Published online by Cambridge University Press:  17 February 2009

Extract

First hard estimates of China's food production for 1962, a crucial year indeed, indicate a grains yield increase of from 8 to 10 per cent, over 1961, giving a total of 180–185 million metric tons; a fair enough year, all things considered, but not one promising any real relief from grey austerity, or an early end to the heavy industry pause.
