中文摘要：

农业经济学教材是农业经济人才培养和学科体系建设的重要组成部分。分析农业经济学的形成及演进趋势，主要有从农场、庄园管理起源到重农思想演进、从唯苏教条到马克思主义中国化，以及吸收国外有益成果到自成体系几条路径和向资源经济学、区域经济学等方向演进的趋势。探讨国内已有的农业经济学教材，有生产力和生产关系研究体系的、有经济管理体系的、也有三农研究混合体系的，可以说各有千秋和特色。笔者认为，从农业经济学的起源、发展和学理出发，借鉴现有各种版本教材的体系和特色，一本真正能反映农业经济系统专门知识的现代农业经济学教材，应该主要设立农业现代化的组织与现状、农业生产资源要素、农产品市场供求与调节及消费、农业生产宏观环境和宏观调控四个部分，力求沿着农产品产业链体系，从农业生产的发生、发展到产品的流通消费全过程来研究农业经济问题。
