英文文献摘要:
This paper explores the dynamics of rBST adoption using panel data from Wisconsin dairy farmers that span the period from its commercial introduction in 1994 to 2001. The panel data allow an examination of a broader range of adoption behavior that includes disadoption, early and late adoption, as well as persistent non-adoption. The data also permit attention to endogeneity concerns that arise in cross-sectional analyses of technology adoption, where potential predictors are also choice variables. Differences in both complementary technology use and farm size are identified as key predictors of adoption behavior, as are farmer attitudes toward this controversial technology.
本文利用威斯康辛州奶农从1994年rBST商业引入到2001年期间的面板数据,探讨了rBST采用的动态。小组数据允许对更广泛的收养行为进行审查,包括中止收养、早期收养和晚期收养,以及持续不收养。这些数据还允许人们注意在技术采用的横断面分析中出现的内生性问题,其中潜在的预测因素也是选择变量。互补技术的使用和农场规模的差异被认为是领养行为的关键预测因素,还有农民对这一有争议的技术的态度。
