Published in 1998. Chinese farm households have been at the centre
of the rural reform process since the introduction of the Household
Responsibility System in the late 1970's. There can be little doubt
that, for decades to come, they will continue to be a focus of
interest both in academic and political circles. This is
particularly true in relation to their role of grain sector, when
we consider the prominent position of grain in China's political
economy. There is also intense global interest in the impact of the
reform process on the country's future grain self-sufficiency and
trade. This book is ambitious in both its scope and remit. Its
primary focus is the behaviour of the marketable surplus element of
farm households' grain supply since the beginning of the reform
period. The early chapters provide very valuable insights into the
nature of the rural reform process; it then looks at the impact of
the reforms on the structure of rural economy in general and farm
households in particular. This part of the book is rich in
statistics on the reform period. In the analytical section the
emphasis is on the difficult area of household modelling, covering
both theoretical and empirical aspects. Despite the data
limitations, which the authors acknowledge, these chapters provide
very valuable analyses of the grain price changes. In particular,
their use of models which capture the interdependencies between
grain marketable surplus supply is a genuine contribution. This
book should be read by anyone with an interest in the rural reform
process in China and will be of particular relevance to students,
scholars and the policy community.
