The goal of zero increase in fertilizer and pesticide consumption is achieved

The reporter learned from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs that since 2015, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has organized a zero increase in the use of fertilizers and pesticides.
After five years of implementation, by the end of 2020, China's fertilizer and pesticide reduction and efficiency increase have successfully achieved the expected target.
Significantly reduced, the utilization rate of chemical fertilizers and pesticides has been significantly improved, and the effect of promoting the high-quality development of the planting industry is obvious
.
According to scientific 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%, which is 5 percentage points higher than that in 2015; the utilization rate of pesticides is 40.
6%, which is 4 percentage points higher than that in 2015
.
According to the relevant person in charge of the Planting Management Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period, all localities will accelerate the integrated promotion of green and high-efficiency technology models for fertilizers and pesticides reduction and efficiency, and explore working mechanisms and service methods to reduce the use of fertilizers and pesticides and increase the utilization rate.
Lay a solid foundation
.
On the one hand, the input structure continued to be optimized
.
The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has carried out the action of replacing chemical fertilizers with organic fertilizers, and promoted the replacement of chemical pesticides with high-efficiency and low-risk pesticides.
In 2020, the area of ​​organic fertilizer application exceeded 550 million mu, an increase of about 50% over 2015, and high-efficiency and low-risk pesticides accounted for more than 90%
.
On the other hand, the promotion of scientific fertilization and medicine technology has been accelerated
.
Vigorously carry out soil testing and formula fertilization, formula fertilizers have accounted for more than 60% of the total application of the three major food crops; speed up the promotion of advanced fertilizer-saving technologies such as mechanical deep application and water and fertilizer integration, mechanical fertilization has exceeded 700 million mu times, and water and fertilizer integration 1.
4 100 million mu times
.
Vigorously promote green prevention and control and precise scientific drug use, timely and accurate forecast of disease and insect status, promote high-efficiency plant protection medicine equipment, promote standard control, symptomatic drug use, and timely and appropriate drug use
.
In 2020, the green prevention and control area will be nearly 1 billion mu, and the green prevention and control coverage rate of major crop diseases and insect pests is 41.
5%, an increase of 18.
5 percentage points from 2015
.
The number of specialized unified prevention and governance service organizations nationwide reached 93,000, and the coverage of the three major food crop diseases and insect pests reached 41.
9%, an increase of 8.
9 percentage points from 2015.

.
It is understood that the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs focuses on key areas and key crops.
It conducts fertilizer reduction and efficiency demonstrations in 300 counties every year, conducts organic fertilizer substitution experiments in 233 key counties, and builds unified prevention and control and green prevention and control in 600 counties.
Integrate demonstration bases, carry out pilot projects for the whole-process green prevention and control of fruit and vegetable tea in 150 counties, at the same time, carry out the establishment of "100 counties" for the unified control of diseases and insect pests, and the establishment of green prevention and control demonstration counties, integrated promotion of fertilizer and medicine saving technology models, and give full play to the leadership of demonstration counties The role of fertilizers and pesticides is to reduce the amount of fertilizer and increase the efficiency
.
Organize the "Millions of Farmers Scientific Medicine Training Action" to train more than 3 million large growers, technical backbones of plant protection professional service organizations, and farmer leaders to drive small farmers to improve their scientific fertilization and medicine levels
.
In the next step, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs will launch measures to increase the utilization rate of fertilizers and pesticides by another 3% by 2025, and promote the overall green transformation of agricultural production methods
.
First, strengthen the top-level design
.
Regarding 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 to clarify the objectives, tasks, key areas, technical paths, and main measures
.
Secondly, rely on technological support
.
Organize the development and innovation of green inputs, and promote the application of new fertilizers and high-efficiency and low-risk pesticides
.
Optimize the fertilization and drug use model, implement fixed fertilization, integrate and promote the green prevention and control model, and build a green planting system
.
Third, increase policy support
.
Actively seek support from relevant parties, establish and improve a stable investment guarantee mechanism, and continue to promote the reduction of fertilizers and pesticides
