Socio-ecological and economic efficiency of agricultural production in China

The modern tasks of agriculture are concentrated in the area of reconciling the contradictions between increasing growth rates in conditions of limited natural resources and protecting the interests of citizens and the environment. The study is devoted to the overview of the current state, consideration of development prospects and analysis of the experience of the People's Republic of China in assessing the efficiency of agricultural production based on an index system of indicators, including 12 indicators grouped by social, environmental and economic characteristics, combined into a comprehensive development index. As a result of the study, the problems and mechanisms of support to rural areas at the state level, which can be useful to other agricultural territories and states, have been identified.
