Yu Xinrong: based on flood control, drought relief and safety, pay close attention to characteristic agriculture and seize abundance.

Yu Xinrong, vice minister of agriculture, stressed when conducting research in Guangxi.

Based on flood control and drought relief, ensuring safety, paying close attention to characteristic agriculture and winning a bumper harvest.

From April 21 to 22, Yu Xinrong, vice minister of agriculture, went to Guangxi to investigate and inspect flood control work in accordance with the arrangements of the State General Administration of Flood Control. He stressed: at present, the south has entered the flood season, and all localities should resolutely implement the central plan, earnestly put flood control and drought relief in a prominent position, prepare early plans, define responsibilities early, put materials in place early, implement measures early, firmly grasp the initiative in disaster prevention and mitigation, and gain bumper harvests based on flood control and drought relief.

Yu Xinrong successively went to the Laokou Water Control Project in Xixiangtang District of Nanning City and Nanning Hydrological Station, inspected the construction of flood control dikes, hydrological monitoring, and other facilities, discussed with comrades of local water conservancy, agriculture, and other departments, and detailed the preparations for flood control and drought relief work. Not long ago, Guangxi held a regional flood control work conference and made comprehensive arrangements for flood control work. Districts, cities, counties, sick and dangerous reservoirs, and flood control projects have implemented a 24-hour duty system, which Yu Xinrong fully affirmed. He pointed out: it is necessary to comprehensively implement various measures for flood control and drought relief, strengthen organizational leadership and the implementation of responsibilities, make preparations for disaster prevention and relief as soon as possible, ensure that flood control materials are in place, and strengthen overall planning and coordination. to provide a strong guarantee for promoting stable and healthy economic development and maintaining social harmony and stability.

Yu Xinrong also inspected the modern, efficient and characteristic agricultural demonstration park in Nanning. Guangxi attaches great importance to the construction of modern agricultural demonstration zones. Regional finance and city and county finance arrange special funds to support the construction of demonstration areas by building first and then making up. At present, 12 demonstration areas have passed the acceptance check. Xixiangtang modern agricultural demonstration area mainly grows imported famous fruits and flowers with considerable benefits. Yu Xinrong pointed out: while introducing and absorbing, we should speed up the cultivation of varieties with independent intellectual property rights, develop characteristic and efficient agriculture, and drive surrounding farmers to increase production and income.

Stabilizing sugar production is also the focus of Yu Xinrong's research on this trip. At the "Shuanggao" sugar cane base in the "Sweet Light" modern characteristic agricultural demonstration zone in Fusui County, Chongzuo City, Yu Xinrong learned in detail about the construction of the base from the person in charge of the base and grass-roots cadres, patiently listened to opinions and suggestions, and came to the field to carefully check the land for deep pine and mechanical sowing. According to the comrade in charge of the regional agricultural department, the party committee and government of the autonomous region, based on the advantages of resources, optimized the layout, increased investment, and focused on building a 5 million mu high-yield and high-sugar "double-high" sugar cane base. Yu Xinrong was very happy after hearing this. He pointed out that this is a beneficial exploration to change the mode of agricultural development, optimize the agricultural planting structure, promote the green mode of increasing production, and make intensive and economical use of resources. In the next step, to develop the "double high" sugar cane base, we should strengthen the construction of farmland infrastructure, especially promote deep ploughing and deep loosening of soil, implement the technology of integrating water and fertilizer, and promote healthy sugarcane seedlings. we will work out a new way of high yield and high efficiency, resource conservation and green environmental protection.
