Abstract

Open burning of straw is the most significant problem of environmental pollution in rural areas. Returning straw to the fields is beneficial to rural environmental management and rural development. Comprehensive utilization of straw in the field not only reduces environmental pollution, but also benefits food production and farmers’ income. Because planting farmers, enterprises, and local governments have different interests, it is difficult for the straw return system to operate soundly. In this study, a three-party evolutionary game model of farmers, enterprises, and local governments was constructed to analyze the evolutionary stability of the strategic choices of the three subjects, explore the influence of each element on the strategic choices of the three parties, and use Matlab2022b simulation to further analyze the dynamic evolution of the game behavior of the system subjects under the given benefits and the given subjects, respectively. The study findings showed that the higher the preferences given by the local government, the higher the probability of farmers and enterprises participating in the straw return system. Only with the participation of local governments can the straw return system be operated robustly. Our study findings also revealed that the interests of farmers must be fully protected in order to mobilize the main body and stimulate market dynamics. The overall findings of this study provide useful insights for promoting government agencies to govern the local environment, increase local revenues, and build integrated waste utilization systems.
