Document No. 1 in 2024 will be issued to rectify the "non-grain" of cultivated land, and the land will be reclaimed?
Foreword: Land is a necessary condition for food production, and food security is a matter of importance, so the country's attention to land is the first, and this year's No. 1 document is no exception"Non-food"Land use consolidation has been strengthened again.
* Document No. 1 is the most important policy document of the country every year, is the most important work of the country in the new year, the first document in 2024 has been released, without exception this year's No. 1 document or the three rural issues, rural revitalization issues, in this year's No. 1 document, the state will strictly implement the cultivated land protection system.
We know that China has 1.8 billion acres of cultivated land protection red line, and this is the cornerstone of national food security, is an important weight to achieve food self-sufficiency is not controlled by others, if once advanced, then the emergence of the food crisis, will inevitably affect the world
However, we must pay attention to the question of whether food security can be effectively achieved by guaranteeing the amount of arable land.
We can only say that the red line of 1.8 billion mu of cultivated land is a factor, or the main factor, but not all, and the factors affecting food security also include the human factor, and if everyone does not grow grain, food security cannot be talked about. At present, the main body of grain production in China is still farmers, in addition to the elderly peasant group, most of whom are over the age of 50.
The post-80s do not want to farm, the post-90s do not want to farm, the post-00s will not farm, and the population of grain is shrinking year by year, not only because the degree of mechanization is getting higher and higher, but also because the output of grain continues to decline, farmers do not make money or even lose money, and the consequence is that no one farms the land, resulting in land abandonment, and misappropriation for other purposes.
Document No. 1 of 2024 emphasizes that the cultivated land protection system will be strictly implemented, and the crime of illegal occupation of agricultural land and illegal reclamation of cultivated land will be severely cracked down. Ongoing remediation"Large sheds"。Properly rectify and replant illegally occupied farmland, clarify the scope of farmland consolidation, and reasonably arrange the restoration sequence. Promote the use of abandoned land in accordance with local conditions, and support rural collective economic organizations in planting and making good use of actual uncultivated land.
In other words, in"Fade"At the same time, the land is also using abandoned arable land, so what is it"Fade"Land? What's in"Fade"Land? What about the residents on the abandoned farmland? Will they be reclaimed?
To put it simply,"Non-food"Land is cultivated land that has not been planted with basic grain, such as planting trees, growing vegetables, digging ponds and raising fish, and even non-agricultural construction of factories and houses, which constitutes illegal occupation of land, and such non-agricultural and non-grain cultivated land will be strictly regulated.
For example, some villagers reported that fruit trees more than 10 years old were cut down overnight, and all the arable land used to plant trees was cut down, and villagers were ordered to restore arable land, and even fined in serious cases.
In 2024, under the guidance of the core No. 1 document, a new round of cultivated land protection will be more stringent, not only for non-food land, but also for cultivated land that has been abandoned or is to be fully abandoned. According to Article 18 of the Regulations on the Protection of Cultivated Land, it is forbidden for any unit or individual to abandon farmland or abandon cultivated land.
If the contractor or individual abandons farmland for two consecutive years, the original contractor must terminate the contract and take back the contracted basic farmland.
It can be seen that even if the peasants have a legal contract, if the contracted land is idle for two years, the contract right will be withdrawn, and the contract can no longer be issued in the future contract, which is absolutely incompatible with the subsidy that the villagers have been using to obtain farmland subsidies. It is important to know that after the abolition of the peasants' agricultural tax, the annual subsidy per mu of land can reach 180 yuan, and at most several hundred yuan, so as to increase the peasants' enthusiasm for planting.
It can be said that the person who contracts the land and cultivates the land benefits, and if the land is not cultivated and does not contribute to food security, the contract is naturally terminated and the subsidy is naturally no longer paid.
From today's point of view, the grain is not only too low, but also too much, so it is not actually profitable for farmers to grow crops, so it is not important to reclaim arable land for farmers. But you know, even if the arable land is cultivated, who should be authorized to plant it?
Therefore, if we really care about food security, we must guarantee the income of farmers, and the fundamental condition of food security is to have money to make and profits to earn!
