But the rural structure changed greatly in recent years and National Health Insurance was put into practice for years. So, the target of Farmer Health Insurance must be corrected to meet the requirements of future. This study attempts to examine the growth rate of the numbers of Farmer Health Insurance by using the financial indexes of every farmers’ association. In this study, we devide the variances of the growth rate of the numbers of Farmer Health Insurance in 2009 and 2010 into three categories and use Multinomial Logistic Regression model to analyze the influences. The empirical results indicated that the population density at the end of the year, return on net worth and per employee’s average operating revenue have the significant and positive effect. In addition, the personnel costs divided by total revenue would experience less the growth rate.
