China's Agriculture Ministry Urges Full Effort for Autumn Harvest and Winter Planting to Secure 2025 Grain Output
China's Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs held a national video conference on 'Three Autumns' (san qiu) agricultural production, chaired by Minister Zhang Zhu. The meeting emphasized the need to spare no effort in completing autumn harvest, autumn planting, and autumn management tasks to ensure a bumper grain and agricultural output for the full year. It called for advancing autumn-winter planting in a timely manner to lay a solid foundation for next year's grain and oilseed harvest. Specific requirements included ensuring balanced supply of 'vegetable basket' products, strengthening quality and safety supervision of agricultural products, continuing comprehensive regulation of hog production capacity, accelerating high-quality development of grass-fed livestock, enhancing animal disease prevention and control, and improving production-to-market linkages to guarantee stable and secure supply of grain and other key agricultural products. The meeting also stressed safety in autumn-winter agricultural operations, focusing on key areas such as ocean fishing vessels, agricultural machinery, and confined space work, with thorough risk inspections and preventive rescue measures to prevent major accidents.

On September 21, China's Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs held a national video conference on autumn agricultural production, chaired by Minister Zhang Zhu. The meeting emphasized several key tasks: closely monitoring the impact of a super El Niño climate event, refining emergency plans for meteorological disasters and pests, and steadily advancing the construction of high-standard farmland. It also called for the restoration of irrigation ditches, management of plain waterlogging areas, and improvement of emergency grain drying and storage capabilities to enhance disaster prevention and mitigation. The ministry stressed stabilizing winter wheat production by securing planting areas and improving seedling quality to lay a foundation for next year's summer grain harvest. Other measures include promoting integrated water and fertilizer techniques, ensuring stable fertilizer supply and prices, and coordinating the supply of 'vegetable basket' products. The meeting also highlighted the need for continued regulation of hog production capacity, development of grass-fed livestock, and strict safety inspections in fisheries, farm machinery, and confined spaces to prevent major accidents.

On September 21, China's Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs held a national video conference on autumn agricultural production. The meeting emphasized the need to stabilize winter wheat production by securing sown area and improving sowing quality, combining growth control and strengthening to cultivate strong seedlings before winter, thereby laying a solid foundation for next year's summer grain output. It called for integrating agricultural machinery and agronomy to boost rapeseed yields and increase oil crop production through multiple measures. The ministry stressed close monitoring of the super El Nino climate impact, detailing emergency plans for meteorological disasters and pests/weeds. It urged solid progress in constructing high-standard farmland, continuing the repair and renovation of field ditches and drainage in plain waterlogged areas, and accelerating the upgrade of emergency response capabilities such as drying and storage to enhance agricultural disaster prevention, mitigation, and relief. The meeting also called for ensuring stable supply and prices of fertilizers and promoting water-saving and fertilizer-saving technologies like fertigation to guarantee agricultural production needs.

China's Agriculture Ministry Urges Vigilance on Super El Nino, Farmland Upgrades
On September 21, China's Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs held a national video conference on autumn agricultural production. The meeting emphasized the need to stabilize winter wheat production by securing sown areas and improving sowing quality, combining growth control and promotion to cultivate strong seedlings before winter, thereby laying the foundation for next year's summer grain output. It called for integrating agricultural machinery and agronomic techniques to boost rapeseed yields and increase oilseed production through multiple measures. The ministry stressed the importance of closely monitoring the impact of a super El Niño climate pattern, refining emergency plans for meteorological disasters and pests, and solidly advancing the construction of high-standard farmland. It also urged continuous efforts to repair and renovate field ditches, manage waterlogging in plains, and accelerate the improvement of emergency response capabilities such as grain drying and storage. Additionally, the meeting called for stabilizing fertilizer prices and ensuring supply, promoting water-saving and fertilizer-efficient technologies like integrated water and fertilizer application, to meet agricultural production needs.
China's Agriculture Ministry Urges Stable Wheat Sowing, Enhanced Harvest Readiness for Autumn
On September 21, China's Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs held a national video conference on 'Three Autumns' agricultural production. The meeting emphasized the need to closely manage autumn crop harvesting, organize agricultural machinery supply-demand matching, and use favorable weather for grain collection. It called for stabilizing winter wheat production by securing sowing areas and improving quality, combining growth control and strengthening to cultivate strong seedlings before winter, laying the foundation for next year's summer grain output. The ministry urged integrating agricultural machinery and agronomy to boost rapeseed yields and increase oil crop capacity. It stressed monitoring the impact of a super El Niño climate pattern, refining emergency plans for meteorological disasters and pests, advancing high-standard farmland construction, repairing field ditches, managing plain waterlogging, and improving emergency capabilities for drying and storage. The meeting also demanded stable fertilizer supply and prices, promoting water-saving and fertilizer-saving technologies. Additionally, it called for balanced supply of 'vegetable basket' products, strengthened quality supervision, continued comprehensive regulation of hog production capacity, accelerated high-quality development of grass-fed livestock, enhanced animal disease prevention, and improved production-marketing coordination to ensure stable and safe supply of grain and key agricultural products. Safety production in autumn and winter was also highlighted, focusing on fishing vessels, agricultural machinery, and confined spaces to prevent major accidents.
