“…The SPCS organizations have professional equipment and techniques, reasonable dispensing standards, and extensive knowledge of pest and disease control. As a result, it can effectively prevent and control pests and improve the control effect when conducting pest control and thereby reduce pesticide use intensity 21,52 . This result is generally consistent with the findings of Yan et al 12 .…”

BACKGROUNDAlthough a great deal of research has examined the impact of socialized pest control service, few studies have discussed the relationship between socialized pest control service and pesticide use intensity. In particular, the literature ignores the impact of advanced application technologies (drone sprayers) on the intensity of pesticide use by farmers.RESULTSBased on a survey of 1185 rice growers in Hubei Province, China, this study found that 64.13% of the sample farmers used pesticides more than three times in one rice season. Importantly, socialized pest control services have a significant negative effect on the pesticide use intensity of farmers. Compared to the sample that did not purchase the service, farmers who purchased socialized pest control services demonstrated 9.30% less pesticide intensity. Further, there was a significant difference among farmers using different application devices on pesticide use intensity. Compared to the sample using ground backpack sprayers, farmers using drone sprayers used 12.40% less pesticide intensity.CONCLUSIONThis study found that the frequency of pesticide use by farmers during rice cultivation was generally high. Socialized pest control services have played a positive role in reducing the intensity of pesticide use, especially with the more obvious pesticide reduction effect of the adoption of drone sprayers. Therefore, improving socialized pest control services and promoting advanced equipment such as drone sprayers may be an important way to reduce the use of pesticides in China. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

“…Combined with the concept of agricultural green development, the whole trusteeship of green agricultural production is a model in which the service subjects use green production technology to complete the whole process of agricultural production entrusted by farmers and other subjects in a relatively low-cost manner. The whole trusteeship of green agricultural production is an important link for service organizations to promote agricultural green development and consolidate black land protection by popularizing green production behavior [24]. The model of the whole trusteeship of green agricultural production also provides an effective reference for solving the problems of the low willingness of farmers to participate in black land protection and the difficulty of governments to promote black land protection policies [25].…”

The whole trusteeship of green agricultural production plays an important role in promoting the protection of black land, and it is particularly crucial to clarify the behavioral characteristics and game relationships of agents involved in the whole trusteeship. This study uses the dynamic evolutionary game method to construct a tripartite evolutionary game model of governments, service organizations and farmers participating in the whole trusteeship of green agricultural production, aiming to come up with effective strategies to promote the widespread application of green agricultural production trusteeship and achieve agricultural green development. The results are as follows: (1) At present, the agricultural production model in Northeast China is dominated by traditional agricultural production and supplemented by green agricultural production. (2) Incentive and punitive measures will encourage agents to adopt positive strategies. (3) In areas with a poor awareness of green agricultural production trusteeship, the government’s incentive and punishment measures for farmers and service organizations are imbalanced. (4) The relatively high cost of trusteeship leads to a lack of market competitiveness, which has a negative impact on service organizations promoting green agricultural production trusteeship. This study provides an effective reference for improving the overall implementation effect of black land protection in Northeast China.
