Sticking to such principles as “early arrangement”, “early preparation” and “early action”, Anren County has taken various measures to ensure the smooth progress of spring farming. The county has set up a grain production leading group headed by the main leaders of the county, established a grain production mechanism for county leaders to communicate with villagers and hold leaders at all levels accountable for grain production.

 

It plans to expand a grain production area of 682,000 mu (about 45,467 hectares) with a total output of 300,000 tons in 2022. Moreover, it now possesses a total concentrated seedling nursing area of over 180,000 mu (about 12,000 hectares), which acts as a powerful support for spring farming and grain production.

 

The county also boasts a high-quality seed reserve of 60,000 kilograms, which are provided for free to major farmers engaged in seedling nursing by the end of March. It makes full use of its leading enterprises to guide farmers and new agricultural entities in the use of their own early rice seeds, thus guaranteeing the seed demand for spring farming. In addition, it has stored 19,050 tons of chemical fertilizers, more than 10 tons of agricultural plastic film and 37.8 tons of pesticides, securing a stable supply of agricultural materials.

 

The county has established 13 agricultural expert groups to provide agricultural consultation and guidance for spring farming in its villages and promulgated various policies that benefit farmers from the county through online and offline ways.

 

At present, it has instructed more than 83,000 farmers in spring farming, distributed over 46,000 copies of publicity materials, and helped farmers solve all kinds of problems encountered in grain production.
