A literature review of the connection between socialized agricultural services and smallholder farmers
The effective connection of socialized agricultural services with smallholder farmers is a crucial pathway for achieving agricultural modernization in China. Employing a systematic literature review approach, this study screens and analyzes domestic and international research since 1978 to explore the historical evolution, current challenges, and practical models of connecting socialized agricultural services with smallholder farmers. The study begins with a conceptual clarification, distinguishing "small peasants" from "smallholder farmers", and elucidates the connotations and functions of socialized agricultural services through theoretical lenses. Through case analyses of three models——land trusteeship, agricultural co-management, and joint tillage & planting——it identifies enhancing farmers' organizational capacity and closely addressing smallholders' needs as key to successful integration. However, challenges persist, including mismatches between supply and demand, high transaction costs, and the marginalization of smallholders by large-scale operators.
