The economic situation of the Northern and Southern Dynasties was obviously different between the South and the North. The economy of the south developed rapidly, especially the Jiangnan area, including the Yangtze River basin, Lingnan, and the Sanwu area. It became an important grain-producing area. Southern farmers introduced advanced agricultural techniques and tools, promoted the manure field method, built water conservancy projects, and expanded the irrigation area of farmland, thus increasing grain production. During the Southern Dynasties, the rice production had already surpassed that of the north. In contrast, the economic development in the north was relatively slow, especially in the Yellow River basin. The economic development gap between the north and the south during the Qin and Han Dynasties was very large. The economy of the north was far higher than that of the south.
