چکیده

محصول سالم، محصولی است که با حداقل استفاده از نهاده­های شیمیایی تولید می­شود، به­طوری که خطری مصرف کننده این مواد غذایی را تهدید نمی­کند. هدف این مقاله، بررسی عوامل مؤثر بر پذیرش و عدم پذیرش کشت محصولات سالم در بین سبزی و صیفی کاران استان خوزستان و تعیین بهترین مدل تعیین کننده پذیرش است. مطالعه به روش پیمایشی و با استفاده از روش نمونه گیری طبقه بندی تصادفی غیر سهمیه­ای انجام گرفت. اطلاعات مورد نیاز از 170 نفر پذیرنده کشت محصول سالم و 170 نفر نپذیرنده، بوسیله پرسشنامه جمع آوری شد. نتایج نشان داد بین پذیرندگان و نپذیرندگان، از نظر؛ استفاده از منابع اطلاعاتی و دفعات مراجعه به مروج تفاوت آماری معنی­داری در سطح 1 درصد وجود دارد. همچنین، پذیرندگان کشت محصول سالم، نگرش مطلوب­تری نسبت به حفظ محیط زیست و کاربرد کمتر نهاده­های شیمیایی دارند، میزان آگاهی آنها از معایب کشاورزی متعارف نیز بیشتر است. یافته­ها نشان داد مدل چند بعدی بهترین مدل متمایزکننده پذیرندگان از نپذیرندگان است. پیشنهاد می­شود سیاست­گزاران با کاربرد مدل چند بعدی به کیفیت مسایل آموزشی بیشتر اهمیت داده و تصویب قوانین حمایت از تولید کنندگان محصولات سالم را مورد توجه قرار دهند.

چکیده [English]

A safety crop is defined by the matter produced with least chemical input (fertilizer) usage in order to have no risk for consumers. This study was done to investigate the factors affecting adoption and/or rejection of cultivating safety crops and to assign the best fitted model of adoption among vegetable growers in Khuzestan Province. The study was based on a survey method using a non-proportional stratified random sampling, in which 170 safety crop adopters as well as 170 non-adopters were selected. The data were gathered through a questionnaire. The results revealed that there was a significant difference between both groups in term of using information channels and the number of visiting change agents. In addition, the adopters of safe crops had more favorite attitude toward protection of environment and low usage of external chemical inputs. They demonstrated more awareness of the disadvantageous of conventional agriculture. The findings showed that the multiplicity model was the best fitted model which could well discriminate the adopters from non-adopters. The study followed by proposing some recommendations in which policy makers were advised to apply multi-dimensional (or multiplicity) model along with pay more attention to the quality of education and ratify the legal laws to support of safety crop producers
