To achieve high-quality development of agriculture, it is important to improve quality and increase benefits. The quality of agriculture can be improved through the production of green agricultural products (APs). However, the key to achieving high-quality development of agriculture is to increase benefits, i.e. increase the income of farmer household, through the production of green APs. To judge whether green APs production could boost farmer household income, this paper collects data from questionnaire survey on farmer households in northern China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (IMAR), and assesses the impact of green APs production on farmer household income by descriptive analysis and the model of treatment effects. The results show that green APs production had a significant positive impact on the net mean income per mu of farmer households in crop farming, i.e. green APs production obviously promotes farmer household income. The research findings help to promote green production of farmer households and achieve high-quality development of agriculture.
