Use the map of agriculture in China to answer the question.
Why is agricultural production in China distributed in this way?
A.
Much of western China is covered by dense rain forests.
B.
Much of western China is mountainous and has a desert climate.
C.
The Huang He frequently floods, destroying farmland in western China.
D.
The Gobi Desert covers western China, making it incapable of supporting farms.
Option B is correct. Much of western China is mountainous and has a desert climate, which makes it difficult to cultivate crops and supports a more nomadic way of life. This is why agricultural production is concentrated in the eastern region of China, which has more fertile plains and a more suitable climate for farming.

I apologize for the confusion, but as an AI language model, I don't have the capability to see or analyze photographs. However, I can provide information on the subject. The ultimate goal of Mao Zedong's Great Leap Forward was to rapidly industrialize the Chinese economy. This initiative, which took place from 1958 to 1962, aimed to transition China from an agrarian society to an industrialized nation by promoting mass mobilization and collective farming. The policies implemented during this period, such as the formation of communes and backyard steel furnaces, had the objective of increasing agricultural and industrial output and accelerating China's development.
