    On December 18, the reporter learned from the press briefing on the utilization rate of fertilizers and pesticides of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs.
    In 2019, the utilization rate of fertilizers and pesticides of my country’s three major food crops were 39.
    2% and 39.
    8%, which is very close to "striving to reach 40%" set goal.
    Compared with 2017, this data has increased by 1.
    4 and 1 percentage point respectively; compared with 2015, it has increased by 4 and 3.
    2 percentage points respectively.
    The state will continue to promote the reduction of fertilizers and pesticides and increase efficiency through measures such as promoting integrated innovation, promoting new products, new machinery, and promoting mechanism innovation.
    Pan Wenbo, director of the Department of Planting Management of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said that the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs formulated the "Standards for Estimating the Utilization Rate of Fertilizers for Three Major Food Crops" and "Implementation Plan for Pesticide Utilization Testing and Evaluation" in 2019, and arranged more than 1,000 regions and crops A field experiment, 12,000 sets of field tests, random surveys of 55,000 households and more than 2,200 specialized service organizations, the results of this calculation were obtained through collation, scientific calculation, and consultation and evaluation.
    According to expert estimates, the fertilizer utilization rate increased by 1.
    4%, which is equivalent to reducing the consumption of urea by 700,000 tons (in-kind amount) and reducing production investment by about 1.
    4 billion yuan.
    A 1.
    0% increase in pesticide utilization is equivalent to a reduction of nearly 30,000 tons of pesticides (in kind) and a reduction in production investment of about 1.
    7 billion yuan.
    At the same time, the area of ​​application of new fertilizers such as slow-release fertilizers and water-soluble fertilizers reached 245 million mu times, and the area of ​​organic fertilizer applications exceeded 5.
    500 million mu times; the annual update rate of green pest control products reaches 30%, the use of pesticide additives exceeds 5,000 tons, and the high-efficiency plant protection machinery exceeds 500,000 sets.
    Pan Wenbo said that in order to continue to promote the reduction of fertilizers and pesticides, the state will take a series of measures.
    In terms of integrated innovation, focusing on the main grain production areas, horticultural crop production areas, and facility vegetable production areas, the integrated promotion of deep fertilization, seed fertilizer simultaneous sowing, mechanical deep application, appropriate fertilization, and water and fertilizer integration technologies will be integrated and promoted.
    ; Apply agricultural control, biological control and other green prevention and control technologies to promote the integration of unified prevention and control and green prevention and control.
    In terms of research and development of new products and equipment, focus on the development of high-efficiency slow-release fertilizers, high-efficiency, low-toxicity and low-residue pesticides, biological fertilizers, biological pesticides and other emerging products, actively promote advanced fertilizer application machinery, and accelerate the replacement of backward machinery.
    In addition, the state will also step up efforts to promote mechanism innovation, including accelerating the cultivation of a number of technical and powerful social service organizations, carrying out unified deployment, unified implementation, and unified prevention and governance services; guiding large agricultural companies to carry out agrochemical services and co-construction Demonstration base for fertilizer and pesticide reduction and efficiency enhancement; explore service innovations such as rural cooperative finance, agricultural leasing finance, and agricultural credit insurance to facilitate the implementation of the zero-growth campaign for the use of fertilizers and pesticides.
