TL;DR
This study explores how farmers' behaviors and factors like education and incentives influence crop-pollination service management to support sustainable agriculture.
Contribution
A novel application of the theory of planned behavior to identify causal configurations for improving crop-pollination service management.
Findings
Education level and agricultural acreage are positively correlated with crop-pollination service management.
Three causal configurations enhance CPSM: AT & PBC, AT & Economic Incentive, and PBC & Economic Incentive.
An optimal state of CPSM requires at least an economic incentive of $1900.27.
Abstract
As the crisis of crop-pollination service increasingly gains global attention, improving crop-pollination service management (CPSM) has become a key challenge to achieve sustainable agriculture and safeguard food supply. Given that farmers are directly responsible for making decisions and managing agriculture, strategies for promoting CPSM should consider their perceptions, knowledge and role in enhancing pollination. A survey of 267 randomly selected smallholder farmers in Dengkou County was conducted to create and evaluate an integrated index for assessing on-farm pollination management among farmers, and to explore how key factors, grounded in the extending the theory of planned behavior (TPB), can influence their CPSM behaviors. The data is analyzed by using regression analysis, necessary condition analysis, fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (NCA-fsQCA), and independent…
