Exploring green grain production pathways: evidence from farmland and agricultural service scale operations in China by Guoying Han, Tongshan Liu

“…Specifically, a 1% increase in APS usage is associated with an average decrease of 0.93 CNY per mu in fertilizer costs and 0.07 CNY per mu in pesticide costs. (2) Moderate-scale farmland operations significantly and positively contribute to reducing agrochemical use. (3) Crop-specific analysis reveals that both APS and moderate-scale operations reduce pesticide use in wheat, rice, and maize production. …”
