Happy to see the rice and the thousand heavy waves of rice and the fertile fields are busy with a bumper harvest

【Celebrating a bumper harvest】

In the golden autumn of September, the fields are fertile and the rice is fragrant. With the heavy joy, the autumn grain harvest gradually spread out, and a pleasant autumn harvest picture came to the face.

Harvesting rice, drying rice, putting grain into storage... Over the past few days, Lei Min, a major grain grower in Jinji Village, Lishi Town, Dingnan County, Jiangxi Province, has been very busy. "This year, I planted more than 340 mu of early rice, and with the help of modern machinery throughout the whole process, relying on the high yield of rice seeds, a total of 200,000 kilograms of grain were hit." Lei Min's face was full of relief. In another month, he will plant wheat on the ploughed land, hoping to get a good harvest the following year.

At the Suibin Farm of Heilongjiang Beidahuang Agricultural Reclamation Group, a bumper harvest of black soil after fallow rotation is in sight. "My rice field has ended this year, and at the beginning I was worried about using less fertilizer and whether the yield could come up, but don't say, this year's rice growth is really good." Three years of fallow farming has significantly increased soil fertility, and compared with previous years, the incidence of rice has decreased this year, and it is another bumper harvest year. Zhao Chengcheng, a grower in the Guangxin Management Area of Suibin Farm, was full of smiles.

The northern part of Binzhou, Shandong is close to the Bohai Sea, with a large area along the beach, flat terrain and sufficient sunlight, which is one of the production bases of sea salt in the country. In addition to salting, locals also cultivate shrimp in the primary evaporation ponds of the salt pans, commonly known as the salt pan shrimp. Recently, these 700,000 mu of salt field shrimp ushered in a bumper harvest. According to the staff, this year's shrimp production in yantian is expected to increase by about 30% over the same period last year. In addition, Haiyan will also usher in a large-scale harvest next month.

Cold and summer, autumn harvest and winter hiding. Also busy with the harvest are the people of Dai Township. In Jinghong City, Xishuangbanna, Yunnan Province, tens of thousands of mu of characteristic grapefruit enter the harvest season. Local fruit farmers are stepping up the picking, and then selling Daixiang grapefruit to various places through e-commerce, live broadcasting and other forms. The booming characteristic agriculture is lighting up the happy life of local farmers.

"The mud of the new construction field is flat, and the family plays rice to take advantage of the frost. The laughter and song are lightly thunderous, and the flails sound until the light of the night. "In the old threshing ground, the sound of threshing has gone away, replaced by modern agricultural machinery operations and a grand blueprint for modern agriculture.

In the rice field demonstration area of Tangtou Town, Tongren Sinan County, Guizhou, layers of rice waves surged with the wind, and the smell of rice was refreshing. Under the scorching sun, the rice harvester is in full swing in the "Xiangliangyou 619" test field, cutting ears, threshing, and separating slag grains in one go, and the links are all showing the efficiency and convenience brought by mechanization to agriculture.

Food is the head of the government, and food is safe in the world. For a large country with a population of 1.4 billion, such as China, only by firmly holding the rice bowl in its own hands and stabilizing the "ballast stone" of food security can we enhance our determination and confidence in coping with various risks and challenges. It is gratifying that this year, China's summer grain output hit a record high, which not only stabilized the people's "rice bags" but also laid a deep foundation for a bumper grain harvest throughout the year. Now that the autumn grain has ushered in the harvest season, farmers everywhere are playing a new harvest song with their hard hands.

"The fundamentals of this year's autumn grain harvest are still good, which is reflected in the increase in area and the overall good growth of autumn grain crops." At a recent news conference, Wei Baigang, spokesman for the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, chief economist, and director of the General Office, analyzed the situation of grain production this autumn.

Wei Baigang introduced: This year is the first year in which the party and government share the same responsibility for food security in our country; all localities have attached great importance to it, compacted their responsibilities at all levels, made great efforts to rectify the "non-agricultural" and "non-grainization," reclaimed wasteland, tried every means to tap the potential of grain area, and increased the area of autumn grain, especially the area of corn, a high-yield crop, which has increased considerably.

The latest dispatch from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs shows that at present, there is still about half a month before the large-scale harvest of autumn grain, the corn and rice in the northeast region have entered the wax ripening period, the Huanghuaihai corn has entered the milk ripening to wax ripening period, the southern middle rice has been gradually matured and harvested, the double-cropping late rice is being harvested in pregnant ears, the southwest region has been harvested more than halfway, and the autumn grain harvest has been gradually unfolded. Generally speaking, except for a few areas that have been affected by disasters, most of the autumn grain crops in the country have grown better than last year and in normal years, and a bumper autumn grain harvest is in sight.

In the face of extreme disasters and weather tests, and the unfavorable conditions of frequent occurrence of diseases and insect pests, it is very difficult to seize this year's autumn grain harvest. Behind this, it is inseparable from policy support, inseparable from the help of science and technology, and even more inseparable from the hard work of the vast number of farmers.

On September 23 this year, the autumn equinox of the lunar calendar, China will usher in the fourth Chinese farmers' harvest festival. "This year's summer grain and early rice harvest are gratifying, and the autumn grain is also very basic, and we are confident of seizing a bumper grain harvest throughout the year." Ma Youxiang, deputy director of the Steering Committee for the Organization of the Chinese Farmers' Harvest Festival and vice minister of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said: According to the agricultural proverb, "the harvest will be fixed on August 15," the people of the whole country will celebrate the festival with the joy of a bumper harvest, and this year's harvest festival will have both a bumper harvest and an increase in income.
