The modern agricultural management system is a necessary means to achieve the Chinese path to agricultural modernization. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, faced with the problem of “who farms the land” and with the reform of “the system for separating the ownership, contractual, and management rights for contracted rural land” as an institutional guarantee, China has initially established a threedimensional composite modern agricultural management system with family farms as the basis, farmerscooperatives as the mainstay, leading agricultural industrialization enterprises as the backbone, and agricultural socialized service organizations as the support, leading and driving the development of small household farmers. Through policy innovation in cultivating and strengthening new types of agricultural operating entities and promoting the link between small household farmers and modern agricultural development, the system has played an important role in consolidating and improving the system of basic rural operations, promoting the cost reduction and enhancing quality and efficiency in the agricultural sector, increasing farmers income, and ensuring food security and the supply of important agricultural products in China. It has had a profound impact on pursuing the path of agricultural modernization with Chinese characteristics.
