Asian Agricultural Research, 2018, vol. 10, issue 09

Abstract: Based on the threshold panel data model, this paper analyzed the nonlinear relationship between chemical fertilizer input and grain output. At the provincial level, from the perspective of average and marginal net benefits, it compared the effects of chemical fertilizer input on farmers’ income. It reached the conclusion that the chemical fertilizer input efficiency has deviated from the optimal level. Thus, only by increasing the marginal productivity of chemical fertilizers, may it be able to increase farmers’ income.
