Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Chinese Farm Economy' is a pioneering study that provides an in-depth analysis of rural life and agricultural practices in China during the early 20th century. Written by John Lossing Buck, a prominent agricultural economist, this work remains a cornerstone for understanding the socio-econ…omic foundations of the Chinese countryside. The book meticulously examines the structural and operational aspects of small-scale farming, offering detailed data on land utilization, labor, crop yields, and household income across various provinces.By applying statistical methods to the agrarian sector, Buck illuminates the challenges and resilience of the Chinese peasantry. The text explores the relationship between farm size and efficiency, the impact of tenancy, and the standard of living for rural families. As an essential historical resource, 'Chinese Farm Economy' offers scholars and students of economics, history, and Asian studies a clear window into the traditional systems that shaped one of the world's largest agricultural nations. This study is not only a record of historical farming techniques but also a profound investigation into the economic pressures that defined rural China before its mid-century transformations.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it. This work was reproduced from the original artifact, and remains as true to the original work as possible. Therefore, you may see the original copyright references, library stamps (as most of these works have been housed in our most important libraries around the world), and other notations in the work.This work is in the public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
