Abstract: In this paper, we use Chinese Social Survey (CSS) (2015) data to examine the influence of offspring education on the subjective well-being of farmers in China with the gologit method. We also test this relationship after accounting for the importance of farmers’ sense of equity regarding urban-rural, regional differences. Our analysis implies that to some extent offspring education has a positive association with farmers’ subjective well-being. Specifically, farmers with more educated children are more likely to have a positive outlook on life. Moreover, regional differences and farmers’ sense of fairness between urban and rural areas also affect the subjective well-being of farmers.
