Historical Change of China’s Agriculture 2. Main Challenges of Agr. Supply and Demand 3. China's rice production, demand and trade 4. Future perspective of China's rice trade 5. Main conclusion and policy implications China’s food consumption pattern is expected to undergo the quick transition with its high economic growth and fast urbanization. — Per capita consumption on rice, wheat will decline gradually, following the similar pathway experienced in Japan, Korea and Taiwan. — However, per capita consumption on high-value added food (e.g., fruits, meat, diary and fishery products) will continue to rise in next 2 decades. — China’s feed demand will increase dramatically due to the quick growth of livestock sectors. While China’s rice production confronts furious challenges of rising cost, the decreasing per capita demand and increasing yield will alleviate the pressure remarkably. Our results indicates that China could maintain the high self-sufficient ration in the future. — Consumer’s demand on rice will shift to highquality rice (i.e., good taste, safe and nutritional). So the key of rice production in China is not to promote the output, but enhance the quality. — It is also full of policy implication for regions to export rice to China. More attentions should be paid to reducing production cost and sustainable development, instead of increasing supply. — Institutional innovations (including policy reform) are critical to reduce the cost of labor and land rent. — Technology improvement will play a rising important role to promote China’s agricultural production and secure food security.
