception of herders into a framework to assess the influencing factors of the area of grassland rent-in by households. Also, we examine how the size of rented grassland influences herders’ production and income characteristics and tested the relationship between households’ herd structure and livestock production. Results show that the less area of grassland owned, the lower the household head's age was, and a decline in the time invested in other nongrazing activities leads to the rent-in of higher grassland area. Additionally, higher living expenses, loan income, and the frequency of snow disaster compel herders to rent-in more grassland areas. Compared with the “low-land-rent” households, the “high-land-rent” and “medium-land-rent” households had a lower stocking rate and higher total livestock income. A higher ratio of the different types of livestock in households’ herds increases livestock production efficiency. This study highlights the need for policies that could help alleviate household living and production-related risks such as preventive and rapid snow disaster control and reduction of living expenses. Also, the provision of long-term loans free from the recurrent debt cycle and incentives to lessees for land improvement during the tenancy period are viable strategies needed to promote a well-functioning grassland rental market.

内蒙古牧民影响草地租金的社会生态因素和风险感知

人们对内蒙古不同生态系统类型的草地租金的潜在驱动因素知之甚少。这项研究采用了一种方法,该方法将社会经济特征,生态因素和对牧民的风险感知整合到一个框架中,以评估家庭对草地租用面积的影响因素。此外,我们研究了租用草地的面积如何影响牧民的生产和收入特征,并检验了家庭牧群结构与牲畜生产之间的关系。结果表明,拥有的草地面积越少,户主的年龄越低,而在其他非放牧活动上投入的时间减少,则导致更高的草地面积被出租。此外,生活费,贷款收入,雪灾的频发迫使牧民在更多的草原地区租地。与“低地租金”家庭相比,“高地租金”和“中地租金”家庭的放养率较低,牲畜总收入较高。家庭畜群中不同类型牲畜的比例较高,可以提高牲畜生产效率。这项研究强调了需要制定政策来帮助减轻家庭生活和与生产有关的风险,例如预防性和快速的雪灾控制以及生活费用的减少。同样,提供无周期性债务周期的长期贷款以及在租赁期内激励承租人土地改良是促进运作良好的草地租赁市场的可行战略。“高地租金”和“中地租金”家庭的放养率较低,牲畜总收入较高。家庭畜群中不同类型牲畜的比例较高,可以提高牲畜生产效率。这项研究强调了需要制定政策来帮助减轻家庭生活和与生产有关的风险,例如预防性和快速的雪灾控制以及生活费用的减少。同样,提供无周期性债务周期的长期贷款以及在租赁期内激励承租人土地改良是促进运作良好的草地租赁市场的可行战略。“高地租金”和“中地租金”家庭的放养率较低,牲畜总收入较高。家庭畜群中不同类型牲畜的比例较高,可以提高牲畜生产效率。这项研究强调了需要制定政策来帮助减轻家庭生活和与生产有关的风险,例如预防性和快速的雪灾控制以及生活费用的减少。同样,提供无周期性债务周期的长期贷款以及在租赁期内激励承租人土地改良是促进运作良好的草地租赁市场的可行战略。家庭畜群中不同类型牲畜的比例较高,可以提高牲畜生产效率。这项研究强调了需要制定政策来帮助减轻家庭生活和与生产有关的风险,例如预防性和快速的雪灾控制以及生活费用的减少。同样,提供无周期性债务周期的长期贷款以及在租赁期内激励承租人土地改良是促进运作良好的草地租赁市场的可行战略。家庭畜群中不同类型牲畜的比例较高,可以提高牲畜生产效率。这项研究强调了需要制定政策来帮助减轻家庭生活和与生产有关的风险,例如预防性和快速的雪灾控制以及生活费用的减少。同样,提供无周期性债务周期的长期贷款以及在租赁期内激励承租人土地改良是促进运作良好的草地租赁市场的可行战略。
