Book excerpt: Containing ten quality chapters on China''s rural reforms and agricultural development, this first volume from the Series on Developing China: Translated Research from China emphasizes the importance of countryside, agriculture and the role of peasants in China''s economy. While the Chinese revolution has traveled a path of OC encircling the cities from the rural areasOCO, Chinese reforms were likewise started in promoting the household contract responsibility system in the rural areas OCo the majority of its population living in the countryside makes it the focus of the reforms. Such structural issues that readjustment of interests entailed as urban-rural divide and poor-rich gap are closely related to the rural reform. For this, a rural study centered on the three rural issues (agriculture, rural areas and peasants), or peasantography, is actually an academic OC gold mineOCO, which contains the richest possibilities for Chinese social science to contribute to the world. The above mentioned chapters cover an extensive range of issues in rural reform and agricultural development in China, including property right, food trade structure, the Township and Village Enterprises, non-agricultural employment, the mobility of labor force, land distribution, taxation and saving behavior. The research approach ranges from a macro- to microeconomics level, while in terms of research methodology, property theory, game model and quantitative economics are used, in combination with historiography and empirical case studies.

Book Synopsis Insecure Land Tenure and Incomplete Exit of Farm Labor by : Meilin Ma

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Smallholder farming remains predominant in China, despite a massive outflow of rural labor to nonfarm sectors and many agricultural households’ practice of renting out land for which they hold contract use rights. Most households, however, still partially or seasonally cultivate their contract land, resulting in complex land arrangements. Correspondingly, the allocation of labor is complex and frequently adjusted between farm and nonfarm sectors. This dissertation provides a comprehensive analysis of the determinants and efficiency of resource allocation by smallholders as well as large farms in China. Chapters III to IV focus on smallholders. I start with a theoretical model that explains why households often find it optimal to cultivate only part of their contract land or for part of a cropping year. The theory centers upon the value of farmland as a safety net and an appreciable asset for rural households, which is endogenous to the self-cultivated size and farm labor under two institutional restrictions: insecure land tenure and limited access to social benefit programs. According to recent survey data that I collected from 512 households in Sichuan Province of Southwest China, half of the households exit partially and seasonally from fully cultivating their contract land. I estimate the effects of variables that determine the non-productive value of land on the allocation of land and labor. Evidence shows that smallholders overemploy labor on their tiny fields due to the non-productive value. If policy changes eliminated this value, sector-level simulations in Chapter V suggest that the proportion of land cultivated by smallholders could fall from 78% to 41%, the annual income of agricultural households in Sichuan could increase by $15-16 billion, and 5-6 million rural laborers could cease cultivating their contract land and work off the farm. Chapters VI and VII are based on my other dataset of fifty large commercial farms in Sichuan. I first highlight salient features of these farms that suffer from the insecurity in lease contracts as lessor households may take back their land and governments can expropriate the land for nonfarm use. I use a conceptual model to characterize the relationship between insecure lease contracts and two types of farm assets, where attached assets determine farm infrastructure and, consequently, the efficiency of movable assets. I calibrate the model to Sichuan and show that the insecurity associated with leased plots reduces farm investment in attached assets. The corresponding loss can be worth 12-85% of the net production value under the suboptimal investment. Findings of the dissertation are important for Chinese policy in the agricultural sector and beyond. Though reducing the non-productive value of farmland tends to be costly, it is important to supplying enough labor from rural areas to China’s growing nonfarm industries. As a second-best solution, the government may be able to accelerate the consolidation of agricultural production by investing or subsidizing investment in farm infrastructure. Eventually, however, efficient farmland consolidation in China is to be realized only if smallholder households systematically make complete and long-term exit from farming.
Book Synopsis Migration, local off-farm employment, and agricultural production efficiency by : Yang, Jin
Download or read book Migration, local off-farm employment, and agricultural production efficiency written by Yang, Jin and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2014-04-04 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper studies the effect of local off-farm employment and migration on rural households technical efficiency of crop production using a five-year panel dataset from more than 2,000 households in five Chinese provinces. While there is not much debate about the positive contribution of migration and local off-farm employment to Chinas economy, there is an increasing concern about the potential negative effects of moving labor away from agriculture on Chinas future food security. This is a critical issue as maintaining self-sufficiency in grain production will be critical for China to feed its huge population in the future. Several papers have studied the impact of migration on production and yield with mixed results. But the impact of migration on technical efficiency is rarely studied. Methodologically, we incorporate the correlated random-effects approach into the standard stochastic production frontier model to control for unobservable that are correlated with migration and off-farm employment decisions and technical efficiency. The most consistent result that emerged from our econometric analysis is that neither migration nor local off-farm employment has a negative effect on the technical efficiency of grain production, which does not support the widespread notion that vast-scale labor migration could negatively affect Chinas future food security.

Book Synopsis Land Tenure Policy and Women Off-Farm Employment in Rural China by : Hongqin Chang
Download or read book Land Tenure Policy and Women Off-Farm Employment in Rural China written by Hongqin Chang and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using the data from three waves (1995, 2002 and 2008) of the Chinese Household Income Project (CHIP), which covers nine provinces in China, this paper investigates the impact of land tenure security on farmers' labor market outcomes in rural China, especially for women' s labor market behavior. To identify the effect of land tenure security, this paper used difference-in-differences strategy to control for time invariant heterogeneity, and a number of observed time-varying economic characteristics for its validity. The paper finds that in response to more security land rights, both women and men increase their probability of wage employment participation and individual income.

Book Synopsis Policy Reform and Farmers' Wheat Allocation in Rural China by : David E. Buschena
Download or read book Policy Reform and Farmers' Wheat Allocation in Rural China written by David E. Buschena and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Market-oriented policy reforms often have important effects on farm-level grain production and utilisation decisions in developing countries. China's grain farmers are of particular interest because of China's importance in world grain markets and because of China's recent major agricultural policy advances and retrenchments. An empirical evaluation of market liberalisation among farmers located in two provinces in China on farm-level wheat consumption, market sales and on-farm storage during 1994 is presented. The results indicate that policymakers should account for such changes in farm household behaviour in designing and assessing the consequence of market liberalisation programs for agricultural sectors in developing countries.
