Stable land rights can increase farmers' expectations regarding the future and encourage their adoption of green production methods, which is an important guarantee for promoting the development of green agriculture development. This paper takes the fertilizer use as an example and systematically investigated the impact of land tenure stability on the green production behavior of heterogeneous farmers based on a field survey data of 349 cotton-planting farmers from Xinjiang, China. Furthermore, this research aims to assess the differential impact of land tenure stability on different risk preferences, organizational forms and ethnic groups. This study is a continuation of previous studies on factors influencing green production behavior. The results show that land transfers have an inhibiting effect on farmers' green production behavior and this effect is more significant among risk-averse farmers, local farmers and minority nationalities farmers. The land tenure period can promote the green production of farmers and alleviate the restraining effect of land transfers on farmers' green production behavior. Additionally, farmers of Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps (XPCC) and large-scale households are more inclined to green production. The Chinese Government needs to further promote land transfer to large-scale households, improve the stability of land rights and adopt differentiated policies for heterogeneous farmers to encourage their green production.
稳定的土地权可以增加农民对未来的期望，并鼓励他们采用绿色生产方法，这是促进绿色农业发展的重要保障。本文以肥料使用为例，基于中国新疆 349 名棉花种植户的实地调查数据，系统研究了土地保有权稳定对异质农民绿色生产行为的影响。此外，本研究旨在评估土地保有权稳定对不同风险偏好、组织形式和民族群体的差异影响。本研究是对影响绿色生产行为因素的进一步研究。结果表明，土地流转对农民的绿色生产行为有抑制作用，这种抑制作用在风险厌恶型农民、本地农民和少数民族农民中更为明显。土地保有权期限可以促进农民的绿色生产，缓解土地流转对农民绿色生产行为的抑制作用。此外，新疆生产建设兵团（XPCC）的农民和大规模农户更倾向于绿色生产。中国政府需要进一步推动土地向大规模农户流转，提高土地权的稳定性，并对异质农民采取差异化政策，鼓励他们进行绿色生产。
