The first revolution in the Chinese countryside was the land reform
implemented in the 'liberated areas' and extended throughout China
after the proclamation of the People's Republic of China in 1949.
This was important in the consolidation of the Communist Party's
political power. The second revolution was the decollectivization
of agriculture and the shift to the household responsibility system
as a basis for agricultural production. The phenomenal increase in
Chinese agricultural output from 1978 to 1984 resulted partly from
the new system of production and with a resulting explosion of farm
incomes. The second revolution in the Chinese countryside from the
late 1970s set the scene for the third revolution: the freeing of
markets for farm products and the linking of domestic markets and
international markets. The third revolution is still in progress
and this book explores its beginnings. Initially, the book covers
the issues of poverty in China and feeding the population. The
second section describes the agricultural markets in China and the
price reform of agricultural products. The next two parts discuss
international and regional issues of China's agricultural economy.
Finally there are contributions on what institutional changes have
been associated with the third agricultural revolution. The
contributions are from a team of experts on the Chinese economy
from inside and outside China led by Professor Garnaut.
