According to the Ministry of agriculture and rural areas on April 15, the general principles for the construction of high standard farmland (GB / t306 Shanghai Kehua Bio-Engineering Co.Ltd(002022) ) (hereinafter referred to as the general principles) has been approved and issued by the State Administration of market supervision (State Standardization Administration Committee) and will be officially implemented from October 1, 2022. This is the first revision after the release of the general principles of high standard farmland construction (GB / t306 Huangshan Novel Co.Ltd(002014) ) (hereinafter referred to as the original general principles) in 2014. It is also the first important national standard in the field of farmland construction led by the Ministry of agriculture and rural areas after the reform of Party and state institutions and the integration of farmland construction management functions into the Ministry of agriculture and rural areas in 2018.
The revision of the original general principles is an important measure to implement the decision-making and deployment of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council on strengthening the protection and construction of cultivated land. It is also an important basis for unifying high-standard farmland construction standards in the new era and realizing the scientific and standardized management of farmland construction projects. The newly revised general principles aims to comprehensively improve the quality of farmland, fully consider the regional characteristics, coordinate the construction of farmland projects and quality construction, adhere to the compilation principles of scientific layout, classified measures, goal orientation, good farmland and grain use, ecological concept and focus on quality, systematically improve the relevant contents and technical specifications of the original general principles, which will better guide the high-quality development of farmland construction and further standardize the behavior of high-standard farmland construction, It is of great significance to improve the quality of high standard farmland construction.
The revision of the general principles highlights the concept of green development, plans the construction of facilities and the improvement of land productivity, highlights the scientific applicability and improves the operability of standards. While revising the indicators of facility construction, the relevant indicators of land productivity improvement have been supplemented and improved. Specific project categories are divided in detail according to the construction content, and the construction standards are formulated in detail for each category, which not only ensures that local governments can have reference for all kinds of project construction, but also provides effective technical reference for local governments to carry out the construction of improving the quality of cultivated land.
The main contents of the general principles include “basic principles”, “construction area”, “farmland infrastructure construction project”, “farmland productivity improvement project” and “management requirements”, which are applicable to the new construction, transformation and upgrading activities of high-standard farmland.
The main feature of the general principles is to highlight the importance of adjusting measures to local conditions and setting construction standards in different regions. Fully consider the effective connection with the national high standard farmland construction plan (20212030), distinguish different construction objectives, priorities, capabilities and conditions, divide the country into seven regions: Northeast region, Huang Huai Hai region, middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, southeast region, southwest region, northwest region and Qinghai Tibet region, and formulate high standard farmland infrastructure construction standards and farmland fertility standard indicators according to local conditions. The general rules also stipulates the indicators of comprehensive grain production capacity of high-standard farmland in all provinces, and strengthens the grain production capacity orientation of high-standard farmland construction.
After the promulgation and implementation of the general principles, the State Administration of market supervision and Administration (National Standardization Management Committee) and the Ministry of agriculture and rural areas will carry out the publicity, implementation and training of national standards in various ways, so as to create favorable conditions for better guiding all localities to strengthen the construction and management of high-standard farmland and consolidate the foundation of national food security.
