The gap between China and Russia in grain production has widened! Russia produces 14.2 billion tons, how much does China produce?
Food, whether it is governing the world or managing the world, is undoubtedly a pivotal existence"The soldiers and horses did not move, and the grain and grass went first"It shows the importance of food.
Although the Russian-Ukrainian war, which has been closely watched in the past, has been going on for two years and has no intention of stopping, it is on this premise that the scale of grain production in Russia has reached the second highest ever record - 14.2 billion tons.
Russia has the largest land area in the world, but the area of arable land is not much different from that of our country, basically around 1.9 billion hectares, assuming that the area of arable land is not much different, then what is the grain production in our country?
Food is the basis for people's survival, the level of income can even be related to the fate of a country, and the data about food is also one of the things that people are most concerned about, especially in the process of food statistics, cereals, potatoes and beans will be taken into account when calculating, but sometimes in order to facilitate the calculation, some crops will be calculated in proportion.
In contrast, the climate in western Russia is much better than in the east, and most of Russia's arable land is also concentrated in the central and western regions, especially crops such as wheat and corn, which are ideal for growing in Russia.
According to statistics, the scale of grain production in Russia has exceeded 1 for five years in a rowAt 3.5 billion tonnes, the impressive result directly set a new record for Russia, and in the years that followed, Russia's cereal production continued to increase.
The Russian Deputy Prime Minister also ** that year the Russian grain production in 2023 will continue to exceed 1400 million tons.
But this speculation was denied by most netizens, because Russia is still at war and may not have so much energy to develop agriculture, but what they didn't expect was that when Russia released its grain production data, it really shocked everyone, and instead of reducing production, it reached the second highest level in history.
Of course, this has an important relationship with the hard work of the Russian people and the growth of scientific and technological strength.
However, it is worth noting that China and Russia are closely interdependent, and the area of arable land is almost the same, but judging from the grain production statistics of the two countries, the gap between the two is constantly widening, what is going on? What is the production of cereals in our country?
Russia has always been one of the world's largest exporters of wheat, and its cereal production is among the best in the world, but there is still a certain gap compared with China. Because according to statistics, in 2023, China's grain production will reach 69.5 billion tons, close to 5 times that of Russia, so who has more and who has less will be judged.
In fact, in terms of the area of arable land, our country is smaller than Russia, about 178.5 billion hectares. You must know that China's grain production on such a scale not only solves the problem of China's military food and civilian food in such a simple way, but also directly affects the world's food, you know, China has been known as a large agricultural country for 5,000 years, so China's agriculture has always occupied the core position in the world.
It is reported that 69.5 billion tonnes of grain are produced more than 20% of the world's total food production, which is exported abroad while meeting the needs of our population.
Why is there such a huge gap in the amount of arable land in our country about the same as in Russia, but in grain production?
First of all, the first point - the climatic factor. It is undeniable that compared with China, Russia is located in a high latitude, the climate is colder, and the growth of plants is more restricted, in addition, China's investment in agricultural science and technology and mechanization is also better than Russia.
Moreover, the reason why China's grain production can achieve such impressive results in the world is not unrelated to the state's support policies, and China's investment in scientific research in agricultural science and technology innovation is also incomparable to the mechanization of most other countries, and a high degree of intelligence is only one aspect, cultivating excellent varieties and agricultural planting technology innovation is the key to China's agriculture to stand out, of course, this is absolutely inseparable from the great contribution of scholar Yuan Longping to China's agriculture.
Finally, the reason why China's food level can be steadily improved is naturally inseparable from the attention and investment of the state, and it is also inseparable from ecological governance. Fundamentally solve the current problems in agriculture, break down scientific and technological barriers, and plant crops that are more resistant to diseases and pests and drought.
Finally, of course, we have also made significant progress in agriculture, such as crops such as wheat, corn, and of course, rice, which we are not proud of.
At present, China is one of the world's major food countries, attracting much attention in the world, while being self-sufficient, it can also be exported abroad to help other countries solve food problems, especially in world food security, China must have made immeasurable contributions. Of course, China's food development is far from that far, but I believe that with the multiple encouragement of science and technology and political support, China's food development will become stronger and stronger.
