By constructing a theoretical framework of large-scale farmers’ willingness to participate in environmental management based on a psychology hypothesis of decision from the experiment,we systematically studied the formation mechanism of large-scale farmers’ environmental governance participation willingness and its path differences under different environmental governance models. Firstly,we constructed the path framework of farmers’ environmental governance participation decision-making mechanism from the perspective of empirical dependence and proposed a research hypothesis based on the perceived differences of different governance scenarios. Then,we used the survey data of 2017 in Hubei province to test the hypothesis using PSM. The results show that the farmers who have experience of recycling pig manure are more willing to participate in environmental management. In the mandatory environmental governance scenario,the willingness of environmental management participating is always expanded under a weaker perception of governance management. While,in induced environmental governance scenario,the willingness of environmental management participating is always expanded under a more profound perception of social interaction. This provides a possibility to coordinate the “top-down” coercive environmental governance model with the “bottom-up” induced environmental governance model in rural areas.
