Xi inspects spring farming work in Changde, Hunan Province
Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, walked into a field to inspect spring farming and its preparation work during his inspection of the city of Changde in central China’s Hunan Province on Tuesday.
Sound spring farming and its preparation work is crucial to ensuring grain harvest and food security, Xi said.
All regions and departments should define their responsibilities, ensure adequate spring sowing area, refine spring field management, ensure sufficient agricultural supplies and strengthen socialized agricultural services, Xi noted.
He called for enhanced efforts to deepen the integration of high-quality seeds, farming methods, farming machinery and farmland.
Supportive policies for agriculture and farmers should be well implemented to ensure grain farmers’ income and galvanize them to plant grain so as to secure a good start in increasing grain output and farmers’ income for the whole year, Xi said.
Dos, Dont’s in developing new quality productive forces
President Xi Jinping called for focusing on high-quality development as the top priority, urging efforts to step up innovation, foster emerging industries, adopt forward-thinking plans for developing future-oriented industries and improve the modernized industrial system.
Developing new quality productive forces does not mean neglecting or abandoning traditional industries, Xi said. It is necessary to prevent a headlong rush into projects and the formation of industry bubbles, and avoid adopting just a single model of development, he noted.
Localities should take into account their own resource endowment, industrial foundation and scientific research conditions in promoting the development of new industries, models and growth drivers in a selective manner, and use new technologies to transform and upgrade traditional sectors into high-end, intelligent and green industries, he said.
