Agricultural Technologies and Soil Sciences
2022Ever since humans transitioned from foraging to farming in what is now China about 9,000 or 10,000 years ago, soil has been the basis for food production and later for the state’s tax revenues. Throughout Chinese history, environmental, social, cultural, and political conditions fostered the development of a variety of specific regional forms of land ...
