Today, grain production has been raised to a strategic height, and stabilizing grain production and increasing area has been placed at a critical juncture.
To firmly safeguard the security of the country's grain supply and do everything possible to stabilize grain production, the most important question is cultivated land, and how much cultivated land is "deserved"?
On August 25, 2021, the main data of the third national land survey (referred to as the "three adjustments") released by the official showed that the cultivated land area was 1.918 billion mu, which could hold the red line of 1.8 billion mu of arable land on the macro level, but the pessimistic clutch of grain farmers on the micro level.
In the past period of time, the peasants' grain planting environment has still not improved, the per capita cultivated land is only 1.4 acres, and most of them are scattered and scattered, the peasant households plant their own crops, this land is planted with trees, which land is planted with other cash crops, all kinds of things, are inconsistent, growing grain is not profitable, and even some have been abandoned early. There is more low-yield farming land and very little high-quality farmland, so that the country's grain self-sufficiency rate continues to decline, no one wants to grow any more food, endangering the ration problem of 1.4 billion people, and it is time to solve it.
Therefore, from top to bottom, the state's top level has repeatedly stressed that 1.8 billion mu of cultivated land is a red line, a strategic bottom line, and a safety line related to the lifeline of the country, resolutely curbing the "non-farming" of general cultivated land and the "non-grainization" of basic farmland, and placing the improvement of comprehensive agricultural production capacity in a more prominent position.
From the perspective of the distinction between mainland farmland, it is generally divided into general arable land, permanent basic farmland, and high-standard basic farmland.
In particular, the central government has also signed "military orders" for farmland protection with various localities, strictly assessed and held accountable for life to ensure that the 1.8 billion mu of cultivated land is truly deserved. However, in some localities, some localities are eager to complete tasks and implement policies in a down-to-earth manner, often misplaced, and there is an urgent need to correct or rectify the phenomenon of violating the laws of nature, destroying the ecology, letting basic farmland go up the hill and down the slopes, and creating some "strange" elephants.
Recently, the State Administration for Market Regulation (STANDARDS) approved the issuance of the General Principles for the Construction of High-standard Farmland (GB/T30600-2022) (hereinafter referred to as the General Principles), which will be officially implemented from October 1, 2022.
This "General Principle" came in too timely, and can standardize all localities to carry out land consolidation throughout the territory, effectively carry out farmland construction, and spend "money on the blade."
Farmland construction, with higher national standards, so that "cultivators have their own land", hard work can be effective.
First of all, farmland construction, higher national standards, "high" here. With the goal of comprehensively improving the quality of farmland and improving the comprehensive production capacity of agriculture, focusing on reflecting regional characteristics, facing agricultural mechanization, scale and industrialization, coordinating the construction of farmland infrastructure and the improvement of soil strength, optimizing and improving the content and technical specifications, and improving the scientificity, applicability and operability of standards.
Further refinement, from the following three points in-depth, solid progress:
1. Comprehensively consider the regional natural resource conditions, the level of economic and social development and the agricultural production base, clarify the key points and specific indicators of sub-regional construction, and facilitate all localities to organize and carry out high-standard farmland construction in accordance with "what is urgently needed to be built first, what is missing to make up for what", and reduce or eliminate the main restrictive factors affecting the comprehensive production capacity of farmland.
2. Link the results of high-standard farmland construction with grain production capacity, set the reference value of grain comprehensive production capacity standards by province and crop, and ensure that various measures for high-standard farmland construction mainly serve grain production.
3. The concept of green development runs through the whole process of high-standard farmland construction, and on the basis of optimizing the content of high-standard farmland infrastructure construction, reasonably sets the content of soil improvement, and effectively strengthens the intensive conservation and utilization of water and soil resources and ecological environmental protection.
Secondly, the construction of high-standard farmland has been promoted and planned by cascade, and the specific number of mu has been clarified. In the process of construction, full consideration will be given to the effective connection with the "National High-standard Farmland Construction Plan (2021-2030)", and adapt to the construction goals proposed in the "Planning" to ensure that by 2022, a total of 1 billion mu will be built, 1.075 billion mu will be built by 2025, 105 million mu will be transformed and upgraded, and 1.2 billion mu will be built by 2030, and 280 million mu of high-standard farmland will be transformed and upgraded. It can stably guarantee more than 1.3 trillion kilograms of grain production capacity, and by 2035, the amount and quality of high-standard farmland in the country will be further improved.
Third, the construction of high-standard farmland, the agricultural industry platform is the carrier, and the "joint agricultural belt agricultural rich peasants" is more critical. High-standard basic farmland, focusing on grain production and the effective supply of important agricultural products, needs a large industrial platform to support, promote the construction of high-standard farmland, integrate various resource advantages, agricultural modernization demonstration areas, advantageous characteristic industrial clusters, national modern agricultural industrial parks, agricultural industry strong towns or agricultural (class) characteristic towns, national agricultural science and technology parks, etc., to become effective carriers, but also to strengthen the application of science and technology, open up the "last kilometer" of agricultural technology services, and enhance extensive and inefficient agricultural production methods. Only by further forming an agricultural industrialization consortium, allowing the leading agricultural enterprises, farmers' cooperatives, and family farms to effectively participate, starting from the top-level design, setting up an innovative mechanism of "uniting farmers and rich peasants with peasants", organizing farmers, cultivating new types of professional farmers, and developing an agricultural industry platform can we effectively connect small farmers with modern agriculture, stabilize grain, stabilize area, stabilize employment, increase income, and get rich together.
Finally, the construction of high-standard farmland must have a "look back" or "inspection" mechanism to make the landing effective. Under the high standards of the grass-roots level, there will often be a misplaced implementation, and it is necessary to make the construction content and construction requirements in the eight aspects of "fields, soil, water, roads, forests, electricity, technology, and management" visible and tangible in the fields, improve the enthusiasm of farmers to grow grain, or attract more young people who identify with agriculture and take root in the countryside to become new professional farmers. In particular, when the National Development and Reform Commission issues funds to support the construction of farmland facilities, it must be "spent on the blade" and not to land on the ground to hurt the people and money.
In short, the construction of high-standard farmland lies in "hiding grain in the ground," grasping grain production, guarding grain bags, and increasing the grain self-sufficiency rate.
