What is the mode of production of Gaoshan nationality?

Most Gaoshan people are engaged in agriculture, and a few are engaged in fishing and hunting. There are handicrafts such as carving and weaving.

/kloc-Before the great migration of the Han nationality in the 0/7th century, the Gaoshan nationality in Taiwan Province Province was in the primitive social stage. Ethnic minorities living in mountainous areas make a living by hunting. Ethnic groups living in the plain are engaged in burning, ploughing, fishing, hunting and gathering, and mainly plant taro, potato, upland rice and millet. They don't know that plows, rakes, hoes and axes, production tools and farming techniques are extremely primitive.

In Qing Dynasty, with the development of large-scale immigration, Gaoshan people in Taiwan Province Province generally introduced advanced production technology from Han people. Significant changes have taken place in the production and life of Gaoshan people living in the plain and coastal areas, and they began to plant rice, wheat, millet, millet, sesame and beans, while Gaoshan people living in caves and deep forests still focus on hunting and gathering and planting. Hunting is called "weeding", mainly deer, wild boar, bison, bears, leopards, rabbits and pheasants. Hunting tools mainly include bows, arrows, spears, knives and weapons. Hunting methods generally include fire hunting, trapping hunting and shooting hunting. The hunting scene is very spectacular. In modern times, hunting has become a sideline of Gaoshan people. In the customs of Amei and Penang people, group hunting is a necessary activity before and after major religious ceremonies. Ami, along the coast of Lan Yu, Amei (1998 renamed Dawu) and Sun Moon Lake are also engaged in fishing. Fishbone, harpoon, bow and arrow, fishing net, fish spoon, fish cage, bamboo cover, bamboo raft, fishing boat and other tools are usually used for fishing. Methods such as shooting fish, netting, fishing, building weirs, poisonous fish, dried fish, screen fish and luring fish were adopted. Yamei is the peak season for hunting flying fish from March to June every year. They formed a fleet on the basis of paternal descent groups and fished at night. Although Beinan, paiwan and Lukai people live by the sea, they are not engaged in fishing, but still take agriculture and hunting as their basic forms of production. Before 1949, some Bunun and Atayal ethnic groups of Gaoshan nationality still retained strong remnants of primitive communes, while Pingpu people, Paiwan people, Atayal people, Lukai people and Dawu people have surpassed the slavery society and entered the feudal society stage. Pingpu and paiwan also have tenancy relations and polarization between the rich and the poor.

Since 1949, under the control of Kuomintang, the capitalist commodity economy in Taiwan Province Province has reached a relatively developed stage, and the economy of Taiwan Province Province is known as one of the "Four Little Dragons in Asia". Under the influence and promotion of the developed commodity economy, the agriculture, fishing and hunting economy of Gaoshan nationality has undergone tremendous changes. In the areas where Gaoshan people live, modern industry and agriculture have been developed, and the living standards of Gaoshan people, especially those living in coastal areas and plains, have been greatly improved. However, the level of productivity and economic development vary greatly from place to place. The economic development of Gaoshan people living in mountainous areas is still slow, and their living standards are relatively low.
