为了研究退耕还林农户经营非木质林产品的技术效率,该文利用四川省雅安市235户退耕还林农户经营非木质林产品的投入产出数据,考虑农户经营非木质林产品的技术异质性,以种苗投入强度和劳动力投入强度作为技术类别的条件变量,建立超越对数形式的潜类别随机前沿模型,分析退耕还林农户经营不同类别非木质林产品的技术效率,结果表明,退耕还林农户经营的非木质林产品存在林下养殖与药材类、水果与木本药材类、林下粮菜类、干果类4个技术类别,各技术类别的技术效率从高到低依次为林下养殖与药材类、水果与木本药材类、干果类和林下粮菜类,要素投入产出弹性不同是农户经营非木质林产品分成不同技术类别的主要原因。研究结果可为保持或促进退耕还林工程的成果提供依据。
為瞭研究退耕還林農戶經營非木質林產品的技術效率,該文利用四川省雅安市235戶退耕還林農戶經營非木質林產品的投入產齣數據,攷慮農戶經營非木質林產品的技術異質性,以種苗投入彊度和勞動力投入彊度作為技術類彆的條件變量,建立超越對數形式的潛類彆隨機前沿模型,分析退耕還林農戶經營不同類彆非木質林產品的技術效率,結果錶明,退耕還林農戶經營的非木質林產品存在林下養殖與藥材類、水果與木本藥材類、林下糧菜類、榦果類4箇技術類彆,各技術類彆的技術效率從高到低依次為林下養殖與藥材類、水果與木本藥材類、榦果類和林下糧菜類,要素投入產齣彈性不同是農戶經營非木質林產品分成不同技術類彆的主要原因。研究結果可為保持或促進退耕還林工程的成果提供依據。

The Sloping Land Conversion Program (SLCP) was launched by the Chinese government in 1999 with environmental goals of reducing soil erosion and desertification and increasing the country’s forest and grassland cover by retiring steeply sloping and marginal land from agricultural production. The SLCP has converted 8.20 million hectares of cropland to forest, and more than 32 million households participated in SLCP through the end of 2007. According to the article 4 in SLCP Regulation, the ecological service is the first principle of SLCP. Therefore, the non-timber forest products (NTFPs) management is one of the land-use options that SLCP households might choose. Generally, there are two alternatives of NTFPs management, one is the commercial forests management, including fruit trees, nut fruit trees, tea, woody medicine, etc.; the other is understory planting and livestock breeding in the understory, including grains, vegetables, grass, fungus, medicine, chicks, etc. The technical efficiency will be different if SLCP households adopt different NTFPs management options. The objective of this paper is to analyze the technical efficiency of households’ NTFPs management considering the different management options. Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) is one of the approaches for technical efficiency analysis, which assumes that the production technology is the same for all production units. However, there are some unobserved differences in technology that might be inappropriately labeled as inefficiency if such variations in technology are not taken into account. Therefore, we use a latent class stochastic frontier model (LCSFM) combined with the SFA and a latent class structure to account for this heterogeneity. The Trans-log function is adopted in LCSFM finally through a series test, and the seedling and labor input are considered as the criteria of technology class. The empirical analysis is conducted by using 235 households’ survey data from Ya’an City Sichuan Province, and some important results are revealed. First, there are four technical classes on the different technology frontier and the technical efficiency of them can be listed in the descending order, i.e. class of livestock breeding and medicine in the understory, class of fruit and woody medicine, class of grains and vegetables in the understory, and class of nut fruit,. Secondly, the technical efficiency of all households’ NTFPs management increased from 0.5393 in 2008 to 0.5572 in 2011. Except for the class of grains and vegetables in the understory, all other classes showed the same increase trend. To that end, we estimated the factors’ elasticity of different classes, and held that it is the elasticity different that explains why SLCP households are divided into different classes. Therefore, some policy implications are given in order to improve the technical efficiency of SLCP households’ NTFPs management. First, the government should actively disseminate forestry technology information and train the farmers through different channels. Secondly, the R&D activities and forestry machinery popularization should be promoted, because mechanization greatly contributes to the forestland productivity. It is hoped that these efforts will be contributed to improve the SLCP.
