The book categorizes China’s food policies into four interconnected domains: food security, food safety, environmentally sustainable agriculture, and nutrition-oriented food policies. For each domain, it reviews key institutional developments, current policy strategies, and their implications for both producers and consumers, while also discussing emerging challenges and future policy directions. Through this integrated perspective, the book provides a comprehensive understanding of how China’s food policies have continuously adapted to evolving economic, environmental, and public health challenges, reshaping the agri-food system in fundamental ways.

This book focuses on the UN Sustainable Development Goals, using nationally representative datasets from the China Rural Household Panel Survey and China Labor-force Dynamics Survey to reveal the temporal and spatial evolution of cropland abandonment in rural China, and systematically examines the underlying drivers and governance strategies of farmers' cropland abandonment.More specifically, this book creatively uses "People-Land-Money-Rights" as an analytical clue, and comprehensively employs modern econometric methods such as panel Tobit model, staggered DID model, and panel fixed-effect model to empirically investigate the impact of off-farm employment, land fragmentation, agricultural comparative return, and tenure insecurity on farmers' cropland abandonment. Based on these, this book also further explores the role of new agricultural business entities, farmland water conservancy projects, agricultural subsidy reform, and land tenure reform in curbing cropland abandonment. This book highlights the urgent need to address cropland abandonment and provides valuable insights into land protection in the context of food security and sustainable agriculture.

This book provides the first comprehensive and systematic account of the multi-level governance system adopted by China in realizing the Dual-Carbon transition. This governance system encompasses the participation of the government, the market, industry and all sectors of society, and emphasizes coordination and cooperation between all levels of government between different sectors, and between domestic and international levels. The book finds that the government can play an important leadership and guidance role in the Dual-Carbon transition. By formulating and implementing relevant policies, regulations and planning, the government can promote the process of Dual-Carbon development. Second, the full utilization of market mechanisms also plays a key role. Through measures such as establishing a carbon market and promoting carbon pricing, the market mechanism promotes the innovation and application of low carbon technologies. In addition, the active participation of industry is an indispensable factor in realizing a Dual-Carbon transition. Industry and agriculture have contributed to Dual-Carbon development by promoting the efficient use of resources and the adoption of green production methods. Finally, raising public awareness and participation in environmental protection is also indispensable, and the process of Dual-Carbon transition is effectively promoted through publicity and education, social organizations and public participation. By addressing multiple themes, this book provides a comprehensive understanding and in-depth analysis of the Dual-Carbon transition, and offers scientific guidance and policy recommendations for China's sustainable development and the achievement of Dual-Carbon goals. At the same time, the significance of this book lies in the fact that it provides reference for other countries and regions, and makes a positive contribution to global climate governance.Parts of this book's translation from its Chinese original manuscript were completed with the assistance of artificial intelligence.
