Extended data

The evolution route of land system in China: distribute land equally, rely on poor peasants and farm labourers, unite with middle peasants, restrict rich peasants, protect small and medium-sized businesses, eliminate the landlord class, and change feudal and semi-feudal land ownership into peasant land ownership.

Impact: the rural revolutionary base areas have been consolidated; Turn the poor peasants and farm labourers over politically, distribute land economically, ensure their livelihood and arouse their revolutionary enthusiasm.

Reforming the land system is a basic task of China's democratic revolution and the most urgent requirement of farmers. Without solving the land problem, it is impossible to really mobilize the broad masses of peasants and complete the anti-feudal task. During the ten-year confrontation between the country and War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the China * * * Production Party formulated a feasible land reform policy according to the domestic contradictions at that time. After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's victory, the main contradictions in China society have changed. In order to meet the needs of establishing an anti-Japanese national United front, the policy of reducing rent and interest can no longer meet the requirements of the broad masses of farmers. In order to completely eliminate the feudal exploitation system, China * * * Production Party formulated the Outline of China Land Law. This is a relatively perfect program of agrarian revolution.
