In Reforming the Cropping System, We must Seek Truth from Facts

Abstract: In the 1950s and 1970s, our country carried out two reforms on the cropping system. The first reform involved the change from single cropping to double cropping, and the adoption of continuous cropping without fallow period. This meant that the old system of three harvests in two years changed to two harvests in one year. The second reform was to change from two crops a year to three crops a year. These two reforms have played a major role in agricultural development and in increasing food grain production, and this contribution should be affirmed.
