16. 1. Two Important Publications in 1995 Who will Feed China – Wake up Call for a Small PlanetWho will Feed China – Wake up Call for a Small Planet Lester R.Brown （ Director,World Surveying Institution of America ） China’s Agricultural Development ReportChina’s Agricultural Development Report 95 （ White Paper on China's Agriculture ） 95 （ White Paper on China's Agriculture ） Liu Jiang (China Agriculture Minister) Liu Jiang (China Agriculture Minister) Chinese leaders concerned about China's future and the world politicians, scientists, economists, and the eyes of the world 1/5 towards the country with a large population.

18. 2. Brown's Main Point of View (Pessimism) Future : Chinese people can not feed themselves (Chinese Food Panic) Who can not feed Chinese people (World Food Panic) Future : Chinese people can not feed themselves (Chinese Food Panic) Who can not feed Chinese people (World Food Panic) 2 ） China will have 1.6 billion people in 2030.we must rely on food imports, which attracts worldwide grain price has been inflated. Weather China has the ability to buy foreign food and which country can provide China with food. 1 ） From the 1990s to 2030, China will follow industrialization path of Japan and Korea in 1950-1990,with worker-peasant contradictions, Significant decline in per capita arable land, food needs contradiction. 1 ） From the 1990s to 2030, China will follow industrialization path of Japan and Korea in 1950-1990,with worker-peasant contradictions, Significant decline in per capita arable land, food needs contradiction.

19. 3. Survey Brown's View from the Perspective of Geography 1 ） The model of industrialization can’t be compared between small island and land power country. Limiting factors in grain output are essentially different, the former, land quantitative restrictions, the latter, land quality restrictions. 2 ） Chinese natural geographical diversity-industrialization process, food production geographical diversity, the impact of geographical differences is also large; And essentially different at small island state, can be complementary of regions, complementary of the worker-peasant.

20. 3) Overestimate China's per-capita appropriation level 10,644 U.S. dollars China's per capita GDP in 2030, (amounting to lower than the current per capita GDP of Japan at 6% growth rate (1998 to 32,380 U.S. dollars in Japan; Shanghai, China for 3,000 U.S. dollars), not owning Japan's import capacity. 3) Overestimate China's per-capita appropriation level 10,644 U.S. dollars China's per capita GDP in 2030, (amounting to lower than the current per capita GDP of Japan at 6% growth rate (1998 to 32,380 U.S. dollars in Japan; Shanghai, China for 3,000 U.S. dollars), not owning Japan's import capacity. 4 ） Chinese consumption levels may be corresponding with the industrialization level of the current Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou in 2030.

21. 4. Chinese People can Feed Themselves 1 ） China has the ability to solve food needs problems. 2 ） The basis of Brown’s perspective is inadequate or even wrong 3 ） Chinese people can feed themselves 1 ） China has the ability to solve food needs problems. 2 ） The basis of Brown’s perspective is inadequate or even wrong 3 ） Chinese people can feed themselves 5.
