Trend, policy cycle, and weather disturbance in Chinese agriculture, 1952-1978
1980
Tang, A.M.
Extract: I attempt in the present paper (a) to quantify and analyze the secular behavior of total factor productivity of the sector; (b) to test and analyze the changing impact of weather on productivity in light of such developments as socialist reorganization of the countryside, massive water control, and introduction of new biological, chemical, and mechanical inputs within the context of Peking's successful "weather-proofing" claims; and (c) to isolate and attempt a crude measure of the cyclical swings in productivity attributable to policy or political cycles in the People's Republic of China.
