Bao Zongshun: How to Lead the Leader in Jiangsu Agricultural Modernization

General Secretary Xi Jinping's investigation in Jiangsu this time paid special attention to the development of modern agriculture, the prosperity of the rural economy, and the work of "agriculture, rural areas and farmers", especially how Jiangsu, as an economically developed region, plays an exemplary and leading role in promoting agricultural modernization. To lead the country's agricultural modernization and lead the way has become a glorious and arduous mission currently undertaken by the party committees and governments at all levels and all sectors of society in the province.

Raising the level of awareness

active planning and deployment

as a coastal economically developed province, Jiangsu has resolutely implemented a series of guidelines and policies of the central government on strengthening the work of "agriculture, rural areas and farmers" since the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan", and put agricultural modernization in the overall plan of building a well-off society in an all-round way and taking the lead in basically realizing modernization. Take the in-depth implementation of the agricultural modernization project as the overall starting point, and comprehensively promote various tasks. At present, the development momentum of agricultural modernization in Jiangsu is good. Among the 24 main indicators set in the province's "Twelfth Five-Year" modern agricultural development plan, except for the two indicators of "the proportion of high-standard farmland in the province" and "the proportion of effective irrigation area of farmland", the other indicators have reached or exceeded the schedule. Among them, 9 indicators have achieved the predetermined target value two years in advance.

The coming year of 2015 is not only the closing year of the 12th five-year Plan, but also the year of the 13th five-year Plan. Comrades of party and government departments at all levels in the province should not only firmly regard the work of "agriculture, rural areas and farmers" as the top priority in ideological understanding, but also realize that agricultural modernization is the foundation and support of national modernization, and at present it is still a prominent "deficiency", the key difficulties of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way and modernizing the country are still in the countryside. my country's economic development has entered a new normal, and accelerating the promotion of agricultural modernization is of great significance to stable growth, structural adjustment, and people's livelihood; in action, it is all the more necessary to actively implement the requirements of the General Secretary for the development of modern agriculture in Jiangsu, and to build Jiangsu into a modern modern agricultural industry system based on equipment, supported by modern technology, characterized by modern management, and with high comprehensive agricultural benefits, take the lead in the country to achieve the strategic goal of agricultural modernization and carefully plan and actively deploy.

grasp the development opportunity

meet the series of challenges

to promote the development of agricultural modernization in Jiangsu, opportunities and challenges coexist. On the one hand, we must grasp the current series of good development opportunities: the party and the country attach great importance to the "three rural" issues, and always insist on the "three rural" work as the top priority of the party's work; the continuous improvement of the agricultural policy system is modern Agricultural development provides a good environment; comprehensively deepening reforms provide new impetus for the development of modern agriculture; increasingly strong economic strength provides a strong material foundation for the development of modern agriculture; the rapid advancement of urban-rural integration process provides a favorable opportunity for the development of modern agriculture; domestic first-class scientific research institutes provide strong intellectual support for the development of modern agriculture.

On the other hand, we must also clearly understand and meet the current series of challenges with a positive and enterprising spirit: Jiangsu has more people and less land, and the pressure on resources and environment is increasing; agricultural infrastructure is still weak, and the province's cultivated land is medium and low-yield fields Still account for a certain proportion, some farmland drainage and irrigation facilities are aging, and the construction of farmland roads and bridges is lagging; agricultural public service guarantees are still insufficient, and the prediction of crop diseases and insect pests is not high, the ability of animal disease prevention and emergency disposal is not strong, the breeding industry is not updated quickly, the supply rate is not high, agricultural technology services are difficult to meet the diversified needs of farmers, the docking with market agriculture is not tight, the coverage of information services is not complete, and the information dissemination channels are insufficient; the comparative efficiency of agriculture is still low, the incentive effect of policies on grain producers is declining year by year, and the enthusiasm of farmers to grow grain is not high.

Clear development goals

comprehensively deepen reform

in the process of promoting agricultural modernization, how to adapt to local conditions, foster strengths and circumvent weaknesses, seize opportunities and meet challenges? Vigorously promote the development of efficient agriculture, quality agriculture, ecological agriculture, sightseeing agriculture, and actively guide the standardization of agricultural production, agricultural management scale, and strive to improve the degree of organization of agricultural production, will be the direction and inevitable trend of modern agricultural development in Jiangsu. Specific from the following aspects:

1. Ensure the effective supply of grain and other important agricultural products and the quality and safety of agricultural products. Stabilizing grain production and ensuring the quality and safety of agricultural products are the basis for the development of modern agriculture. "Balance between supply and demand and self-sufficiency in rations" is the bottom line of Jiangsu's grain production. We must strictly guard against it and never relax. At the same time, we should make great efforts to promote the standardization of agricultural production, processing and circulation, and strive to improve the quality and safety of agricultural products.

2. Comprehensively deepen the reform of the agricultural land transfer system. Comprehensively deepening the reform of the agricultural land transfer system is the institutional basis for promoting the development of modern agriculture. The top priority is to comprehensively promote the registration of rural land contractual management rights in a down-to-earth manner, implement farmers' land contractual management rights in accordance with the law, and establish and improve the rural land contract file management system; the second is to adhere to the principle of voluntary compensation and respect in accordance with the law On the basis of farmers' wishes, no targets, and no forced orders, accelerate the pilot and construction of the rural land contractual management rights transfer market, explore the establishment of a land transfer risk prevention mechanism and a transfer price market formation mechanism; the third is to actively explore the incentive mechanism for the paid withdrawal of land contractual management rights, so that farmers who are unwilling to continue farming can "withdraw" and "want to withdraw", and are interested in modern agriculture Professional farmers who operate "can farm" and "have fields", and strive to cultivate diversified agricultural moderate-scale operators.

3. Promote the construction of a modern agricultural industrial system. The focus of promoting the construction of modern agricultural industrial system is mainly in four aspects: first, vigorously develop the intensive processing of agricultural products, and strive to enhance the added value of agricultural products. Actively cultivate the "two main bodies" of agricultural leading enterprises and farmers' professional cooperatives, promote the construction of modern agricultural industrial parks, agricultural product processing concentrated areas and agricultural product market systems, and promote the agglomeration and development of agricultural product processing industries; the second is to vigorously develop agricultural product production area storage Facilities, logistics cold chain system, the implementation of agricultural product e-commerce and other marketing models, and actively develop a new modern agricultural circulation system; the third is to accelerate the development of emerging agricultural industries such as leisure and sightseeing agriculture, biological agriculture, and intelligent agriculture, and make Jiangsu the most important agricultural emerging industry cluster and growth pole in the country; the fourth is to highlight the "strong province of seed industry" and strengthen the innovation of agricultural provenances Breeding, building a modern seed industry system that combines production, education and research, and integrates breeding and promotion.

4. Build a new agricultural management system. To build a new agricultural management system, first of all, we should speed up the cultivation of new agricultural operators represented by large professional households, family farms, farmers' professional cooperatives and agricultural leading enterprises, reasonably guide industrial and commercial capital to invest in agriculture, clarify the functional orientation and advantages of different business entities, and vigorously develop cooperative management and industrial management; secondly, we should strive to promote the innovation of agricultural management mechanism, Including the development of agricultural moderate scale operation, innovate modern agricultural management methods, improve interest linkage mechanisms, benefit sharing, and risk sharing, not only protect the interests of farmers, but also fully mobilize the enthusiasm of other business entities; third, in accordance with the requirements of building modern agriculture, accelerate the construction of public service institutions Relying on, supplemented by agricultural operating service organizations, covering the whole process, comprehensive supporting, convenient and efficient agricultural socialized service system, providing all-round and full-process services for the development of modern agriculture.

5. Improve the level of modern agricultural science and technology. It is necessary to build a comprehensive agricultural science and technology system with agricultural science and technology innovation as the driving force, agricultural science and technology demonstration park as the carrier, agricultural technology extension system as the backbone, and agricultural science and technology talent cultivation as the support, so as to accelerate the transformation and upgrading of traditional agriculture to modern agriculture.

6. Strengthen the construction of agricultural infrastructure. Agricultural infrastructure is the fundamental guarantee to improve the comprehensive agricultural production capacity, which needs to be continuously updated, maintained and invested in new construction. During the 13th Five Year Plan period, we should focus on improving the comprehensive agricultural production capacity. The construction of agricultural infrastructure system should further improve and continue to increase investment in new construction in farmland water conservancy, agricultural mechanization, informatization, facility agriculture, agricultural resource development and land adjustment.

7. Strengthen the agricultural support and protection system. Following the objective reality of high investment, high cost and high risk in modern agriculture, we should increase agricultural investment, innovate the rural financial system, establish and improve the agricultural insurance system, deepen the reform of the rural land system, and improve the long-term mechanism to support and protect agricultural development.

8. Promote regional differential development according to local conditions. The regional differences in Jiangsu Province are obvious. According to the regional natural, economic and social characteristics, and the requirements of modern agricultural development, each region should further implement specialized division of labor, provide differentiated social services, and promote local development with distinctive support policies.
