The effect of farmers' cognition on cooperative participation willingness under the background of rural revitalization
The cooperative is an effective way to achieve industrial prosperity and rural revitalization, but the urgent problem is farmers’ unwillingness to participate in cooperatives. Based on the theory of planned behavior, this paper discusses the influence mechanism of farmers’ cognition on cooperative participation willingness from dimensions of behavioral attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavior control, and makes an empirical test with the micro survey data of Guangxi province in 2021. The results show that: firstly, behavioral attitude, namely, the cognition of cooperative profits, product and prospect, significantly improves the participation willingness, and has a greater impact on the farmers with high participation willingness. Moreover, the effect of profits cognition and product cognition is stronger than that of prospect cognition. Secondly, subjective norms, namely, trust in enterprises of cooperatives, also plays a significant promoting role, which is stronger among households with low participation willingness. Thirdly, perceived behavioral control, namely, the experience of participating in cooperatives during the struggle against poverty, has no significant effect. The conclusions above provide useful enlightenment for the formulation of cooperative policies under the background of rural revitalization.
