Improving farmers’ renewal intention is the foundation for longterm and stable development of the mode of a leading agricultural enterprise plus peasant households.Based on the survey of 552 farmer households in Hainan,Hubei,Jiangxi,Anhui,Henan and Shanxi provinces,this paper uses multiple regression model to study the relation mechanism of contracts and relational governance on renewal intention,and further explores the moderating role of market uncertainty in the relationship between governance mechanisms and renewal intention.The result shows that contractual obligatoriness and relational governance both have a positive effect on farmers’ renewal intentions,while contractual inclusiveness has a negative effect on farmers’ renewal intentions; meanwhile relational governance strengthens the positive influence of contractual obligatoriness on farmers’ renewal intentions,but has no moderating effect on the relationship between contract inclusiveness and farmers’ renewal intentions; market uncertainty shows a negative moderating effect on relationship between contractual inclusiveness and farmers’ renewal intention,but it has a positive moderating effect on the relationship between contractual obligatoriness and farmers’ renewal intention.However,it plays no moderating role in the relationship between relational governance and farmers’ renewal intention.
