Dr. Robert Lawrence Kuhn, an international corporate strategist and political and economics commentator as well as CGTN host, has been given access to this year's big political gathering in Beijing. Discussion of agriculture is a mainstay of the Two Sessions because the sector is in dire need of change to ensure food security and farmers’ livelihoods. Kuhn explained that there are two big problems: lack of efficiency and muddled land rights meaning a lot of land that farmers own but can’t monetize.
