Evaluation of farmers’ subjective willingness to protect important agricultural heritage systems: A case study of the Dike-Pond Agricultural System, Foshan, Guangdong

摘要: 农户是重要农业文化遗产保护多方参与机制中的重要组成部分, 考察和评价农户保护重要农业文化遗产的主观意愿, 对指导重要农业文化遗产的保护和可持续发展具有深远意义。基于情境互动下农户参与遗产保护的分析框架, 本文以中国重要农业文化遗产——广东佛山基塘农业系统为例, 采用Q方法进行研究设计, 通过与调查对象进行深度访谈后邀请调查对象自愿对遗产保护Q陈述进行排序。结果显示: 1) PQ Method 2.35软件提取了F1、F2、F3和F4共4个具有代表性因子, 其特征根分别是10.334、4.028、2.741和1.891, 经因子旋转4个因子均被接受解释。根据各因子得分将农户保护意愿划分为潜在保护意愿导向型、回避保护意愿导向型、原生保护意愿导向型和开发保护意愿导向型共4种类型。2)受访对象保护遗产意愿与其年龄、学历和是否务农的关系较为密切。其中老年小农户主要持低保护意愿, 而大规模养殖农户主要是潜在保护意愿群体。3)不同保护意愿的农户在认知、态度和行为3个方面存在明显差异。持原生保护意愿和开发保护意愿的农户对遗产保护认知较高, 不同的是两者注重的保护方式不同。持回避保护意愿的农户不关注遗产保护, 强调政府作用, 其中弱认知和生计困境是导致其低保护意愿的主要原因。基于此, 为了提高遗产地农户保护遗产意愿, 发挥农户参与保护基塘农业系统的主体作用, 建议提高整体农户对重要农业文化遗产的认识、强化遗产地农户生计保障措施、激发潜在保护意愿农户的保护潜能和提升农户参与遗产保护的能力。

Abstract: Farmers play an essential role in multi-stakeholder collaborative mechanisms for the protection of important agricultural heritage systems. Investigating and evaluating the subjective willingness of farmers to protect agricultural heritage systems is of great significance for guiding the protection and sustainable development of important agricultural heritage systems. However, insufficient farmer participation has caused heritage protection to face various practical challenges, and it is necessary to study the subjective willingness of farmers. Using the analytical framework of farmers’ participation in heritage protection under situational interaction, this study employed the Dike-Pond Agricultural System in Foshan, Guangdong (one of China’s Nationally Important Agricultural Heritage Systems) as an example and adopted the Q methodology for research design. Farmers were invited to rank the Q statements of heritage protection voluntarily after in-depth interviews. The Q-Sorts data were analyzed using the PQ Method 2.35 software, and the cognition, emotion, attitude, and behavior of farmers with different protection intentions were further discussed and compared. The results showed the following: 1) The software extracted four representative factors. Their eigenvalues were 10.334, 4.028, 2.741, and 1.891, and four factors were accepted and interpreted after factor rotation. According to the scores of each statement, farmers’ protection willingness was divided into four types: potential protection willingness oriented, avoidance protection willingness oriented, native protection willingness oriented, and development protection willingness oriented. 2) The willingness of farmers to protect the heritage was closely related to their age, educational background, and work in agriculture. Among them, elderly small-scaled farmers mainly have low protection willingness, while large-scaled farmers were groups with potential protection willingness. 3) There were obvious differences in the three aspects of cognition, attitude, and behavior among farmers with different degrees of willingness to protect. Native protection willingness-oriented and development protection willingness-oriented farmers had a higher awareness of heritage protection than the other farmers, but the difference was that they focused on different protection methods. Avoidance protection willingness-oriented farmers did not pay attention to heritage protection and emphasized the role of the government. Among them, weak cognition and livelihood difficulties were the main reasons for farmers’ low willingness to protect. The innovative aspect of this study was to comprehensively use qualitative and quantitative methods of Q methodology to design research to explore farmers’ willingness to protect from their subjective vocabulary and summarize and analyze different protection willingness types. To increase the willingness of farmers to protect heritage sites and fulfill their role in protecting the Dike-Pond Agricultural System, it is necessary to improve farmers’ understanding of important agricultural heritage systems, strengthen the livelihood guarantees for farmers in heritage areas, stimulate the protection potential of farmers with potential protection willingness, and enhance their ability to participate in heritage protection. -
