Interactions between social and land supports for elderlies under different family support functions

The problem of rural hollowing out and aging is becoming more and more serious. It not only limits the needs of the elderly in rural areas, but also inhibits the improvement of the efficiency of land resource allocation, which requires urgent attention. This paper systematically analyzes the influence and mechanism of China’s New Rural Pension Insurance (NRPI) on land transfer decision of farmers above 60 years old. Based on theoretical analysis, this paper uses four-period-data from China Health and Pension Tracking Survey (CHARLS) to make an empirical analysis by panel instrumental variable method. We can get three conclusions from the research. Firstly, NRPI promotes land transfer since it increases welfare, especially for families short of economic support. Secondly, when offspring provides economic support, the role of social pension in improving farmers’ welfare will be shortened due to the lack of life care, which leads to a difficult replacement for land pension. Thirdly, for families with perfect pension, social pension can replace land pension by reducing agricultural time and non-agricultural employment. The conclusions of this paper have important practical significance for improving the rural aged security system. It will be more helpful to improve the living standards of the elderly, if we pay more attention to the linkage mechanism of family aged security and social aged security and provide different policy support to different families.
