Grain security issues are important topics of global attention. Since the beginning of this year, affected by many unfavorable factors such as the century's epidemic, Russia -Ukraine conflict, and extreme weather, the international situation has been severe and changing, which has greatly affected global food production. Many countries have issued measures to restrict food exports, further exacerbating the contradiction between supply and demand of food, and global grain prices have risen sharply. According to statistics, as of the end of May, the prices of soybeans, corn and other commodities increased by 29%and 50%. The United Nations has previously warned that humans are likely to have the largest food crisis since World War II, and up to 1.7 billion people are exposed to the destruction of grain, energy and financial systems, leading to deterioration of poverty and hunger.

Under the impact of such a severe situation, China has always regarded food security as a top priority for governing the country. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, China has established a national food safety strategy that “based on me, based on domestic, ensured production capacity, moderate import, and scientific and technological support”. The common people have stabilized the "rice bowl" to create conditions. According to data recently released by the National Bureau of Statistics, China's total grain output has stabilized more than 1.3 trillion kg of consecutive years, and the grain inventory is relatively abundant.

However, the global grain crisis reminds us again: to deeply realize the importance of improving the ability of self -protection of food; planning ahead, and always tighten the string of food safety; we must continue to grasp the production of food to ensure the stable growth of food production throughout the year, and make every effort to make every effort. Maintain national food security.

Grasp the red line of cultivated land. Cultivated land is the root of grain production and a prerequisite for ensuring food safety. We must continue to make efforts around the number, quality and use of cultivated land. The first is to ensure the number of arable land. It is necessary to sign the "military order" through the central and local governments to achieve the "military order" to achieve the real name of 1.8 billion mu of cultivated land; the second is to improve the quality of cultivated land, and we must focus on the construction of high -standard farmland around the "improvement of the quality of cultivated land", and in -depth in -depth. Promote the national black land protection project; the third is to manage the use of cultivated land, strictly implement the priority of the use of cultivated land, and the cultivated land is mainly used for the production of agricultural products and fodder feed in grain, cotton, oil, sugar, vegetables, etc. ", Basic farmland, especially high -standard farmland," non -grain ". In addition, based on the basic principles of "stabilizing grains, stabilizing corn, expanding beans, and expanding oil", adjust the agricultural structure, and make up for the shortcomings of China's grain production.

Continue to strengthen the key areas of seeds. Seeds are the "chip" of agriculture, and it is also a key factor in realizing the modernization of agriculture and rural areas. China should always tighten the seeds and not relax, and fight well. The first is to accelerate the collection of agricultural germplasm resources, strengthen the protection of germplasm resources, strengthen key core technologies for seed sources, and strive to achieve new breakthroughs The scientific and technological innovation of the seed industry, through the construction of a major national innovation platform, launched major agricultural biological breeding projects and other major projects to improve the technological support for the seed industry. Protection of intellectual property rights industry.

Actively promote the reduction of grain -saving damage. One porridge and one meal, it is not easy to think; Diligence and frugality are the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation.
