Xiaogang, Anhui
Xiaogang Village () is a small village in Xiaoxihe (), Fengyang County, Chuzhou, Anhui province in China, not far from Nanjing. China's move toward reform has been traced to an agreement among farmers in Xiaogang to secretly subdivide their common farmland in December 1978, after which the production of grain increased dramatically. The village was held up as a model for agricultural reform by China's new leadership after Deng Xiaoping came to power. History During the Great Leap Forward, the Chinese Communist Party made a series of economic reforms, where the most disastrous of them was the collectivization of the administration of private property, specially, the rural lands. Fengyang County, along with much of the rest of the country, experienced a period of famine, due to the inefficiency of the model. A quarter of the local county's population died from starvation. In Xiaogang village alone, 67 villagers died of starvation out of a population of 120 between 1958 and 1960 ...
