Failure to reduce production in case of disaster depends on technical support and institutional guarantee.

Huaxian County is the largest grain-producing county in Henan Province and the first wheat county in China. It is known as the "granary of northern Henan". Huaxian County always keeps in mind the political responsibility of ensuring national food security, regards stable grain income as the core task, and vigorously promotes the development of modern agriculture. In 2014, the summer grain production in Huaxian County successively overcame the unfavorable factors such as the late rise in temperature in dry and spring, and the moderate severity of diseases and insect pests in the middle and later stages, and then won a bumper harvest, with a total yield of 861800 tons of wheat, and the area, per unit yield and total yield of summer grain reached record highs again, successfully achieving a balanced increase in production for 12 consecutive years. The area of autumn grain has increased by 15200 mu over the previous year, reaching 1.0604 million mu. The leading varieties of corn are outstanding, science and technology are popularized in place, the occurrence of diseases and insect pests is relatively light, and the "12 consecutive increases" of total grain output are expected to be realized.

Multiple support for not reducing production in case of disaster

Improve irrigation and water conservancy facilities. In recent years, Huaxian County has solidly promoted the capital construction of irrigation and water conservancy throughout the county, the situation of water conservancy infrastructure has been significantly improved, and its ability to resist natural disasters has been significantly enhanced. There are 1208 trunk canals and 39000 motor wells in the county, with an effective irrigation area of 1.57 million mu and an area of 1.15 million mu protected by drought and waterlogging. Although the total precipitation 232.6mm since June is lower than that of the previous year and 115.7mm, the improvement of water conservancy facilities and scientific drought resistance have effectively ensured the normal production of autumn grain.

Innovate the mode of creating high yield. The matching of fertile land and good laws, and the simultaneous promotion of infrastructure construction and scientific and technological services are the outstanding highlights of grain production in Huaxian County this year. As one of the 50 whole-system grain high-yield pilot counties identified by the Ministry of Agriculture, on the one hand, scientific and technological service projects are centrally integrated and uniformly released to high-standard grain field demonstrators. 6 modern agrometeorological science and technology demonstration parks, 18 agro-meteorological remote detection systems and 9 agro-technology extension regional stations planned by the county are all built in the high-standard grain field demonstration area. This year, the county's 15 high-yield wheat to create 10,000 mu square, all arranged in the already built Liugu 100000 mu and Baimapo high-standard grain field demonstration square. Explore and popularize the creation model of "one set into six Unification". The high-yield cultivation techniques such as returning straw to the field, sowing at the right time, formula fertilization for soil testing, backward movement of nitrogen fertilizer, unified control of diseases and insect pests and other high-yield cultivation techniques were assembled and popularized; unified supply of leading varieties, unified soil testing formula fertilization, unified training guidance, unified machine ploughing and machine sowing, unified disease and pest control, unified mechanical timely harvest, realized the organic integration of good farmland and agronomy.

Strengthen scientific and technological services. Through science and technology subcontracting, technology network combination, unified flight defense and other measures to provide scientific and technological support. The county has basically achieved the county-wide coverage of automatic meteorological detection instruments, effectively improving the level of meteorological services for agriculture. Carry out in-depth activities of "100 scientific and technological personnel pack thousands of villages", organize 208agricultural technicians, subcontract 1019 administrative villages throughout the county, promote the scientific management and development of wheat, the application of cultivated land resources management information system, soil testing and formula fertilization expert system, online recommendation system, seedling and soil moisture timely monitoring system, greatly improved the pertinence and scientific nature of the guidance. The use of plant protection helicopters to create a free unified flight defense in the demonstration area for high yield, the use of long-distance air-fed sprayers to control diseases and insect pests in the middle and later stages of corn, and the use of multi-rotor drones to launch red-eyed peaks to control corn borer. Farmers vividly said that "the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests is really a combination of aircraft, artillery, and bombs."

Promote the institutional innovation of modern agriculture

Strengthen the promotion of organizational leadership. Huaxian County has set up an agricultural headquarters under the responsibility of the main leaders of the county party committee to comprehensively coordinate and solve the difficulties and problems encountered in grain production, coordinate farmland construction projects in various departments, and scientifically use policy funds. We have established and improved the system for commanders to contact villages and towns, the system of incentives, rewards and punishments, and the supervision system, implemented the assessment mechanism for grain production, and the "three guarantees" mechanism for county leaders to guarantee the arrival of townships, township leading villages, and village cadres. bring modern agricultural work into the responsibility target assessment system, and conduct a comprehensive assessment and evaluation of county departments and villages and towns.

We will solidly promote the construction of high-standard grain fields. Huaxian County through scientific planning and integration of resources, break the boundaries of villages and towns, adhere to concentration, and increase the intensity of large-scale development. 1.55 million mu of high-standard grain fields are planned in the county, and 930000 mu have been built. A super-generous high-standard grain field with an area of 500000 mu has been planned and built, which has become the demonstration area of high-standard grain field with the largest scale, the highest standard and the best benefit in Henan Province. At the same time, supporting agricultural technology extension regional stations, modern agrometeorological science and technology demonstration parks, agricultural machinery professional cooperatives, grain planting cooperatives and other service organizations have formed a good production pattern of "field formation, forest network, road connection, canal connection, drought irrigation, waterlogging drainage, excellent science and technology, and high yield".

Build agricultural industrialization clusters. Huaxian County combined with the advantages of resources to create five major agricultural industrialization clusters of seed industry noodles meat fruits and vegetables forest products with remarkable results. Xin'an Noodle industrialization Cluster in Huaxian County and Aidi Jia Forest Product industrialization Cluster in Huaxian County are identified as provincial agricultural industrialization clusters. There are more than 50 agricultural industrialization enterprises in the county, with an annual processing capacity of more than 500,000 tons of flour and more than 1.3 million tons of feed. The brand efficiency has been significantly improved. The "Huafeng" brand trademark of Huafeng seed Industry has won the well-known trademark in China, and Red-Cooked Chicken, Daokou Style and Baliying muskmelon have been protected by National Geographic indication products.

We will speed up the cultivation of new types of agricultural operators. By formulating preferential policies, cultivating advanced models, vigorously supporting and cultivating new types of agricultural operators, promoting the standardized management of large farmers, farmers' cooperatives and family farms, encouraging the transfer of land, and developing appropriate scale operation, it has promoted the development of agriculture with local characteristics and effectively increased agricultural efficiency. The number of farmers' professional cooperatives in the county has grown to nearly 3000, with a rural land transfer area of 420900 mu.

Innovate the service system of modern agricultural technology. Huaxian County has set up a three-tier expert service team. Relying on the national key leading enterprise Huafeng seed industry, set up academician expert workstations and well-known expert service groups; organized county agricultural technology, soil fertilizer, plant protection, agricultural machinery and other experts to set up a technical expert group, specifically responsible for Huaxian grain production technical plan formulation, training and other work. A county agricultural comprehensive service center with technical consultation and science and technology training functions has been built, nine township agricultural technology extension regional stations have been set up across townships, 1600 science and technology demonstration households have been cultivated, and the "science and technology service position" at the county, township and village levels has been continuously solidified. through the "last kilometer" of agricultural technology promotion.

Policy suggestions on stabilizing the "granary under the world"

The work of promoting modern agriculture in Huaxian County has its own characteristics, many highlights and good results, but there are also some difficulties and problems that need to be paid great attention to, further innovate policies and policies that benefit farmers and rich farmers, and promote the sound and rapid development of modern agriculture.

We will further increase financial support and subsidies. It is suggested that we should increase the financial transfer payment to the major agricultural counties, let the local governments have peace of mind to grasp the grain production, further increase the subsidies for supporting agriculture and benefiting farmers, further raise the standard of subsidy for improved varieties, and provide improved varieties free of charge to the main grain producing areas. We will greatly increase subsidies to grain farmers, ensure that their grain-growing income is roughly equal to that of migrant workers, safeguard their vital interests, and better protect and mobilize their enthusiasm for growing grain.

Further consolidate the construction of agricultural infrastructure. It is suggested that we should establish and improve the work coordination mechanism, integrate the funds of agriculture-related projects, solve the problems of many project names, non-uniform standards, scattered funds and many implementation departments, and play a greater role in the development of modern agriculture; further increase investment, promote the construction of irrigation and water conservancy facilities, and ensure that drought and waterlogging can be drained in major agricultural counties, benefiting the broad masses of farmers.

We will further standardize the development of new types of agricultural operators. It is suggested that the standardized management of new business entities should be strengthened. Clarify the relationship of property rights, improve the coordinated operation of the organizational structure, improve the financial management system, fair and rational distribution of income, regularly open social affairs, and safely carry out credit cooperation. Carry out business training and train a group of farmers' cooperative operation and management talents who are good at operation, good at management and dedicated. We will further promote the construction of demonstration societies and create a good atmosphere for standardizing the operation of co-operatives, catching up with learning, and striving to create advanced ones.

We will further strengthen policy support for the development of modern agriculture. It is suggested that the policy tilt should be strengthened in the aspects of credit, taxation, land, electricity and so on. We will encourage and support the transfer of contracted land to farmers' cooperatives, family farms and large grain growers, develop moderate scale operation, and promote intensive and large-scale grain production. Preferential policies will be introduced to guide grain processing enterprises to actively invest in processing projects in major grain counties. We will vigorously promote the construction of high-standard grain fields, agricultural industrialization clusters, and urban ecological agriculture, and realize the leap from traditional agriculture to modern agriculture and from big agricultural counties to strong agricultural counties.
