Features: The Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region is located in the northern inland of the motherland, with a small population, small territory, and underdeveloped economy. The landform consists of two major units: one is the northern plain, where the Yellow River flows through, benefiting from the Yellow River for a long time and free from drought and flood, known as the "Jiangnan on the Frontier," serving as the commodity grain base of the entire autonomous region and the essence of Ningxia's agriculture; the other is the southern mountainous area, with harsh production conditions and frequent disasters, where food security has yet to be resolved for nearly one million people, ranking as the poorest region in the country. This book is a high-level, authoritative, and large-scale reference book that comprehensively and systematically reflects the basic conditions of agricultural and rural economic development in the entire autonomous region since the founding of New China. It fully and systematically records the changes in the agricultural and rural economic development of Ningxia since the founding of New China, especially since the Third Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.
