Abstract: As the largest agricultural production and trade country in the world, the agricultural policy of USA exerts significant impact on the world agricultural market. This paper combed the development stages of USA’s agricultural policy, and forecasted its tendency and the enlightenment to China’s agricultural policy. According to the differences among the main contents of USA’s agricultural policy, this paper divided its evolution into 4 stages. In the future, the USA would put more emphasis on improving agricultural insurance subsidy policy, pay attention on protecting resources and environment, and its policy would change from yellow-box to green-box. China should use some measures from USA agricultural policy for reference, such as perfecting China’s agricultural policy system from the legal height, adjusting agricultural policy according to social economy and development changes of international agricultural regulation, and adhering to the concepts of ‘people-oriented’ and sustainable development when making agricultural policy.
