Description

Explore the complex landscape of China's food systems with this academic study from Routledge. Feeding a massive population has long been a central challenge for the nation, marked by historical events such as the large-scale famine from 1958 to 1962. This book examines the transition from those difficult years to the significant improvements in food availability seen since the early 1980s. While the increase in food availability is a major milestone, this text asks a vital question: has China truly achieved food security? The research looks beyond simple availability to address the lack of progress in other essential areas. It provides a deep look at the obstacles that remain, making it a necessary resource for students and professionals interested in the modern world economy and social sciences. Understand the shifts in availability and the ongoing hurdles that define the current state of food security in China.
