2017 Spring Farming Sows New Hope for Agricultural Supply Side Reform

[ China Agricultural Machinery Industry News ] "Spring equinox gets up, and it is worth a thousand dollars." After the spring equinox, the whole country went from south to north and entered the spring season of Chun Gengchun. This year is an important year for the implementation of the 13th Five-Year Plan. It is also a year of deepening the structural reform of the agricultural supply side. Can the total grain volume remain stable? Can planting structure adjustment be solidly advanced? Can the green development orientation be implemented smoothly? The answer has actually been seen in the short spring season. Spring is the season of sowing, and the seeds of summer harvest are sowed. It is the hope of the transformation of traditional production methods into a green mode, and it is the exploration of optimizing the planting structure.

2017 Spring Farming Sows New Hope for Agricultural Supply Side Reform

Grab the early catch, early spring agricultural production started well

On the seventh day of the first month of the month, people are still immersed in the atmosphere of the New Year. The peasant Wu Junxiang of Nanwangdian Village, Beilou Township, Longyan County, Hebei Province, has begun the work of spring ploughing. Busy for more than ten days, not yet in the first month, more than 100 acres of wheat has begun to suppress, irrigation, fertilization, hundreds of acres of potatoes and 100 acres of onions have been prepared for watering. In view of the fact that this spring time is short, the planting time is concentrated, and the rural labor force is relatively insufficient, Hebei Province organizes agricultural machinery personnel to enter the village in advance, speed up the cultivation and broadcasting, expand the suitable broadcasting area, and improve the quality of planting.

The year is in spring. It is of vital importance to provide a strong support for the overall economic and social development in order to capture the harvest of summer grain and promote the structural reform of the supply side of agriculture. In view of the characteristics of the spring tube spring sowing, the task is heavy, and the requirements are high, the Ministry of Agriculture has deployed the spring tube spring ploughing and planting structure adjustment work on the second day of the spring, requiring all localities to do a good job in spring farming and resolutely fight well. This year, agriculture has stabilized grain revenues, improved quality and efficiency. Northeast China to strengthen the promotion of corn and soybean storage policies, and guide farmers to prepare seeds scientifically. Early winter wheat production areas will organize early experts to formulate management opinions on spring wheat fields, implement key measures, and promote the transformation and upgrading of seedlings. The southern rice area will strengthen the construction of high-standard farmland and prepare rice paddy fields as soon as possible, laying a good foundation for timely spring sowing and sowing of all seedlings.

Not only in Hebei, but also in this year's spring ploughing and ploughing have the characteristics of quick action and early action. Shanxi Provincial Department of Agriculture intensified technical guidance, early organization of experts and technicians based on drought resistance, cold resistance, and resistance to pests and diseases, formulated and issued the "2017 Winter Wheat Field Management Opinions", and arranged for the deployment of spring field management. After the spring of this year, various organizations in Henan Province launched early, targeted technical measures for different wheat fields, and carried out classification guidance, especially the technical measures such as cultivating, topdressing, and dismantling, as early as possible, to promote the transformation and upgrading of the seedlings. Last year, slightly better than normal.

People are busy early in the morning. Due to the various measures taken before the local government to implement the Chungengchun tube and ensure that the agriculture is not wrong, the spring agricultural production starts well and the summer grain production base is good. It is understood that the area of ​​winter wheat this year is basically stable. Since the beginning of the spring, all localities have early grasped early management and implemented measures to promote weakening and strengthening. The transformation of seedlings has been faster and faster. At present, most of the wheat seedlings in the main producing areas are generally normal, which is a good year for the seedlings in recent years. In particular, rainfall has been sufficient since the autumn sowing, and the growth of dryland wheat, which accounts for more than 80% of the wheat area, is generally better than that of the previous year.

Structural adjustment, not just the area and the small

The adjustment of planting structure is not only the reduction of the area, but also the improvement of quality and ability. It is the need for agriculture to return to the market after the policy greenhouse. However, at present, large-scale agricultural products such as grain are abundant in stocks and abundant in supply. The demand elasticity of small-scale agricultural products is small, and the market space is limited. What to adjust, how to adjust, and how to stabilize, all need scientific layout and planning.

The Ministry of Agriculture requires that this year's spring ploughing will continue to solidly promote the adjustment of the crop industry structure in accordance with the requirements of stable grain, excellent economics, and expansion, and strive to work hard in the words of "tune, promote, link, and expand". “Tune” and reduce the area of ​​corn. This year, we will strive to reduce the area of ​​grain corn with non-predominant areas such as “sickle bend” by 10 million mu, and replant crops such as soybeans, miscellaneous grains and silage corn. “Improve”, optimize the variety structure, increase the marketable and effective supply, and expand the characteristic supply. "Lian", promote the integration of agriculture and animal husbandry, planting and breeding, integration of the first two or three industries, extending the industrial chain, and upgrading. “Tuo” will promote the comprehensive breeding of rice fields, promote the intercropping and multi-planting mode, vigorously develop the modern breeding industry, actively develop the processing and circulation of agricultural products, and build a modern agricultural industrial park.

Henan is the main producing province of summer grain. This year, the area planted with wheat has increased steadily, the dominant varieties are prominent, and the layout is more reasonable. Especially wheat is growing fast. Eight wheat supply-side reform pilot counties established 2.3 million mu of strong gluten wheat and weak gluten wheat demonstration bases, and the large-scale planting area of ​​wheat contiguously reached 6 million mu. At present, the pilot county strong weak gluten wheat demonstration base has signed an order agreement with the grain-using enterprises to sell wheat at a price higher than the market price of about 10%. In addition to planting wheat, it also vigorously promotes high-oleic acid oil and edible peanut varieties, and strives to build a peanut industry base. Speed ​​up the upgrading of fine varieties of melons and vegetables, increase the proportion of fine vegetables and anti-seasonal vegetables, and improve the quality of spring melons. Following the market demand, we will carry out adaptive planting in the hilly and dry farming areas of western Henan and northwestern Henan, and promote the cultivation of miscellaneous grains with regional characteristics such as millet, sweet potato and small beans.

This year, Heilongjiang continues to make planting structural adjustment a hard battle for the structural reform of the agricultural supply side. The province continued to reduce the grain corn area by 10 million mu, and vigorously develop 10 million mu of special crops such as vegetables and fresh corn. Stabilize grain production, focus on stabilizing rice production, and expand the area of ​​high-protein edible soybeans. The construction of the “Northern Vegetable South Sale” production base will be increased, and a number of vegetable export bases will be built. The planting area of ​​specialty crops such as vegetables, melons, fresh corn and potatoes will reach 10 million mu. At the same time, encourage farmers to develop high-value specialty crops such as edible fungi, northern medicine, hemp, blueberry and big scorpion.

Green development, changing the old habits of big water and big fat

Compared with previous years, "green" is the focus of this year's spring ploughing, and it is also difficult. Promoting the structural reform of the supply side of agriculture is inseparable from the green high-yield technology model and green technologies such as water saving, fertilizer saving, and medicine saving. The cost can be enhanced and the quality can be improved. However, traditional methods of production have been used for many years, and farmers have become accustomed to big water and big fertilizers. It takes a lot of effort to change old habits.

Through the joint efforts of the agricultural departments of various places, in 2016, the national pesticide use achieved zero growth, and the use of chemical fertilizers was close to zero growth. On this basis, this year's spring ploughing continues to carry out green high-yield creation, select a number of key counties to carry out the establishment of a complete system, integrate and assemble a number of technical models of cost-effective, green development, recycling, and standardized production. We will further promote the zero-growth action of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, promote the application of chemical fertilizers and pesticides to reduce and control green prevention and control technologies, and achieve cost-effective and environmentally friendly.

This year, Sichuan Province will focus on green ecology and focus on spring ploughing work, and strive to build 100 provincial-level modern agricultural demonstration parks by the end of the year, and build 2 million mu of grain production functional zones. The whole system will create a grain and oil green high-yield demonstration zone. 500, demonstrating the green transformation of grain and oil production in the province.

“The rice and shrimp are raised together and cultivated an ecological chain.” Nanxian County of Hunan Province is located in the land of fish and rice on the shore of Dongting Lake. However, due to the high production cost of rice in the past few years and the overall weak market conditions, the enthusiasm of farmers to grow grain is reduced. "The momentum is obvious. Chen Mingliang, a farmer from Bayi Village, Qingshuzui Town, Nanxian County, Hunan Province, began to develop rice paddy raising shrimp. Not only did the profit increase, but the rice fields were more ventilated and ventilated, the pests and diseases were reduced, and the crayfish were extremely sensitive to pesticides and fertilizers. Biological green prevention and control must be adopted to improve the ecological environment. In addition, the rice straw that has been burned in the past has now become the natural “feed” of crayfish, which has truly formed the ecological chain of “turning waste into treasure”.
