Abstract: At present, the vast majority of Chinese farmers’ income comes from factor income. The distortion of factor market affects the sustainable growth of farmers’ income and the optimization of income structure to a certain extent. The development of factor market is particularly important to solve the problem of increasing farmers’ income. Based on the panel data of 28 provinces (cities, autonomous regions) in China from 1997 to 2021, this study constructs a spatial panel model to empirically analyze the spatial impact of the three major factor market distortions on Farmers’ income growth. The results show that Chinese farmers’ income has a strong spatial dependence, and there is a significant spatial correlation effect in different regions. There are serious market distortions, which have significantly hindered the growth of farmers’ income. The distortion of China’s factor market not only inhibits the growth of farmers’ income in this region, but also has a significant negative spatial spillover effect. The distortion of factor market restricts the improvement of farmers’ income in adjacent areas. In the future, we need to further straighten out the influencing factors and give full play to the income increasing efficiency of various factors.
