Replication Data for: Farmer Differentiation, Inter-Generational Differences and Chemical Fertilizer Reduction Behavior of Farmers in Rural China

This dataset originates from a large-scale field survey of rice-farming households conducted in Jiangxi Province, China, from November 2022 to August 2023. To ensure scientific rigor, a multi-stage stratified random sampling strategy (based on per capita GDP) was employed across 30 counties, yielding 1,345 valid household observations through face-to-face structured interviews. Given Jiangxi's prominent role as a major rice-producing region and its recent policy focus on agricultural green development, this dataset provides a highly representative micro-level foundation. It is primarily used to analyze farmers' green production behaviors, specifically focusing on the reduction of chemical inputs and their environmental and economic effects in agriculture.
