Chapter 5 in China’s Agriculture at the Crossroads, 2000, pp 64-77 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Rice is the largest cereal crop in China, accounting for about 45 per cent of cereal output.1 Although rice is grown throughout China, production is concentrated heavily in the southern provinces. Regional diversity in rice-cropping systems has developed in line with regional specific natural conditions and cultures, but rice production patterns throughout China are land- and labour-intensive.
