Abstract:
This paper analyzes the performance of agriculture subsidy policy through both theoretical and empirical approaches. The results show that the effects of yield increase vary greatly by introducing different subsidy measures. The effect of income-oriented subsidy is more efficient than that of production-oriented subsidy. Moreover, grain direct subsidy functions better than agriculture means of production subsidy although both of them belong to income-oriented subsidies. Based on the above analysis, it is concluded that the subsidy structure in agriculture shall be optimized to improve the effect of grain yield. At last, the paper brought forward countermeasures for government, such as defining subsidy goals, increasing the total sum of subsidy, strengthening subsidy management and improving the supporting policies, etc.
