Govt must enact land reform
Policy change needed to rationalize farming sector and increase output China's agricultural sector is struggling to keep up with the demand for food from its increasingly urbanized population, a situation that experts say could be addressed by government reforms. One plausible solution could include large-scale farms, advanced technologies and unified land markets, which will likely be introduced at the forthcoming Third Plenum of the Communist Party of China's 18th Central Committee, scheduled for Nov 9 to 12. To ensure that farmers can exercise these individual rights, the central government must establish unified land markets throughout the country. Another concern is the central government's redline, or minimum, of 120 million hectares of land that it said must remain arable to make sure the country would be able to feed its large population. Successful land reforms can improve China's agricultural production, create new streams of revenue for local governments and ease tension among farmers when their land is acquired.
