Last Updated: 2024/12/22, According to the data of the Ministry of Agriculture, at present, the degraded area of cultivated land in China has accounted for more than 40% of the total area of cultivated land, the black soil layer in Northeast China has become thinner, the soil in the south has been acidified, and the plough layer in North China Plain has become shallower, especially the low quality grade of some supplementary cultivated land, which seriously affects the output of cultivated land.

Data from the Ministry of Agriculture show that at present, the degraded area of cultivated land in China has accounted for more than 40% of the total area of cultivated land, the black soil layer in the northeast has become thinner, the soil in the south has been acidified, and the plough layer in the North China Plain has become shallower, especially the low quality grade of some supplementary cultivated land. Seriously affect the output of cultivated land.

The root of food security lies in cultivated land, and the key lies in the quality of cultivated land. Next year, the Ministry of Agriculture will vigorously promote the protection and improvement of the quality of cultivated land, with fertility improvement, soil improvement, nutrient balance and quality restoration as the main contents. focusing on the built-up areas of high-standard farmland projects, the project areas of balance between occupation and compensation, and areas with prominent problems in the quality of cultivated land, efforts will be made to improve the internal quality of cultivated land and lay a solid long-term foundation for grain and agricultural production.

The Ministry of Agriculture said that by 2020, it is necessary to ensure that 800 million mu of high-standard farmland with drought and waterlogging will be built, and the basic soil fertility of cultivated land will be increased by 0.5%, and the content of soil organic matter will be increased by 0.5%. The utilization rate of organic fertilizer resources increased by 20%, straw returned to the field reached 80%, zero growth in the use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers, and cultivated land acidification, salinization, pollution and other problems were effectively controlled.

The Ministry of Agriculture requires that the task of cultivated land quality construction is long-term and arduous. Agricultural departments at all levels should promote the formulation of relevant plans for cultivated land quality construction, actively coordinate and strive for capital investment, and try their best to do a good job in the delineation of permanent basic farmland and supplementary cultivated land quality acceptance work. We should earnestly strengthen the construction of cultivated land quality monitoring system and speed up the legislative process of cultivated land quality protection. It will make greater contributions to the steady increase of grain production, the sustained increase of farmers' income and the sustained and healthy development of the agricultural and rural economy.
