The structure of grain production will be reformed prudently

Under the pattern of "twelve consecutive increases" in grain production, although some people think that a moderate reduction in grain production can be considered, "People's Daily" published an article on 15 December saying that it is very urgent to adjust grain production structure, grain production should adapt to the new normal, and grain reform should be transformed from the demand side to the supply side. In the case of relatively loose grain supply side, when adjusting the planting structure, it is necessary to transition to a balanced state of grain supply and demand, which should not be excessively reduced, but also grasp the intensity and rhythm, and tap the new potential of grain production. The focus is to promote grain production to shift from quantitative growth to equal emphasis on quantity, quality, and efficiency, and from relying on resources and material input to relying on scientific and technological progress and improving the quality of workers.
