万里
In Anhui, Wan Li was responsible for the earliest post-Mao agrarian reform. He instituted the household-responsibility system whereby farmers divided communal lands and assigned them to individual farmers. However, Wan faced resistance from conservatives in Beijing who criticized his reforms as not sufficiently socialist or ineffective. However, Wan pressed on with the reforms anyway. His six guidelines (the "Anhui liu tiao") relaxed controls on trading as well, permitting farmers to sell surplus produce independently. Peasants were allowed to grow vegetables on 3/10th of a "mu" and did not have to pay taxes on wheat and oil-bearing plants grown on private plots.
