Agriculture

TheeconomyoftheYuanDynastywasgenerallydominatedbyagriculture.AlthoughitsoverallproductivitywasnotasgoodasthatoftheSongDynasty,itsproductiontechnology,landreclamationarea,grainoutput,waterconservancydevelopment,andcottonwerewidelyused.Greatdevelopmenthasbeenachievedinplantingandotheraspects.WhentheMongolianKhanenteredtheCentralPlains,thebrutalslaughterandlootingcausedgreatdamagetotheeconomyofthenorthernregion.

Mongolswereoriginallynomads.Duringthegrasslandperiod,theyweremainlyanimalhusbandry,withasingleeconomyandnolandsystem.DuringtheMongolianandGoldenWar,therewasaplantokilltheHanpeopleandturnallthecultivatedlandintopasture.TheMinisterYelvChucaisuggestedthatitisbettertokeeptheHanpeople'sagriculturalproductioninordertoprovideasourceoffinancialincome.ThissuggestionwasadoptedbyTemujin.AfterWokuotai,inordertoconsolidatetheruleofHan,somemeasureswereimplementedtoencourageproductionandappeaseexile,andagriculturalproductiongraduallyresumed.Inparticular,thecultivationofcotton,aneconomiccrop,hasbeencontinuouslypromoted.Theplanting,transportationandsalesofcottonandcottontextilesintheJiangnanareahaveincreasedonthebasisoftheSouthernSongDynasty.

Thedevelopmentofcommercialproductionofcashcropsmadetheruraleconomy,whichwasbasicallyself-sufficientatthattime,infiltratedintotherelationshipofcommoditycurrencyeconomyinsomeaspects.However,duetothecentralizedcontrolofalargenumberofhandicraftsmenbytheEmperorYuan,andtheproductionofdailyhandicrafts,thegovernment-runhandicraftindustrywasparticularlydeveloped,andtherewerecertainrestrictionsontheprivatehandicraftindustry.

Business

BecauseMongoliawasmoredependentoncommodityexchangesandlessinfluencedbyConfucianideasaboutcommerce,theYuanDynastypromotedcommerce,whichmadethecommodityeconomyprosperousandmadeitaverywealthycountryintheworldatthattime.ThecapitaloftheYuanDynastyalsobecameaworld-famouscommercialcenteratthattime.Inordertoadapttotheexchangeofcommodities,theYuanDynastyestablishedtheworld'searliestcompletepapercurrencycirculationsystem.ItwasthefirstdynastyinChinesehistorytocompletelyusepapercurrencyasthecurrencyofcirculation.However,theabuseofpapercurrencyalsocausedinflation.CommodityexchangealsopromotedthedevelopmentofthetransportationindustryintheYuanDynasty,andimprovedlandandwatertransportation,inlandandseatransportation.
