The Chinese National Peasants' Association (Chinese: 中华全国农民协会; pinyin: Zhōnghuá quánguó nóngmín xiéhuì), otherwise known as the Chinese Peasants' Association (Chinese: 中国农民协会; pinyin: Zhōngguó nóngmín xiéhuì), was a peasant organization created in 1927 with the specific aim of transforming the peasantry via Socialism. It was led by the Chinese Communist Party until its dissolution in 1964.[1] Its successor was the Chinese National Poor and Lower-Middle Peasants' Association (Chinese: 中华全国贫下中农协会; pinyin: Zhōnghuá quánguó pín xiàzhōngnóng xiéhuì), created in 1964[2] and dissolved de facto in 1986.[3]
