Abstract
- Highlights: [•] China has stringent food production standards to approach zero ecological impact. [•] State support for eco-agriculture is part of the agricultural modernization agenda. [•] Yet state support fosters high-tech farming that excludes smaller producers. [•] Consumer priorities are food safety, not environmental protection or farmer incomes. [•] Some exceptions include values-oriented CSAs, farmers’ markets, and buying clubs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
