“…Expropriation of land sometimes results in the loss of properties and livelihood of those affected expropriated landholders [3,16,24,26,43]. Furthermore, relative to urban residents, expropriated landholders in remote rural areas have unequal access to public services and social security [44]. Farmers who have lost their land are having a difficult time seeking jobs [45].…”

In Ethiopia, expropriation and compensation measures have become a great concern due to horizontal urban expansion and development induced projects. Especially in peri-urban areas, the livelihood of farmers is affected by expropriation without fair and comparable compensation. This paper investigates the impacts of expropriation and compensation activities on livelihood of peri-urban smallholders taking Debre Markos Town as a case study area. Mixed research methods were employed. Quantitative data were gathered using a structured questionnaire and by interviewing about 100 smallholders. Qualitative data were collected in focus group discussions and by analyzing legal documents. The analysis showed a high trend of expropriation without fair and appropriate compensation as result of ignoring legal procedures of expropriation and compensation. Expropriated farmers also complained that they did not get any support from the government to use compensation money properly for further investments. Due to incomparable compensation and lack of advice, peri-urban farmers faced multi-faceted problems, such as food insecurity and social and family disintegration. The government has to enable families of expropriated households to earn suitable livelihood, which could be achieved by fair compensation and appropriate guidance.

“…Generally, entrepreneurship can be understood as the process of perceiving the opportunity, integrating resources, and establishing a new company (Sexton and Bowman, 1985). Entrepreneurship is a complicated concept that has no indisputable standard definition (Bao et al, 2020). For example, a study defined the land-lost farmer entrepreneurship as being concentrated in the service industry (Bao and Peng, 2016).…”

“…In addition, some representative theories have been developed to examine entrepreneurial intention and entrepreneurial action such as Entrepreneurial Event Theory (Zhang et al, 2014;Davids, 2017). A study from Zhejiang Province, one of China's developed provinces, proposed that many land-lost farmers were forced to conduct entrepreneurship (Bao and Peng, 2016;Bao et al, 2020).…”

“…The newly revised Land Administration Law of the People's Republic of China, which came into effect on 1 January 2020, once again clarified the principle of compensation for land expropriation. The development-oriented compensation, that promotes employment through entrepreneurship, is the effective way to solve the long-term livelihood of land-lost farmers (Han et al, 2017;Bao et al, 2020). Individuals derive greater wellbeing from working for themselves or for someone else (La Guardia et al, 2000;Stephan et al, 2022).…”

China’s traditional suburban urbanization pattern of “passively being centralized upstairs” is not ideal, so China has been implementing human-centered new urbanization and urban–rural integration development strategy. Promoting employment through entrepreneurship is an effective way to solve the problem of long-term livelihood of land-lost farmers in China. There are few studies on entrepreneurship of land-lost farmers with the background of in situ urbanization in the suburbs. Based on the field survey data of two suburban villages representing the low–medium level of development in China, this study takes entrepreneurship of suburban youth as the research object and uses Logistic and Mlogit models to investigate the influences of psychological states of suburban youth on their entrepreneurship and the different entrepreneurial status during in situ urbanization pattern from three aspects. The results show that under in situ urbanization pattern, the psychological states of suburban youth have significant and steady influences on their entrepreneurial behaviors. Moreover, the satisfaction degree of land expropriation compensation has a partial mediation effect on suburban youth’s judgment of future life. There are different effects of the three psychological states on the two entrepreneurial states. Therefore, urban governments at all levels in China should choose the suburban urbanization pattern according to local conditions and time changes and realize sustainable entrepreneurship of suburban land-lost farmers during their becoming citizens with keeping nostalgia.

“…The reason why farmers’ entrepreneurship is different from ordinary entrepreneurial activities lies in the peculiarities of farmers’ entrepreneurs, the rural environment, and the heterogeneity of the dynamic capabilities formed by the interaction between the two ( Piras et al, 2021 ). In the process of entrepreneurship, farmers’ characteristics, organizational regulations, and entrepreneurial environment can have a driving effect on entrepreneurial behavior ( Bao et al, 2020 ). Previous scholars have showed that the general external environment, family environment, and personal qualities have a greater impact on farmers’ entrepreneurial behavior ( Brush et al, 2008 ; Liao and Welsch, 2008 ).…”

Individual entrepreneurial behaviors will be affected by their attitudes and environmental factors. Therefore, entrepreneurial attitude and entrepreneurial environment interpret the entrepreneurial behavior mechanism of farmers from the perspectives of internal and external factors. This manuscript is based on a survey data of farmers in five western provinces in China. Using structural equation modeling, the mechanism of the effects of farmers’ entrepreneurial attitudes and entrepreneurial environment on entrepreneurial behavior was analyzed empirically. The research results show that individual entrepreneurial attitudes and the external entrepreneurial environment cannot directly affect entrepreneurial behavior, and both will be through entrepreneurial self-efficacy. The sense of entrepreneurship indirectly affects entrepreneurial behavior, and entrepreneurial self-efficacy plays an intermediary role. The “entrepreneurial behavior structure” model proposed in this manuscript points out that cultivating entrepreneurial attitudes and creating an entrepreneurial environment cannot directly promote entrepreneurial behavior of farmers, but must stimulate farmers’ entrepreneurial behavior. The sense of self-efficacy provides a direction for the promotion of policy formulation and practical guidance for farmers’ entrepreneurship.
