COVER STORY

A Big Granary looks at the mechanization of the farming industry in China. The rapid development not only eradicates the need for intense manual labor but has also significantly increased China’s food stability – no easy task for a country of almost 1.4 billion people. Heilongjiang Province has an annual grain production of over 60 billion kilograms, taking the number one spot in China for seven consecutive years.

BUSINESS

Despite a decelerating economy, China is still on track to achieve its annual growth rate according the National Bureau of Statistics. This is the quiddity of the second story Building Up Steam. In the piece Xu Hongcai from the China Center for International Economic Exchanges suggests that China’s transfer to a high-end economy and the lingering trade frictions with the U.S. were the dominant reasons for this slowing expansion.

BUSINESS

Playing Fair discusses the China International Import Expo and highlights the expansion of foreign goods in the Chinese market. The piece discusses how a successful two-way trading relationship can help drive the Chinese economy, principally through consumption upgrade.
