The first revolution in the Chinese countryside was the land reform after 1949. The second was the shift to the household responsibility system as a basis for agricultural production. This set the scene for the third revolution. This book has contributions from a team of experts on the Chinese economy on issues of poverty and feeding the Chinese population, agricultural price reforms, international and regional issues of China's agricultural economy, and institutional changes associated with the third agricultural revolution.

Reviews & endorsements
"The book provides valuable reading for agricultural economists interested in how China will continue with its lliberalization and deregulation of agriculture and how it will link its rural economy with international markets. I would also recommend the book for all who are occupied with the problems of agriculture in transitional economies." Ottfried C. Kirsch, Journal of Developing Areas
