Question

Why was the Great Leap Forward unsuccessful?

People wanted to be able to own land and work for themselves to make a profit.


Chinese farmers did not know how to plant crops on large plots of land.


The Communist government rejected Mao’s idea and the farms were never organized.

Answer 1

Due to the fact that the Great Leap Forward was not based on any sound economic analysis, but simply unrealistic output targets set by Mao Zedong and based on the ideology of Maoism, one is able to contribute its failure to the lack of central planning by the Chinese government, which encapsulates various other causes thats what i can remeber hope it helps
