Hey there! Have you heard the big news about China and its grains? The Chinese mainland is working hard to grow more grains than ever before! By 2025, they plan to harvest 709 million tonnes of grains. That’s even more than last year’s record of 706.5 million tonnes! π
So, what’s helping them reach this goal? Well, farmers are finding ways to grow more grains on the same amount of land. They’re also super excited about planting and producing grains, which is great news for everyone who enjoys foods like rice, bread, and noodles! πππ
And that’s not all! The Chinese mainland is also boosting its soybean production. In 2025, they expect to grow 21.17 million tonnes of soybeans, which is a 2.5% increase from the previous year. Soybeans are used to make things like tofu and soy milk. π₯
With all this extra grain and soybean production, China might not need to import as much from other countries. This means they can be more self-sufficient and rely on their own farmers. π
Over the next ten years, they’re aiming for even bigger improvements in farming. They want to produce more food and be better prepared for challenges like bad weather or pests. π¦οΈπ
Isn’t it amazing how countries can work towards feeding more people by improving farming? Maybe one day, you’ll be the one coming up with new ways to grow food! π±
