The Qin dynasty's agrarianism had a profound impact on China.

The Qin Dynasty's ideology of agriculturalism had a profound impact on China, as follows:

The concept of "emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce," or "the end of agriculture and commerce," is an important area of traditional Chinese cultural thought, as well as one of the dominant ideologies in the ideological field that has been passed down for a long time and has had great influence on China's society.

The concept of "emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce" or "the end of agriculture and industry" is an important area of traditional Chinese cultural thought, and one of the dominant ideas in China's history that has been circulating for a long time and has had a great influence in the ideological realm, and its impact on Chinese society has been described by many people.

The policy of "emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce" was established during the Qin and Han Dynasties, and has been the basic policy of successive feudal dynasties in China ever since, and has been used as a traditional economic guiding principle by successive rulers.

First of all, the policy of suppressing commerce impeded the development of the social economy, making the ancient society in a state of stagnation for a long time. The commodity economy developed during the pre-Qin period had a fatal impact on the primitive feudal system, disrupting all the previous feudal relations and changing the way of land possession and exploitation, which did not subvert the feudal system but brought about great changes.

Since then, in order to maintain the dominant position of the class, the feudal rulers mainly through the "forbidden system", "tributary system" and "official industrial system", the three pillars of the suppression of commerce, to achieve the development of the suppression of the commodity economy, to achieve the goal of the development of the commodity economy, to achieve the goal of the suppression of the development of the commodity economy. The three pillars of the feudal rulers' suppression of commerce, namely the "prohibition system", the "tribute system" and the "government industrial system", were used to suppress the development of the commodity economy, which was fundamentally inhibited.

But on the one hand, "emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce" was in line with the level of historical development of ancient societies, which ensured the development of agriculture, promoted the development of productive forces and society, and satisfied the basic requirements of people's lives, with its historical rationality and inevitability.

"Agriculture was the decisive production sector of the whole ancient world", subject to the low level of productivity of the society at that time, the natural economic basis of the ancient society led to the prevalence of this concept, only the vigorous development of agriculture in order to meet the basic needs of the people's lives and social stability.

In short, the idea of "emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce" not only adapted to the development of the society at that time and had a positive side, but also hindered the development of the society to a certain extent in the long run and had a negative side. We have to put the issue into the historical context of the time to examine, can not be too absolutist evaluation of it, should be dialectical view
