Open up a new chapter in the development of modern agriculture under the new normal

The Central Economic work Conference, which concluded a few days ago, made a systematic exposition on the new normal of economic development in an in-depth analysis of the international and domestic economic situation and in summing up this year's and next year's economic work. The major strategic judgment of the "new normal of the economy" profoundly reveals the new changes in the stage of China's economic development, and fully demonstrates the central authorities' far-sighted strategic vision and unalarmed strategic determination. Understanding the new normal, adapting to the new normal and leading the new normal is not only the great logic of China's economic development at present and for a period in the future, but also the general follow of the development of agricultural and rural economy.

In order to actively adapt to the new normal in the development of agricultural and rural economy, new achievements should be made in rural reform under the new normal, and if modern agriculture wants to have a new realm, it is necessary to understand the new stage of China's economic development historically and dialectically. At present, it is not only a good time for the transformation and development of agriculture, but also an inevitable stage for improving the quality and efficiency of agriculture. The "new" of the new normal means that unlike in the past, the unsustainable mode of development in the past must be abandoned; the "constant" of the new normal means that it is relatively stable and that the conditions for changing the mode of development are in place. Therefore, we must firmly grasp the overall characteristics and forms of expression of the new normal, comply with the trend, and unswervingly speed up the transformation of the mode of agricultural development. we should shift agriculture to attach equal importance to quantity and quality benefits, pay attention to improving competitiveness, pay attention to agricultural technological innovation, and pay attention to sustainable intensive development, and take the road of modern agricultural development with high output efficiency, product safety, resource saving and environment-friendly.

To open up a new chapter in the development of modern agriculture under the new normal is the only way for a traditional agricultural country to move towards a modern country, and it will also be a strong cornerstone for an ancient nation to stand erect among the nations of the world.

The financial resources are stronger, the technology is more advanced, the power is becoming more diversified, and the vitality is released day by day.

The new normal provides new opportunities for the development of modern agriculture.

Agricultural modernization, from the moment when China began its great journey of modernization, in the poor years when the people's Republic of China was waiting for prosperity, and at a time when our agriculture was still more dependent on cattle to pull ploughs, this goal has been incorporated into the national strategic blueprint, tied to the dreams of the whole nation. The stars and the moon rotate, and the world changes. Over the past 60 years, we have made great achievements on the road of industrialization, completed relatively rich accumulation in urbanization and information construction, and laid a solid foundation and gathered energy for the realization of agricultural modernization. Entering a new historical stage, the blueprint for the development of modern agriculture is clearer, the foundation is more solid, the requirements are more urgent, and the driving force is more sufficient. As China's economy enters a new normal, the trend of medium and high speed, excellent structure, new power, multi-challenges and irreversible development have brought great opportunities for the development of modern agriculture.

Strong financial resources provide a material basis for the development of modern agriculture. Under the new normal, China's economy has changed from high-speed growth to medium-to-high-speed growth, although the growth rate has slowed down, but due to the large size of the economy, the actual increment is still considerable, and the growth is more stable, the driving force is more diversified, and the quality is more optimized. At present, China has become the second largest economy in the world. In 2013, the per capita GDP is close to 7000 US dollars, and the national revenue is nearly 13 trillion yuan. On this basis, China has continuously issued various policies to strengthen agriculture, benefit agriculture and rich farmers, and build an agricultural support and protection system. In 2013, the central government spent more than 1.38 trillion yuan on agriculture, rural areas and farmers. The sustained and healthy development of the economy has provided a strong material guarantee for us to transform traditional agriculture and build modern agriculture.

Advanced technology provides a stronger driver for the development of modern agriculture. Under the new normal, with the change of population structure and the rise of factor cost, China's economic development is changing from factor-driven and investment-driven to innovation-driven. We will unswervingly follow the road of strengthening the country through science and technology, remove institutional obstacles, enhance the ability of independent innovation, and maximize the great potential of science and technology as the primary productive force. high and new technologies such as biology, information, new materials, new energy and advanced equipment manufacturing are widely used in agriculture, the support system of agricultural science and technology has been initially established, and the level of agricultural mechanization has been improved year by year. Become a strong engine for the development of modern agriculture.

The acceleration of industrialization, urbanization and informatization provides a strong tractive force for the development of modern agriculture. Under the new normal, the rapid development of industrialization, urbanization and informatization provides modern production factors, management means and technical support for the transformation of traditional agriculture. At the same time, the transfer of a large number of people to cities and towns has also made room and created conditions for the appropriate scale operation of agriculture. In recent years, with the increasing level of agricultural industrialization in China, new agricultural operators such as leading enterprises, farmers' cooperatives, big farmers and family farms have emerged, and the industrial and organizational forms required by modern agriculture are taking shape day by day.

The continuous deepening of rural reform has injected new vitality into the construction of modern agriculture. Under the new normal, we have comprehensively deepened rural reform and further released the vitality of the market. The third Plenary session of the 18th CPC Central Committee emphasized the improvement of the system and mechanism of the integration of urban and rural development, and formed a new type of urban-rural relationship between industry and agriculture, leading rural areas by city, mutual benefit between workers and farmers, and the integration of urban and rural areas. in the construction of a new agricultural management system, promoting the equal exchange of urban and rural elements and the balanced allocation of public resources, many breakthrough reform measures have been put forward. Deepening reform has once again become the main theme of China's agricultural and rural economic development, which is bound to inject stronger driving force and more vitality into the development of modern agriculture.
