It s a big deal! Agricultural experiments are fake, and the measured yield is even counted as straw!

In our country, food security has always been regarded as the lifeblood of the country, but in recent years, there has been a phenomenon of falsification of some agricultural experiments and production data, which is worrying. As an old proverb says: "Grain is the most important thing in the country, and the prosperity of agriculture is the peace and happiness of the country." "Food security is not only related to the national economy and people's livelihood, but also related to the future development of the whole country and nation. Against this background, how to effectively deal with and correct the problem of grain output fraud has become an urgent task that needs to be solved urgently.

In recent years, there has been serious fraud in agricultural experiments in many parts of China. For example, an agricultural company reportedly used various unfair tactics in the course of the experiment in pursuit of false high-yield data. There have been reports that these companies even transplant the same rice grown elsewhere into test plots before harvest and measure them to disguise actual yields. What is even more outrageous is that some companies even calculate impurities such as straw and leaves that should not be counted as output, so as to exaggerate the actual data. This behavior not only deceives policymakers and farmers, but also misleads the whole society in judging the actual situation of agricultural production. This phenomenon of "falsifying data and inflating yields" poses a serious threat to China's agricultural development and food security.

Expanding: Behind this kind of fraudulent behavior, it not only reflects that some enterprises are unscrupulous in pursuit of immediate economic interests, even at the expense of the rigor of scientific research and moral bottom line, but also reveals the loopholes in the management and supervision of agricultural scientific research in some places. This kind of illegal operation not only damages the credibility of agricultural scientific research, but also misleads the majority of farmers to have a correct understanding of agricultural technology. We must be vigilant against this and crack down on it so that we must not allow this undesirable phenomenon to continue to spread.

There are two main reasons for the falsification of agricultural experimental data: on the one hand, in order to pursue so-called "beautiful data", enterprises do not hesitate to use deceptive means to please the competent authorities and superior leaders, in exchange for scientific research funds and policy support. On the other hand, the poor management of the experimental institutions, the lack of supervision and law enforcement, and the lack of effective internal control mechanisms and external supervision mechanisms have led some people to take advantage of the situation and act recklessly. In this case, it is difficult to guarantee the authenticity of agricultural experiments and the reliability of data, which not only affects the authenticity of scientific research results, but also misleads farmers' production decisions and seriously undermines the order of agricultural production.

In addition, some experimental institutions and enterprises in the face of the pressure of output indicators, in order to achieve the surface of high yield, do not hesitate to take a variety of improper means, although in the short term may obtain certain political achievements, but in the long run will harm the ecological environment of farmland, damage the sustainable development of agriculture. In view of such a situation, we must not sit idly by, we must strengthen the construction of systems, increase the intensity of supervision, and resolutely curb the phenomenon of falsification of agricultural experiment data.

In view of the current problem of grain production fraud, we need to take comprehensive measures and comprehensively strengthen the formulation and improvement of agricultural scientific research management and related policies from various aspects. First of all, it is necessary to strengthen the supervision and control of agricultural experiments, establish and improve a scientific and fair yield evaluation system, and ensure the authenticity and reliability of experimental data. Secondly, it is necessary to strengthen the supervision of the whole process of the test process, establish a sound internal control mechanism, strengthen the review and review of the test data, and eliminate the space for data fraud. Third, it is necessary to encourage in-depth cooperation between scientific research institutions and farmers and the market, so that scientific research results can better serve actual production and promote the innovation and application of agricultural science and technology. Finally, it is necessary to strengthen popular science education for peasants, improve their scientific literacy and agricultural production skills, and let peasants become beneficiaries and participants in agricultural science and technology, so as to jointly promote the sustainable development of China's agriculture.

In addition, the first department should continue to increase the rewards and punishments for agricultural research institutions and enterprises, encourage honest and trustworthy, down-to-earth and hard-working subjects, punish fraud, and form a strict governance network. At the same time, the whole society should also establish a sound supervision system, let the public participate in supervision, and strengthen the review of the authenticity and credibility of output data through supervision and evaluation by third-party institutions, so as to ensure the accuracy and objectivity of the data.

The existence of the problem of grain production fraud has not only damaged the reputation of the entire field of agricultural scientific research, but also brought huge hidden dangers to China's food security. In the face of this problem, we should start from the source, strengthen the supervision and management of agricultural experiments, establish a scientific and fair yield assessment system, promote the integration of agricultural scientific research with actual production, and promote the sustainable development of China's agriculture. Only in this way can we ensure our country's food security and achieve sustainable prosperity in agriculture. Let us work together to create a good atmosphere of integrity, law-abiding and scientific development, and strive for a better future of China's agriculture.
