Abstract: China’s price support programs, aimed at improving food security and grower incomes, led to increased domestic prices. The resulting gap between domestic and international prices created large stockpiles. In response, China implemented target prices for cotton and soybeans and eliminated corn price supports. Self-sufficiency agricultural policies continue.
