摘      要：With more than a fifth of the world’s population and less than 10% of the world’s arable land modernizing China’s agriculture may be the key to solving China’s looming food security crisis of the 21 st *** has been made in solving the country’s food security,but rural-urban inequality continues despite being a goal of development *** in other industries have been successful at building economic capacity from the ground up with policy experimentation,but why not agriculture? Why was one of the most critical industries approached differently? To answer these questions a comparative case study analysis between the Torch Program and Dragon Head Enterprises found that the threat of peasant instability as a result of failed local experiments was too great and a top-down developmental approach was pursued instead.
