What important content did Xi Jinping talk about?
What's the meaning?
Xinhua News Agency's "Learning in Progress" original brand column "Lectures" today launched an article for your interpretation.
The Central Rural Work Conference was held from the 25th to the 26th.
Prior to the meeting, General Secretary Xi Jinping presided over a meeting of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee to study the work of “agriculture, rural areas and farmers” and delivered an important speech.
Xi Jinping pointed out that in response to various risks and challenges, we must focus on the national strategic needs, stabilize the basic agricultural market, and do a good job in the "three rural" work. The measures must be hard and the execution must be strong to ensure stable production and supply, and ensure the stable development of agriculture and rural areas.
Under the impact of the epidemic in the century, the changes in the past century have accelerated, and the external environment of my country's development has become more complex, severe and uncertain.
The 20th National Congress of the Party will be held in 2022. To maintain a stable and healthy economic environment and a social environment in the country and the people’s security, development and security must be coordinated.
The people regard food as their heaven.
my country's 1.4 billion people want to eat, it is particularly important to stabilize the basic agricultural market and do a good job in the "three rural" work.
With a solid agricultural foundation, harmony and stability in the countryside, and peaceful living and working for farmers, the overall situation is guaranteed, and all tasks will be more proactive.
Xi Jinping's important speech put forward requirements for the "three rural" work from the strategic height of coordinating the two overall situations.
In the Xinhua News Agency’s bulletin, the length of this disclosure is not long, but Xi Jinping puts a heavy emphasis on every sentence.
On September 25, 2018, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, President of the State, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission arrived in Heilongjiang Province to start an inspection.

Raise a job, emphasize a strategy
Xi Jinping emphasized that ensuring the supply of primary products is a major strategic issue.
The implication is that the food issue cannot only be viewed from an economic point of view, but must be viewed from a political point of view. Guaranteeing national food security is an important foundation for economic development, social stability, and national security.
Although my country's grain production has been harvested year after year, it still cannot keep up with the rapid growth of demand and the continuous changes in structure, and the pressure on grain demand is still great.
Holding the rice bowl firmly means not tolerating fluke and tossing. Once a major problem occurs, you will be passive for many years; in your own hands, it means that you are basically self-sufficient on the basis of food, and you have to be led by others to solve the problem of food. Nose away.
Ensuring national food security is an eternal topic, and this string must not be loosened at any time.
The more we face the external environment of headwinds and currents, the more we must be clear that we must never buy or beg for food.
On the afternoon of October 22, 2021, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, President of the State, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission hosted a symposium on in-depth promotion of ecological protection and high-quality development of the Yellow River Basin in Jinan, Shandong Province and delivered an important speech.
This is before the symposium. Xi Jinping went into the field to observe the growth of soybeans when he visited the Yellow River Delta Agricultural High-tech Industry Demonstration Zone in Dongying City on the morning of the 21st.
Talking about layout, emphasizing a safety
Xi Jinping emphasized that there must be a reasonable layout, and the main production area, the main sales area, and the production and sales balance area must be protected for area and output.
This is a manifestation of risk awareness and bottom-line thinking.
In the recent period, my country's grain production and marketing pattern has changed.
For example, in the past it was often said that the transfer of grain from the south to the north is often referred to as the transfer of grain from the north to the south.
Changes in the geographical pattern have brought challenges to my country's food production and food security, and the risks of food production and dispatch are also concentrated.
Therefore, the main production area, the main sales area, and the production-sales balance area must ensure area and output.
Here Xi Jinping emphasized a very important issue: to ensure food security, everyone has the responsibility, and the party and the government must share the responsibility to achieve real results.
All provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, regardless of the amount of arable land, must bear the responsibility for grain production.
If a place really eliminates food production, it is abandoning responsibility.
To allow all parties to shoulder their responsibilities, we must come up with hard constraints.
At the same time, Xi Jinping pointed out that it is necessary to adjust the structure on the ground, expand the planting of soybeans and oilseeds, and see measurable results.
From July 22 to 24, 2020, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, President of the State, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission visited Jilin Province.
This is the afternoon of July 22. Xi Jinping inspected the land in the core demonstration area of the national standardization production base of green food raw materials (corn) of one million acres in Lishu County, Siping City.

Talking about cultivated land, emphasize a bottom line
Xi Jinping emphasized that the requirements for arable land protection must be very clear. 1.8 billion mu of arable land must be well deserved. Farmland is farmland and must be fertile land.
As early as the Central Rural Work Conference in 2013, Xi Jinping seriously emphasized that to stick to the red line of 1.8 billion acres of arable land, everyone has issued a military order and must be done, there is no room for bargaining!
In recent years, in local surveys, Xi Jinping has paid great attention to inspecting cultivated land. He stated on different occasions that the protection of cultivated land should be done like the protection of cultural relics, or even like the protection of giant pandas.
In this speech, Xi Jinping once again made clear a requirement, "It must be a good field."
The red line of arable land is not only quantitative but also qualitative.
Not only cannot it break through in terms of quantity, but also cannot be "flexible" in terms of quality.
Xi Jinping hates some bad behaviors in the balance of Occupation and Compensation.
He once severely criticized the occupation of good land, using bad land, sloping land, and raw land to replenish the balance. In the end, the balance of the book was balanced, but the quality of the cultivated land was greatly deficient.
"Isn't this self-deceiving?!" He pointed out sternly that it is very dangerous to play with the balance of cultivated land occupation and compensation, and something will happen one day.
Cultivated land is the basis for our survival.
Xi Jinping once emphasized that the foundation of ensuring national food security lies in cultivated land, which is the lifeblood of food production.
On this issue, the alarm must be sounded repeatedly.
