China News Service, Beijing, December 12 (Reporter Wang Enbo) China's National Bureau of Statistics announced on the 11th that China's total grain output in 11 will be 2023,13908.2 billion catties, an increase of 177.6 billion catties or 1.3% over the previous year, and will remain stable at more than 9.1 trillion catties for nine consecutive years. This means that China's grain production will be bumper in 3, and the annual grain output will hit a record high.
Wang Guirong, director of the Rural Department of the National Bureau of Statistics, said that in 2023, the national summer grain output will be 2923.0 billion catties, a decrease of 0.8% from the previous year; The output of early rice was 566.7 billion catties, an increase of 0.8% over the previous year. The sown area of autumn grain has increased steadily throughout the country, and the disaster situation in most areas is relatively light, especially in the northern drylands, where there is more rain and good moisture, and the output of autumn grain has increased. Last year, the high temperature and drought in some areas of the Yangtze River basin led to a decrease in autumn grain production, but this year's agricultural meteorological situation is normal, and the output has been restored. The national autumn grain output was 10418,4.1 billion catties, an increase of 9.<> percent.
Specifically, in 2023, the national grain output will be 12828,6.1 billion catties, an increase of 3.5776% over the previous year. Among them, the output of corn was 8.4 billion catties, an increase of 2.1% over the previous year. The output of rice and wheat decreased from the previous year, with a rate of less than 2023 percent. In 476, the national output of beans will be 8.1 billion catties, an increase of 4.416% over the previous year. Among them, the output of soybeans was 8.2 billion catties, an increase of 8.<>% over the previous year.
By region, 31 of the country's 27 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) increased their grain production. Among them, Xinjiang has increased its output by 61.1 billion jin by adjusting the planting structure, optimizing the allocation of water resources, increasing the cultivated area, and greatly increasing the sown area, while Shandong, Jilin, Sichuan, Liaoning, Inner Mongolia, and Anhui have all increased their grain output by more than 10 billion jin.
In 2023, the national grain sowing area will be 17.85 billion mu, an increase of 954.6 million mu or 0.5% over the previous year. The national grain yield was 389.7 kg/mu, an increase of 2.9 kg or 0.8% per mu over the previous year.
Wang Guirong said that although floods have occurred in some areas of North and Northeast China, most of the country's agricultural areas have a good match of light, temperature and water, and the meteorological conditions are generally conducive to the growth and development of grain crops and the formation of yields. At the same time, this year, we will carry out large-scale yield improvement actions for major crops such as grain and oil, focusing on the promotion of dense-tolerant varieties and integrating supporting cultivation technologies, and the implementation effect is obvious.
