In 2008，Chinese rural areas entered a new phrase featured as “driving agriculture by industry，driving countryside by city”. A substantive progress has been achieved in the coordination of urban and rural development. Farmer’s income continued growing but the growth rate slowed down. Huge damage was caused to the production and living conditions of farmers in southern China and Sichuan province.

According to the change of international economic situation，the Central Government decided to carry out the positive policy of expanding domestic demand and expedite rural infrastructure construction.
