Developing ecological grass and animal husbandry is the meaning of green development

[ China Agricultural Machinery Industry News ] Protecting grassland resources and developing ecological grass and animal husbandry are the meaning of green development. China is a large grassland resource country with a total area of ​​nearly 6 billion mu of grassland, accounting for about 40% of the country's land area. The grassland is a large land ecosystem in China and an important production and living material for the herdsmen. Strengthening the construction of grassland protection, developing ecological grass and animal husbandry, is related to the overall situation of ecological civilization construction, and it is related to the sustainable economic and social development of pastoral areas.

The Party Central Committee and the State Council have attached great importance to the construction of grassland protection, and have successively launched a series of major policy projects such as returning grazing and returning grass, Beijing-Tianjin wind and sand source control, and grassland ecological protection subsidy. All localities conscientiously implemented the central government's decision-making and deployment, increased investment, strengthened support, and vigorously implemented, greatly promoted the process of grassland protection and construction, and promoted the transformation and development of grassland husbandry. According to preliminary monitoring statistics, in 2017, the national grassland comprehensive vegetation coverage reached 55.3%, an increase of 0.7 percentage points over the previous year; the total output of natural grassland fresh grass was 1.065 billion tons, an increase of 2.53%, and stabilized at more than 1 billion tons for seven consecutive years; The per capita net income of herders in 268 pastoral and semi-pastoral counties is expected to exceed 9000 yuan. The trend of continuous deterioration of the grassland ecological environment in the country has been significantly curbed, the development pattern of grassland animal husbandry has been further transformed, and the production and living of the herdsmen have been steadily improved.

The grassland has multiple functions such as ecological production. Due to many factors such as nature, geography and history, the grassland ecological protection in China still has a lot of debts. The grassland production infrastructure is weak, and the contradiction between human and animal husbandry still exists. The grassland biological disasters are frequently and frequently developed. During the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, the annual average area of ​​grassland rodents is more than 400 million mu, and the area of ​​grassland pests is about 200 million mu, which brings serious diseases to grassland production. Negative Effects. In recent years, the Ministry of Agriculture has actively promoted the concept of “green plant protection, public plant protection” for grassland plant protection, increased policy support, strengthened technical guidance, promoted green prevention and control technology for grassland biological disasters, and initially constructed biological control and ecological control. Green prevention and control technology system. With the strong support of the central government, the Ministry of Agriculture arranges nearly 200 million yuan of grassland rodent pests and pest control every year, and prevents 71 million mu of grassland rodents and 63 million mu of grassland rodents. The green prevention and control ratio of rodents and insect pests exceeds 80% and 50%. The technologies of bio-pharmaceuticals, hawk-controlled rats, fox-killing rodents, and ostrich pest control have been widely promoted and applied, effectively curbing the spread of grassland biological disasters. Protected the grassland ecological environment and promoted the herdsmen's disaster reduction and income increase.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the central government has raised the construction of ecological civilization to the strategic height of the overall layout of the "five in one" and made a series of decision-making arrangements. The pace of ecological civilization construction has accelerated markedly, the reform of the ecological civilization system has been deepened, and the concept of ecological civilization has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. . At the 37th meeting of the Central Deep Reform Group, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that it is a community of life to adhere to the landscape of Lintian Lake. In the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping once again stressed that it is necessary to coordinate the management of the grassland system in the landscape. This is a full affirmation of the ecological status of the grassland and a milestone for the promotion of grassland protection in the new era.

In the next step, we must conscientiously implement the central government's decision-making and deployment, and further increase the grassland ecological protection in accordance with the requirements of the 19th National Congress on "Building a Beautiful China" and "Implementing a Rural Revitalization Strategy", and promote the green prevention and control of grassland biological disasters. Grass production and management methods to promote the industrial revitalization of grassland pastoral areas and increase the income of herders. I hope that all the farmers, animal husbandry experts, cooperative organizations, enterprises, alliances, benefit farmers service stations and representatives of the news media will continue to care about and support our grassland protection and construction projects, actively participate in and promote the development of grassland green plant protection, and work together to make persistent efforts. Make new and greater contributions to the construction of grassland ecological civilization and the sustainable and healthy development of grassland husbandry.
