Willingness of land operators to participate in government-sponsored soil erosion control programs
Abstract Data were collected in 1986 from 552 landowners who were operating farms in erosion-prone areas of six Ohio counties. The purpose of the study was to identify predictive factors associated with willingness to participate in two types of soil conservation programs. Willingness to participate in an interest buy-down program was assessed using a three item index which evaluated support for the proposed conservation program. Willingness to sell private row-cropping rights to the federal government for permanent retirement of erosive land from agricultural production was also assessed. Multivariate regression analyses were used to examine the merits of a diffusion-farm structure perspective developed to guide the study. The findings revealed that 21.9% of the variance in the buy-down index and 21.5% of the variance in the purchase of the row-cropping rights factor were explained by the variables included in the model. The findings were basically consistent with theoretical expectations. Diffusion-type variables were shown to be the best predictors of willingness to participate in the government programs assessed.
