The effective supply of farmers who can really do farm work is insufficient, and labor costs have increased significantly," Lei Ming said.

Vigorously promote key agricultural technology research, improve the level of research and development and application of agricultural machinery and equipment, accelerate the development of facility agriculture, and strengthen agricultural science and technology support.

　　Lei Ming said that it is necessary to explore and implement the strategy of "guaranteeing security for large farmers and ensuring livelihood for small farmers", that is, large-scale agriculture must ensure overall food security, and farmers and households must ensure their own food security and the bottom line of basic living.

At the same time, it is necessary to store grain in the city and in urban and rural households to give full play to the role of the market mechanism.

Strictly implement the main responsibility of local food security, ensure that the Chinese people's rice bowl is firmly in their own hands, and ensure food security.
