目的：分析我国控烟政策问题的经济层面。方法：利用已公布和收集的调查数据，分析吸烟的经济后果。结果：在农业部门中，烟草是所有经济作物中经济回报率最低的。与此同时，烟草行业对中央政府的税收贡献一直在下降。结论：随着人们越来越多地认识到吸烟对人口健康的负面影响，经济收益变得不那么重要。中国站在一个十字路口，要兑现世界卫生组织《烟草控制框架公约》的经济承诺，促进人民健康。
Objective: To analyse economic aspects of tobacco control policy issues in China.Methods: Published and collected survey data were used to analyse economic consequences of smoking. Economic analysis was used to address the role of tobacco farmers and the cigarette industry in the Chinese economy.Results: In the agricultural sector, tobacco has the lowest economic rate of return of all cash crops. At the same time, the tobacco industry's tax contribution to the central government has been declining.Conclusion: Economic gains become less important as the negative health impact of smoking on the population garners more awareness. China stands at a crossroads to implement the economic promises of the World Health Organization's Framework Convention on Tobacco Control and promote the health of its population.
