| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The development of a well-functioning land rental market is one of the most feasible means to increase factor allocation and raise the efficiency of land use in rural China. The major purpose of this research project is to examine efficient mechanical design of farmland transaction contract to facilitate land rental market. To achieve the goal, we have conducted large-scale rural household survey in Sichuan province, and have examined the determinants of rent-in/rent-out decisions and the level of rental fee. The estimated results show that the characteristics of rent-out households such as the share of off-farm employment, farmland size, educational achievement significantly increase the probability of rent-out decisions. In addition, the estimated results indicate that the amounts of rental fee are determined significantly by the factors such as farmland quality, policy intervened transaction, written contract and type of tenant.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究課題による研究成果の学術的・社会的意義として（1）中国の農業主産地の農家に対して仮想的な地代に関する選択実験をすることで、農地貸借の供給・需要関数の推計とその決定容認が検証可能となり、地方政府による農地流動化政策の経済効果を定量的に実証したこと、（2）農地貸借の契約デザインに関するフィールド実験を行うことで、農地の貸し手・借り手が選好するような賃貸契約の構造推計が可能となるとともに、貸し手と借り手をより効率的にマッチングし、取引費用の削減をもたらすような契約デザインを提起することが可能となった点が挙げられる。
