The establishment of a green planting system drives the reduction of fertilizers and pesticides to increase efficiency

The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs revealed on the 18th that as of the end of 2020, China's fertilizer and pesticide reduction and efficiency increase have successfully achieved the expected goal, the use of fertilizers and pesticides has been significantly reduced, and the utilization rate of fertilizers and pesticides has increased significantly
.
In the future, we will increase policy support, continue to promote the reduction of fertilizers and pesticides, and accelerate the establishment of a green planting system
.
According to reports, since 2015, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has organized a zero increase in the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides.
According to calculations, the utilization rate of chemical fertilizers for the three major food crops of rice, wheat and corn in China in 2020 is 40.
2%, an increase of 5 percentage points from 2015; The utilization rate was 40.
6%, an increase of 4 percentage points over 2015
.
At present, there are 93,000 specialized unified prevention and governance service organizations nationwide.
The specialized services have reduced personal fertilization and spraying drips and improved the efficiency of fertilization and medicine
.
Demonstration of chemical fertilizer reduction and efficiency enhancement is carried out in 300 counties every year, organic fertilizer is replaced by chemical fertilizer pilots in 233 key counties, and demonstration bases for integrated prevention and governance and green prevention and control are built in 600 counties, and fertilizer-saving and medicine-saving technology models are integrated and promoted.
Drive the reduction of fertilizers and pesticides to increase efficiency
.
It is understood that the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs trains more than 3 million large growers, technical backbones of plant protection professional service organizations, and farmer leaders every year, and organizes experts to formulate fertilizer and pesticide reduction technical plans by region and crop, and formulate scientific fertilization technical guidance.
Issue nitrogen fertilizer application quotas for rice, wheat, corn, and rape, and guide farmers and new business entities to master the key technologies for reducing fertilizers and pesticides, and avoid excessive and blind application of fertilizers and drugs
.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs stated that in the future, it will strengthen the top-level design, take the reduction of fertilizers and pesticides as an important part of promoting the green development of agriculture and continuously improving the environmental quality, organize the formulation of implementation plans, and clarify the objectives, tasks, key areas, technical paths, and main measures
.
At the same time, increase policy support, organize research and development and innovation of green inputs, promote the application of new fertilizers and high-efficiency low-risk pesticides, optimize fertilization and drug use models, integrate and promote green prevention and control models, and build a green planting system
.
It is planned that by 2025, the utilization rate of chemical fertilizers and pesticides will be increased by another 3% to promote the overall green transformation of agricultural production methods
