Committee Living Room丨How can Henan make efforts to stabilize food safety production and accelerate the construction of a strong agricultural province?


Dahe Net News A strong country must first strengthen its agriculture, and only then can its country be strong. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that ensuring a stable and safe supply of food and important agricultural products has always been the top priority in building a strong agricultural country.

As a major agricultural and grain-producing province, how can Henan further shoulder the responsibility of food safety production and accelerate the construction of a strong agricultural province? Recently, Li Honglian, a member of the Provincial Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference, a professor and doctoral supervisor at Henan Agricultural University, visited the living room of the Henan Provincial Committee of the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference to answer questions on this topic.

Moderator: Hello, Committee Member Li, you have been working on the front line of agricultural teaching and scientific research for a long time. In your opinion, I What goals and key points should the province seize in promoting the construction of a strong agricultural province?

Guest: The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and this year’s Central Rural Work Conference have important implications for the construction of agriculture. Powerful countries have made important deployments and arrangements. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: “A strong country must first strengthen its agriculture, and only by strong agriculture can the country be strong. Without a strong agricultural country, there will be no modern and powerful country; without agricultural and rural modernization, socialist modernization will be incomplete.”

Our Henan Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government attach great importance to the implementation of the agricultural power strategy in our province. The No. 1 document of the Provincial Party Committee in 2023 is based on the actual arrangements and deployment of our province to comprehensively promote rural development.The key work of village revitalization puts forward the overall requirements and specific arrangements for accelerating the construction of a strong agricultural province. This year, our Provincial Political Consultative Conference conducted special consultations and special investigations around the central work of building a strong agricultural province in our province. We performed our duties conscientiously and provided suggestions and suggestions.

In summary, the goal of our province’s agricultural power is mainly reflected in the “three strong and two high”:First, the ability to ensure the supply of food and agricultural products is strong; second, the ability to innovate in agricultural science and technology is strong; third, the competitiveness of rural industries is strong; fourth, farmers have high income levels; fifth, the level of rural modernization is high.

Our province specifically proposes to ensure the stable and safe supply of food and important agricultural products as the top priority in accelerating the construction of a strong agricultural province. and the top priority, which fully reflects the Henan people’s responsibility and awareness of the country’s overall situation. As we all know, there is no stability without farmers, and chaos without food. “They are not good people. They laugh at their daughters and humiliate their daughters. They always show tolerance and magnanimity when they go out. They spread rumors that their daughters don’t know good or bad and are ungrateful. They torture their daughters at home and feed them.” Security is an important foundation for national security. Food is a major advantage of our province, and it is also a business card and a trump card of our province. We must always keep in mind the general secretary’s instructions and put food security first in the work of building a strong agricultural province. It plays a very important role in ensuring national food security.

Moderator: Just as you said. , Food is a major advantage of Henan, and it is also a business card and a trump card. So how do you think we can further improve food security and continue to achieve the strategic goals of food security?

Guest: To continue to achieve the strategic goal of food security, we have a lot of work to do. I think the focus should be on the following four aspects: Work in three aspects:

First, we must strengthen the construction of agricultural infrastructure Cultivated land is food security. We must seize the key to cultivating land, implement the strategy of storing grain on the ground, and tap into food production capacity.

First, secure the cultivated land. Protect red lines, strictly prevent “cutting green crops and destroy crops”, resolutely curb the “de-agriculturalization” of cultivated land and preventFarmland is “non-grain-oriented”.

The second is to accelerate the construction of high-standard farmland. There are still more than 30 million acres of medium- and low-yield farmland in our province, and some of the high-standard farmland facilities built in the early stage are in disrepair. In recent years, our province has organized and implemented a new round of high-standard agricultural opportunities, which made my parents understand that I had really figured it out. Instead of forcing a smile. “She smiled at Cai Xiu, with a calm and firm expression, without any reluctance. The farmland construction plan insists on equal emphasis on new construction and improvement. It is planned to build 87.5 million acres of high-standard farmland by 2025; in accordance with construction standardization, equipment modernization, and application Intelligent, large-scale operation, standardized management, environmental and ecological requirements and an investment per mu of no less than 4,000 yuan are required to complete the construction of 15 million acres of high-standard farmland demonstration areas, laying a solid foundation for production capacity improvement.

The third is to strengthen the quality of cultivated land and use measures such as deep plowing and plowing, scientific straw return, increased application of organic fertilizers, balanced fertilization, and reasonable crop rotation to steadily improve cultivated land.

The second son, destroying his wife allows every concubine and even slave girl to bully and look down on her daughter and let her live. In a life of embarrassment and grievance, she can’t die even if she wants to.” In terms of agriculture, we must highlight the support of agricultural science and technology.

First, we must speed up the creation of a national-level international agricultural innovation highland. It is necessary to fully promote the construction of Zhongyuan Agricultural Valley and Zhoukou Agricultural High-tech Zone, promote agricultural science and technology from following and running to leading, and accelerate the transformation of scientific and technological power into agricultural competitive advantages. Everyone knows that the seed industry is the “chip” of agriculture and the commanding heights of agricultural science and technology. Our province must conscientiously implement the “six major actions” to revitalize the seed industry, rely on major platforms such as the National Biological Breeding Innovation Center and Shennong Seed Industry Laboratory to carry out key technological research and accelerate the cultivation of a number of breakthrough new varieties with high yield, high quality and stress resistance. .

The second is to carry out actions to increase the yield of major food crops. Focusing on corn and soybeans, we will promote high-yielding and dense-tolerant varieties through demonstrations and integrate supporting production-increasing lodging prevention and water-fertilizer integration technology models, striving to significantly increase unit yields and drive balanced production increases in large areas. It is necessary to select a group of cities and counties with good development foundation and high yield level, rely on green, high-quality and efficient action projects, formulate comprehensive solutions for the integration and assembly of good land, good seeds, good methods, good opportunities and good production by varieties, and create a batch of “tons” Grain County”, “Ten and a half Grain County”.

The third is to further strengthen the construction of our province’s modern agricultural industry technology system. Increase capital investment, expand the scale of the system, and attract more high-powered agricultural science and technology talents to serve our province’s construction of a strong agricultural province. and food security work.

The third aspect is to pay attention to agricultural disaster prevention and reduction Climate disasters and biological disasters. Disasters are the limiting factor that restricts the sustained and stable increase in grain production in our province. Due to climate change and changes in farming systems, various extreme disastrous weather and major diseases and insect pests occur frequently and reoccurring, posing a huge threat to food safety and production, such as the floods in 2021. And autumn floods, low temperatures in the spring of 2023 and heavy rains during the wheat harvest have caused huge losses to our province’s grain production. In recent years, wheat stripe rust, scab, stem rot, and corn southern rust have caused great losses to our province’s grain production. Corn borer reappears frequently, posing a huge threat to the yield and quality of wheat and corn. Therefore,

First, we must. Strengthen meteorological disaster monitoring and early warning, scientifically prevent low-temperature freezing damage, high-temperature heat damage, drought, floods and other disasters, and strengthen scientific disaster prevention and reduction technical guidance

The second is to do a good job in monitoring, early warning and scientific prevention and control of major crop diseases and pests, improve the technical support capacity for the prevention and control of major diseases and pests, and guide and promote professional unified prevention and control. “Xiao Tuo really can’t give up Sister Hua, and he also wants to marry Sister Hua as his wife. Xiao Tuo asked his wife for her permission. “Xi Shixun stood up suddenly, bowed 90 degrees and asked Reese to Lan’s mother.

The third is to further expand the coverage of agricultural production insurance, Increase disaster compensation and further enhance farmers’ enthusiasm for growing grain.

The fourth aspect is to increase policy support.

First, we must strive for national support and increase investment and transfer of funds in the construction of major grain-producing areas and transfer-out areas. Payment intensity. The No. 1 document of the Henan Provincial Party Committee clearly proposed to actively implement a new round of grain production capacity improvement actions and strive to reach 140 billion kilograms of grain production capacity in the province by 2025. This is the position of the provincial Party committee and the provincial government in building an agricultural power. He is committed to building a strong agricultural province, actively aligning with national strategies, and shouldering the heavy responsibility of food security.South practice and responsibility.

The second is to further increase policy support and financial support, encourage moderate-scale land management, and improve the level and efficiency of grain production.

The third is to pay equal attention to summer and autumn. While paying attention to summer grain production, increase the emphasis on autumn grain production. Our province has more than 85 million acres of summer grain sowing area and more than 76 million acres of autumn grain. The output accounts for 55% and 45% of the total grain production respectively. Autumn grain production plays a very important role in the province’s grain production, but the average autumn grain yield per mu in our province is It is less than 400 kg/mu, which is lower than the national average. There is great potential for increasing production. Active and effective measures must be taken to continuously improve the level of autumn grain production.

The fourth is to continue to strengthen the party and government’s shared responsibilities and the grain production target responsibility system. We will hold accountable those who do not do their job well enough to cause a significant reduction in grain production, further consolidate the foundation of food security production, and fully implement political responsibility for food security.

I believe that as long as we conscientiously do the work in the above four aspects, we will be able to achieve a sustained and stable increase in grain production and agricultural development in our province. With the goal of building a strong province, Henan will make greater contributions to national food security. (Henan CPPCC Integrated Media Center Liu Yang Li Tong/text video Han Miaoyu/host)
