• Productivity, efficiency and technical change: measuring the performance of China’s transforming agriculture (2010, methodology): “While we can not identify the exact source of technical change, the findings are consistent with the findings reported in Jin et al. (2002) that the new varieties that China’s breeders were producing in the nation’s breeding program during the 1980s (which were shown to have greater yield…”
• The Shifting Patterns of Agricultural Production and Productivity Worldwide (2010, methodology): “These findings are consistent with the evidence presented by Jin et al. (2002), wherein the rate of uptake of locally bred varieties was substantial during the entire period 1978-2004.”
• R&D Capital, R&D Spillovers, and Productivity Growth in World Agriculture (2018, background): “…the impact of the CGIAR research on food crop productivity, Suphannachart and Warr (2012), who examined the productivity of Thailand’s crop and livestock sectors separately, and Jin et al. (2002), who focused on sources of TFP growth for China’s three principal crops (rice, wheat, and maize).”
• Financial Development, Economic Efficiency and Productivity Growth: Evidence from China (2006, background): “In addition, by employing data either at the aggregate level, at the enterprise level, by sectors, or by industries, several studies investigate the determinants of TFP growth in China (e.g., Grove et al., 1994; Zheng et al., 1998, 2003; Jin et al., 2002; Cortèse and Hua, 2002).”
• Rising wages, mechanization, and the substitution between capital and labor: evidence from small scale farm system in China (2016, methodology): “Previously, the data have been used in analyses on China’s agricultural supply and input demand (Huang and Rozelle, 1996; Huang et al., 1999; Jin et al., 2002, 2010; Rae et al., 2006).”
• Irrigation, agricultural performance and poverty reduction in China (2006, unknown): “The total factor productivity (TFP) of grain increased steadily during the 1980s and 1990s (Jin et al., 2002).”
• Success and Failure of Reform: Isights from the Transition of Agriculture (2004, background): “(1997) and Jin et al. (2002) demonstrate that during the 1990s, TFP continues to rise at a rate of around 2 percent per year.”
• Water management and crop production for food security in China: A review (2009, background): “Technology adoption accounted for an estimated 40% of the increase in rice productivity during 1980 to 1995, while institutional reforms accounted for 35% (Jin et al., 2002).”
• Assessing farmland protection policy in China (2008, background): “yields in half (Jin et al. 2002).”
• Agricultural productivity, structural change, and economic growth in post-reform China (2013, unknown): “Jin et al. (2002) found that productivity of wheat increased by more than 20% between 1990 and 1995.”
