Tachai Produc tion Brigade’s Miracle In China’s fields
The Tachai Production Brigade in Shansi province is hailed as a model for agricultural reform. Led by Chen Yung-kuei, the group terraced barren hills and boosted output from 1949 to 1964, inspiring a national conference and visits from thousands seeking its methods. Critics link attention to politics and purge conflicts to a renewed push for production under moderates. A second Tachai conference is planned in Beijing to refocus on self reliance and land reshaping.
