Book Food For One Billion

Download or read book Food For One Billion written by Robert C. Hsu and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-03-22 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the agricultural policies and programs adopted by the Chinese leadership since 1949 and analyzes the role of agriculture in China's changing development strategies. Dr. Hsu gives particular attention to the measures intended to improve agricultural technology and to the sources of funds for agricultural investment. He concludes that, although the collective system has been effective in mobilizing China's rural resources for agricultural development and in promoting progress in labor-intensive agricultural technology, periodic extreme leftist policies and interference by rural party cadres have caused various kinds of inefficiency, offsetting the advantages gained from collective farming. This is the first book to systematically analyze the ways in which China's agricultural development is being financed. By critically examining the level and nature of state resources allocated to agriculture, the author challenges the view that China has pursued an agriculture-first strategy of economic development since the early 1960s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This impressive report compilation contains the testimony of ten renowned experts at a hearing in 2018 investigating China's food policies and how they affect the United States. It examined China's food security and agricultural trade policy, China's investment in food resources abroad, the impact of China's biotechnology policies on U.S. firms and farmers, and export opportunities for U.S. food and agricultural firms in China. It also probed food safety challenges in China and how the United States should respond to food safety and market conditions in China. In addition, there is an issue brief from May 2019 about China's African swine flu outbreak and its implications for U.S. food safety and trade. A swine flu outbreak has significantly reduced China's hog population. The impact is expected to result in increased U.S. pork exports to China but decreased exports of animal feed products like soybeans and sorghum. China's poor food safety regulations and inspection systems contributed to the spread of the ASF virus.Panel I: China's Food Security Policies and U.S.-China Trade in Agriculture * 1.

We saw a vivid example of this in 2006 and 2007 when adulterated Chinese pet treats killed almost 2,000 U.S. cats and 2,220 U.S. dogs. More recently in 2017 more than 600 Canadians contracted norovirus from frozen Chinese raspberries, including many children and senior citizens who are more sensitive to the virus's effect. The United States can learn from outbreaks like these as the U.S. and Canada import similar products from China and U.S. citizens were similarly affected by Chinese imports in 2016. Chinese food imports carry several risks that must be adequately managed. First, China's industrial development has left much of its air, soil, and water heavily polluted and this contamination has found its way into Chinese crops. Second, China has thousands of small-scale food producers who don't often follow proper food safety procedures. Finally, while China has made progress in reforming the legal framework behind its food safety regime, implementation of this framework has been frustrated by a dearth of qualified Chinese inspectors.

Book Agricultural Reform in China

Download or read book Agricultural Reform in China written by Yiping Huang and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-01-13 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chinese agriculture has experienced some radical changes over the past twenty years. Following the successful introduction of the household production system in the early 1980s, difficulties were encountered in establishing a unified domestic agricultural market in the later 1980s and 1990s. Through a comprehensive analysis of the changes in the Chinese agricultural institutions between the late 1970s and the mid-1990s, this study attempts to provide some answers to the main questions presently facing the agricultural sector. It focuses on the key elements of the pre-reform agricultural institutions, reviews the ways these institutions were refashioned and assesses the resulting changes in agricultural development. The implications of different policy choices are carefully considered with the assistance of a computable general equilibrium model. The author argues that China should push forward with its market-oriented reform measures and introduce the rigours of international competition into the agricultural sector.
