CHINESE AGRICULTURE IN THE 1930S GEBUNDEN

This edited volume analyzes land utilization data from farm surveys taken in China between 1929
and 1933. This data  which was the foundation for John Lossing Buck's seminal work Land
Utilization in China (1937)  was thought lost to history until rediscovered in 2000. The book
presents the first modern analyses of agricultural economics in Republican China using Buck's
micro-data  covering important topics such as nutritional poverty  tenancy issues  land
productivity  surplus labor  workers' incomes  credit supply  and regional differences. Through
using modern analytical methods  this book presents a more accurate picture of the agricultural
economy in the Republican Era and will be of particular interest to agricultural economists 
economic historians  and Chinese studies scholars.
