After three decades of reform, agricultural R&D in China has made considerable progress. Total public expenditures on agricultural R&D doubled from 2001 to 2008, and private expenditure on agricultural R&D grew at an even faster rate. Moreover, preliminary data for more recent years suggests that investments have continued to rise. Furthermore, the government’s recently released 2012 Number 1 document indicates that agricultural technology remains high on the policy agenda (Huang 2012).
