The 12th five-year Plan, which is about to pass, is an extraordinary five years. Stable economic and social development has been achieved, among which the achievements in agricultural and rural economic development are particularly remarkable: grain output has exceeded 1.1 trillion jin for five consecutive years and 1.2 trillion jin for three consecutive years; the supply of major agricultural products such as cotton oil, sugar, meat, eggs and milk is adequate, and the quality of agricultural products has improved steadily; farmers' income has increased by double digits every year, which is higher than that of GDP for five consecutive years and higher than that of urban residents. The level of modern agriculture has improved significantly and the main indicators such as the effective irrigated area of farmland the contribution rate of agricultural scientific and technological progress and the comprehensive mechanization level of major crops continue to rise. The Chinese people firmly put their rice bowls in their own hands, and the farmers' pockets are getting bigger and bigger. It can be said that after five years of climbing and continuous climbing, the development of agricultural and rural economy has stood on a new historical high.

But at the same time, at this high point, we are also facing many old problems and new challenges. The agricultural foundation is still weak, the difficult problems such as the small scale of operation and the lack of scientific and technological support capacity have not been fully solved, and the various supporting elements of agricultural production are becoming more and more tight. With the bumper harvest in successive years, the prices of agricultural products have also declined, which has had some impact on the increase of farmers' income and production enthusiasm. During the 13th five-year Plan, it is more difficult to maintain the sustained and stable development of the agricultural and rural economy, and agriculture has entered a critical period of high-point attack and high-level protection.

The deeper you enter, the more difficult it is to enter. Especially under the background of successive bumper harvests of agriculture, under the background of declining financial income and increasing burden, there are some views and voices of relaxing or even neglecting agriculture in society. We should have a clear understanding of this. One porridge and one rice seems mundane, but it is indispensable. Agriculture is a strategic industry to stabilize the world and people's livelihood, which is related to increasing the income of hundreds of millions of farmers, ensuring the basic livelihood of the people, and supporting the overall situation of economic and social development.

Moreover, although the agricultural and rural economy has made remarkable achievements in the past five years, agricultural modernization still lags behind and is still "short legs" compared with industrialization, informationization and urbanization. It is impossible for us to sprint towards the goal of being well-off in an all-round way with a "short leg". According to the proposal of the 13th five-year Plan of the Central Committee, agricultural modernization is the basis for building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way and realizing modernization. This is a new major judgment made by the central government on the basis of profoundly grasping the law of modernization development, indicating that the basic, strategic, and overall position of agriculture has become more prominent. We should take the spirit of the Fifth Plenary session of the 18th CPC Central Committee as a guide, unswervingly adhere to the position of agriculture as the foundation, vigorously promote agricultural modernization, and strive to achieve new breakthroughs and reach a new level.

Whether we can successfully get through this critical period depends on whether the thinking is right and whether the measures are effective. We must enhance our sense of hardship, take the initiative, comply with the development trend, actively promote the "transformation of the mode and structure" of agriculture, and work hard. Of course, it is not to work recklessly and hard, but to find the right direction of force. in view of the constraints and problems existing in the current agricultural development, we must seek a breakthrough: we must abandon the already unsustainable way of fighting for resources and consumption, flood and fertilizer in exchange for high yield. rely on scientific and technological progress and the improvement of the quality of workers to tap new growth potential; we must attach equal importance to quantity and quality and seek win-win economic, social and ecological benefits. We must rely on deepening reform, further stimulate the vitality of agricultural and rural development, rely on innovation-driven, create a strong engine of high-point attack and high-level protection, and drive agriculture to finally realize the transformation and upgrading from traditional to modern. It will lay a solid foundation for the coordinated development of the "four modernizations" and building a well-off society in an all-round way.
