Is growing grain actually worth it? High grain yields do not equal higher farmer incomes
China's number one wheat county welcomes a twelfth consecutive summer grain increase, yet a major grain county is not equal to a strong agricultural county, and high grain yields are not equal to higher farmer incomes.

Why is the citizenisation of migrant workers just as important as rural development?
Over the 30-plus years of reform and opening up, rapid economic development has fundamentally shattered the stereotyped impressions of rural people. In recent years, both rural and urban areas have been seeking new transformations.
