In this dissertation I analyze planning and market restrictions' impact on agricultural production, consumption and income in the People's Republic of China. Agricultural planning and market restrictions occur in China as the result of conscious state policies. In particular, the state sets procurement and sales quotas that specify minimum sales to and maximum purchases from the state. The state also sets production planning targets that specify the level and manner of production. These restrictions limit the marketing and production opportunities of microeconomic agents and so affect their production and consumption behavior.

520 $a In this dissertation I analyze planning and market restrictions' impact on agricultural production, consumption and income in the People's Republic of China. Agricultural planning and market restrictions occur in China as the result of conscious state policies. In particular, the state sets procurement and sales quotas that specify minimum sales to and maximum purchases from the state. The state also sets production planning targets that specify the level and manner of production. These restrictions limit the marketing and production opportunities of microeconomic agents and so affect their production and consumption behavior.
520 $a I begin in Chapter I with an overview of China's commercial planning policies and agricultural development, followed in Chapter II by description of those policies as they apply to a case-study production team in Hubei Province. In Chapter III I present a theoretical model of the production team. This model, which portrays the team as a welfare-maximizing consumption and production unit, examines team behavior and income in the absence and presence of quota market restrictions. Binding quota restrictions are shown to alter team levels of production, consumption and income and to affect the team's production and consumption responses to price changes. Under binding quota restrictions on goods both produced and consumed, the team's utility-maximizing production behavior may no longer be profit-maximizing. Team consumption preferences will now enter directly into the team's production decision.
520 $a In Chapters IV and V I present a linear-programming empirical model of the case-study production team. Solution of the linear-programming model identifies binding planning and market restrictions and their shadow prices. Model simulations illustrate how the team's production behavior and income would change (1) if restrictions were lifted, (2) if the team chose to consume more or less leisure, and (3) if prices changed. The linear programming model provides empirical substantiation of the theoretical conclusions discussed earlier.
