Last year, China's grain output was 114.24 billion jins, achieving a rare "eight-fold increase".

Chen Xiwen, deputy head of the Central Rural Work Leading Group and head of the office, said at the press conference held by the New China Office that last year China's grain output jumped to a new level of 1.1 trillion jin, creating a new record of trillions of yuan for five consecutive years. Among them, relying mainly on science and technology to increase the yield, the contribution rate of the increase in yield per unit was 86%.

Chen Xiwen said that last year, China’s grain production was 114.24 billion jins, an increase of 49.4 billion jins, a new step of 1.1 trillion jins, and a rare “eight-fold increase” in history, creating a new series of trillions of dollars for five years in a row. Record.

Chen Xiwen said that last year's increase in grain production has several notable features: First, summer grain, early rice, and autumn grain production increase in the quarter. The second is that rice, wheat, and corn all increase production, and the total amount of the three largest grains exceeds 1 trillion jin for the first time. Third, the contribution of commodity grain bases is large. The 13 major producing areas increase production by 44.8 billion kilograms, accounting for 90.5% of the national increase. In particular, the increase rate of all four provinces in the northeast exceeds 10%, and the increase in production is 28 billion kilograms, accounting for 56.6% of the national increase. Fourth, mainly relying on science and technology to increase yields. Last year, the yield per mu reached 688.8 jins, and the mu increased by 25.6 jins. The contribution rate of the increase in yield per unit reached 86%. Fifth, last year was to continue to substantially increase production at a high base for successive years of production increase. This is very different from the previous recovery after the reduction in production. At the same time, other major agricultural products also increase production.
