中国是一个农业大国，同时也是世界上农业发展历史最悠久的国家之一，水稻等主要农作物都起源于中国。中国各种农产品的产量增长很快，谷物、肉类、棉花、油菜(rape)、花生、水果的总产量均居世界第一位。秦岭淮河线，是南北地域分异的重要地理界线。秦岭淮河线以北的北方，作物多为旱作(dry crops)，秦岭淮河线以南的南方，全年都有作物生长。
China is a great agricultural country. It is also one of the countries with the longest history of agricultural development in the world. Crops like rice originate from China. The production of various crops in China has a high growth rate. The output of grains, meat, cotton, rape, peanuts and fruit rank first in the world. The Qinling Mountains and the Huaihe River serve as an important demarcation line of north-south boundary in China. North to this line is the northern region which mainly grows dry crops. South to the line is the southern region which grows crops all year round.
中国农业
农业是中国的重要产业。中国的农业产居世界首位，主要出产大米、小麦、土豆、花生、茶叶和棉花。即使中国的可耕地(arable land)仅占世界的10%,但是中国却为世界上20%的人口提供粮食。因为中国是发展中国家且可耕地严重匮乏，中国的农业一直是劳动密集型(labor-intensive)。中国政府密切注重农业，增大投资力度，积极展开灌溉和水资源保护，以提髙农业生产的现代化水平，使得中国各类农产品的产品迅速增加。不过，因为人口众多，人均农产品产量很低。
