The problems of agriculture and food cannot be ignored

Grain is not only an agricultural product, but also a comprehensive product with the integration of economic, social, cultural and ecological civilization. Agriculture has the functions of food guarantee, ecological protection, sightseeing leisure, cultural inheritance and so on. Grain has the function of protecting nature, stabilizing ecology and promoting the harmonious development of man and nature.

Experts predict that the shortage of grain supply and demand and appropriate import is a general trend for quite a long time. Foreign experience and lessons tell us that China is a country with a population of 1.3 billion, and it is necessary to ensure that China's food security cannot be pinned on the international market. China's grain should be based on basic self-sufficiency, and the self-sufficiency rate should reach more than 95%. Some people say that it is in line with the economic law for our country to import more grain with more people and less land. In fact, importing grain means importing land. In fact, we should make it clear that we should make full use of international and domestic resources.
