China sets 2030 grain capacity target of 1.45 trillion jin in new five-year plan
China's Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs issued the 15th Five-Year Plan for national crop farming development on September 15, targeting a comprehensive grain production capacity of approximately 1.45 trillion jin (725 million metric tons) by 2030. The plan aims for basic self-sufficiency in cereals and absolute security in staple foods, while consolidating soybean, oilseed, cotton, and sugar crop production. A separate mechanization plan sets a goal for the comprehensive mechanization rate to exceed 80% by 2030, integrating AI and new energy technologies.

China Sets 2030 Agricultural Mechanization Goals with AI and New Energy Integration
The Chinese Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology have jointly issued the '15th Five-Year Plan for National Agricultural Mechanization Development.' The plan sets a target for the comprehensive mechanization rate for crop cultivation, planting, and harvesting to exceed 80% by 2030, with hilly and mountainous areas reaching over 75%. It also aims to accelerate mechanization in livestock, aquaculture, and primary processing of agricultural products. The plan calls for widespread application of new technologies such as artificial intelligence and new energy in agricultural machinery, and for substantially improving socialized service capabilities and disaster prevention, mitigation, and relief capacity. Five key tasks are outlined: improving supply of advanced equipment, promoting application and popularization, expanding application scenarios, enhancing mechanized production quality and disaster response, and reinforcing policy support across the industrial chain.
