There is a conspicuous increase in the use of machinery electricity and chemical fertilizer in farm production on the outskirts of Soochow, thanks to the aid by the industrial departments. As a result, per-mu grain yield, compared with pre-liberation years, has gone up twofold and a liversified economy embracing forestry, stockbreeding sideline occupation and fishing is attained.
