In response to various problems, Chen Jizhong, chairman of the Council of Agriculture, said that a funding of 12 to 1.5 billion yuan would be set aside to put forward strategies to solve the problem. it includes counseling measures such as increasing overseas marketing subsidies, opening up new markets, media channels and national army meals to digest campus group meals, opening up e-commerce channels and housing allocation, providing relief loans for farmers, and coordinating with the Ministry of Labor to shorten the production and marketing of fishing and animal husbandry in order to reduce the impact on the industry.
