  1. Part of the elimation of cash crops to farmers, like fruit trees, and more emphasis on growing rice. The farmers want to grow food according to profit (market supply and damand). Not bureaucratic decisions made in a distant Beijing office. This is also doubly worse than a Western or democratic Eastern government. As a government, the CCP lies and covers up from top to bottom. This means no reliable data will be in for agricultural production. This could lead to a famine. Just like the Great Leap Forward.

These countries are significantly smaller than China, showing the stark difference in agricultural management and productivity. Predictably, the CCP will introduce a corrupt bureaucratic process to food production, which will only exacerable the food shortage situation in China
