  China News Service, Beijing, September 7 (Reporter Chen Su) "The 1.4 billion Chinese people’s jobs are firmly in their own hands." Zhang Wufeng, Director of the State Administration of Grain and Material Reserves of China, at the 2020 China International Trade in Services Fair on the 7th Said that China's food security has withstood the test and inspection of the epidemic.

The country's total grain output has stabilized at more than 1.3 trillion catties for five consecutive years. The per capita grain share is much higher than the international food security standard, and the inventory consumption ratio is far higher.

  Zhang Wufeng pointed out that food security is still a major global issue, and supply chain stability is an important foundation for food security. Since the outbreak of the global epidemic, the food supply chains of some countries and regions have been impacted, which has aroused widespread concern in the international community on food issues.

  "China will firmly implement the national food security strategy and build a higher-level, higher-quality, more efficient and more sustainable food security system." Zhang Wufeng said that China will promote the construction of a modern food supply chain to ensure food security.

The first is to promote the high-quality development of the food industry and improve the food supply chain; the second is to build a grain production and purchase promotion system to enhance the anti-risk ability of the food supply chain; the third is to deepen reforms, strengthen supervision, and strengthen the legal system of the food supply chain; fourth Expand international food exchanges and cooperation, and actively maintain the stability of the global food supply chain.
