    Abstract:

    This paper adopts the micro data from the China Labor-force Dynamic Survey in 2016 to explore the impact of migrant employment experience on farmer entrepreneurship. The empirical result shows that the migrant employment experience obviously enhances the probability of farmer entrepreneurship by 1.67%. By using the IV and PSM to mitigate the endogeneity problem, the results are still robust. And the employment experiences in companies don't have an obvious influence on the farmer entrepreneurship, but the self-employment experiences could improve the probability of farmer entrepreneurship, which provides a new empirical evidence and opens "black box" of migrant employment experience. Furthermore, this paper explores the channels of migrant employment experience affecting farmer entrepreneurship. The findings are that migrant employment experience can enhance the probability of farmer entrepreneurship through social capital, physical capital and human capital and the motivation is not the channels. Meanwhile, this paper also investigates the moderator effect of the Internet use. Finally, this paper finds that migrant employment experience has a significant impact on local entrepreneurship rather than outland entrepreneurship. Compared with "employer" entrepreneurship, the migrant employment experience has a significant and positive impact on "self-employed" entrepreneurship.
