In the future, will China's uncultivated land rely entirely on imports of grain? What the expert said this time is quite reliable.

Autumn is the season when all kinds of crops mature one after another. recently, farmers can be seen busy harvesting rice in farmland all over southern Henan. However, when they were busy with the harvest, there was little smile and joy on their faces, and Lao Li's face was even more sad.

It was only after talking with him that I discovered his inner worry: grain prices have remained low in recent years, with less than 200 yuan per mu of rice grown for a year, and I am nearly 60 years old. I don't know how many more years I can hold on in the field according to my physical strength and labor intensity.

Lao Li's words reflect a reality in today's China: there are fewer and fewer people farming in the countryside. In order to obtain more income, young workers in rural areas have chosen to make a living in cities, resulting in a general shortage of labor force engaged in farmland farming across the country. According to statistics, in some rural areas of the central and western regions, 80% of the farmers are 50 to 70 years old, who do not understand modern agricultural technology and are too old to cultivate, resulting in most of the rural land being abandoned.

At present, the number of agricultural employees in China is decreasing, and the pattern of lack of successors in agricultural production is gradually intensifying. This situation has led to the problem of food security in China: with the aging of the rural population becoming more and more serious, there is no one to cultivate land in China, who will guarantee the food supply of our country? Can China rely entirely on imports of grain from abroad? In this regard, the opinion given by experts is that the method of importing all grain from abroad is not advisable.

It is said that food is the most important thing for the people, and food security is a major event related to the national economy and people's livelihood. China, as a large country with a population of 1.4 billion, has a very large number of food rations plus all kinds of grain used for feed and grain and oil processing every year. Although China's soybeans have been partly dependent on imports from abroad, due to China's total grain demand is too large, the idea of using imports to fill China's grain gap is not realistic.

On the other hand, grain imported from abroad is priced entirely by the international grain market, and China does not hold their international pricing power, so it must passively bear the risk of speculation in the international market, thus losing the initiative in the transaction. If we blindly rely on imported grain from abroad, the price of international grain will gradually rise under the stimulation of China's huge demand, and China will only be forced to pay for high-priced grain. Once it is monopolized by foreign companies, it will directly endanger the food security of our country.

In view of this, the rice bowls of the Chinese people must be firmly grasped in their own hands. China, as a large agricultural country, must not relax its agricultural production. However, nowadays, there are fewer and fewer people farming in rural areas, and a large amount of farmland has been abandoned, and so on. Under such circumstances, only developing large-scale modern agriculture is a good way out. Only by devoting ourselves to the mechanization of agriculture and training and developing more professional agricultural technical personnel can we ensure that China's food security is not threatened.
