Willingness to Accept Compensation for Ambient Large-scale Broiler Farm Air Pollution
Abstract
With
the
development
of
agricultural
industrialization,
the
environmental
issues
of
intensive
animal
farming
attract
more
and
more
attention.
Using
the
survey
data
from
313
Chinese
households
living
nearby
large-scale
broiler
farms
of
an
international
food
company,
this
paper
quantifies
the
willingness
to
accept
(WTA)
for
air
pollution
compensation
scheme
using
contingent
valuation
method
(CVM)
and
discrete
choice
experiment
(DCE).
We
find
that:
(1)
42%
of
respondents
has
a
non-cash
WTA
or
a
positive
infinity
WTA,
so
the
conventional
CVM
is
not
suitable
to
be
applied
to
them.
(2)
The
results
of
multinomial
logit
model
show
that
the
(actual
or
virtual)
distance
to
the
nearest
farm
has
a
significantly
non-linear
effect
on
the
compensation
type
choice.
To
be
specific,
the
nearest
and
farthest
households
are
less
likely
to
accept
the
cash
compensation.
Without
other
possible
non-cash
alternative
compensation
available,
they
only
accept
in
the
case
that
the
payment
is
prohibitively
high.
(3)
For
the
households
who
have
regular
cash
WTA,
the
further
the
actual
distance,
the
lower
the
WTA
as
expected.
(4)
The
results
of
DCE
show
that,
for
the
group
who
has
infinity
WTA,
alternative
non-cash
compensation
options
work
at
a
much
higher
cost.
In
the
perspective
of
global
value
chain,
it
is
very
meaningful
to
study
the
non-cash
compensation
strategies
to
explore
the
sustainable
development
strategy
of
multinational
corporations.
