Abstract: Agriculture is the fundamental industry and economic lifeline of a country with one-quarter of the world's population. Reform in the rural financial service system is a key step in a drive to construct a new type of countryside. It is crucial to establish and develop mutual funding cooperative organizations composed of farmers. Governments at all levels, particularly the financial sectors, should give adequate attention and support to this issue. They should fully promote the building of rural mutual assistance funding cooperatives and guide them to improve their internal management in the start-up period. Local governments should supervise these cooperatives in capital adequacy and risk status of assets, with regulatory measures to ensure that the cooperatives develop along a healthy track.
