摘要简单翻译：

中国的小型农业生产者在提高生产率和效率方面面临许多挑战。近年来，中国政府为农民专业合作社提供了支持，以将小型农场与食品供应链中的上下游流程联系起来。这项研究结合了倾向得分匹配和样本选择校正的随机生产前沿分析，以估算温室蔬菜生产者参与农民专业合作社对技术效率和收入的影响。结果表明，农民专业合作社帮助参与者提高了规模收益以及土地和劳动力的边际收益，提高了技术效率，并且每个温室的收入比非参与者增加了4,460元（18％）。

Abstract

China’s small-scale agricultural producers face many challenges to increasing productivity and efficiency. In recent years, the Chinese government has provided support for farmer professional cooperatives (FPCs) to connect small farms with upstream and downstream processes in the food supply chain. This study combines propensity score matching and sample selection-corrected stochastic production frontier analysis to estimate the impacts of FPC participation by greenhouse vegetable producers on technical efficiency and income. Results indicate that FPCs help participants improve returns to scale and marginal returns to land and labor, increase technical efficiency, and obtain ¥4,460 (18%) greater income per greenhouse than nonparticipants.
