Hey everyone! Chinese Premier Li Qiang has put the spotlight on our food security by urging local authorities to keep a tight rein on the supply of grains and key farm produce. His clear message? We need to make sure that every grain, every crop, counts in reaching the country’s annual production target. 🌾
In his recent instruction on spring agricultural production, Li—also a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee—stressed that agriculture and rural development must remain top priorities. The goal is to boost crop yields while strengthening support systems for farmers and rural areas, ensuring that modern technology and innovative practices are part of the new farming era.
The call for action was echoed by Chinese Vice Premier Liu Guozhong at a national conference in Suqian, Jiangsu Province. Liu highlighted efforts like accelerating the use of advanced agricultural machinery and improving disaster response mechanisms—all aimed at stabilizing planting areas for grains and oil crops. 🚜
This proactive approach not only safeguards food supply but also boosts rural revitalization and economic growth, paving the way to achieve a grain output target of around 700 million tonnes by 2025. It’s an inspiring reminder that investing in agriculture today will yield a deliciously secure tomorrow!
