Summary: It includes ecological agriculture, efficient agriculture, and post-harvest agriculture. Any agricultural production that contributes to environmental protection and food safety and hygiene can be considered green agriculture. It is a general term for the production and processing of green food, pollution-free agricultural products, and organic food. The development of green agriculture should gradually adopt advanced agricultural technologies to form a modern agricultural system. The key to strategic transfer is scale and technology, the direction is to develop domestic and foreign markets, and the goal is to achieve sustainable agricultural development and promote agricultural modernization, ensuring the healthy development of the national economy and meeting the needs of urban and rural residents in the new century.

It is a general term for the production and processing of green food, pollution-free agricultural products, and organic food. The development of green agriculture should gradually adopt advanced agricultural technologies to form a modern agricultural system. The key to strategic transfer is scale and technology, the direction is to develop large domestic and foreign markets, and the goal is to achieve sustainable agricultural development and promote agricultural modernization, ensuring the healthy development of the national economy and meeting the needs of urban and rural residents in the new century.

Autumn and winter planting is a crucial battle for next year's grain and oil production, accounting for 1/4 of the annual crop area. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs is making every effort to ensure autumn and winter planting production. Firstly, it focuses on stabilizing the sown area. Implementing policies such as the minimum purchase price for wheat, rewards for major grain (oil) producing counties, and pilot programs for the crop rotation and fallow system, guiding farmers to expand the planting of summer grain and oil crops, and encouraging the development of winter fallow fields for rapeseed planting. Secondly, it focuses on optimizing the planting structure. For wheat, vigorously developing high-quality strong gluten and weak gluten varieties; for winter rapeseed, focusing on developing low-erucic acid, low-glucosinolate "double-low" varieties and high-yield, high-oil, high-oleic acid "three-high" new varieties. Thirdly, it focuses on improving planting quality. Guiding farmers to implement key technical measures such as precision sowing and post-sowing compaction to improve planting quality and achieve full seedling emergence with one sowing. Fourthly, transforming the production methods of autumn and winter planting. Continuing to carry out the zero-growth action for the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, promoting the reduction and efficiency increase of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and improving the efficiency of input use. At the same time, vigorously developing professional and socialized services to promote autumn and winter planting production in an intensive and efficient manner.
