Features: This book focuses on the research of farmers' income increase under the perspective of public finance. The book is divided into nine chapters. First, it briefly discusses public finance theory in the context of China's rural reality. It analyzes the current state of farmers' income from various angles, highlighting the urgency of addressing the issue. It comprehensively explores the intrinsic connection between public finance and farmers' income increase, concluding that farmers' income growth relies on public finance support and that promoting it requires establishing a public finance system. Next, it elaborates on public finance policies and measures adopted by other countries to promote farmers' income increase and their implications. The Chinese government must learn from successful international experiences and adapt them to China's specific conditions. Then, it proposes the need to construct a new system for rural public product supply to promote farmers' income increase. The book also conducts in-depth research on issues such as agricultural subsidy policies and farmers' income increase, rural tax and fee reforms and farmers' income increase, rural education financial investment and farmers' income increase, and the establishment of a sound rural social security system. It should be noted that while this book aims to cover all aspects of rural public finance, it is not entirely comprehensive and does not address many issues in this field, which require further research in the future. Moreover, solving the problem of farmers' income increase is a systematic project involving politics, economics, culture, and society. The analysis and recommendations presented in this book are based on the perspective of public finance. In reality, addressing farmers' income increase relies on the coordination of multiple measures and will be a long-term, gradual process.
