In 2023, we ushered in a major reform of the management of rural areas. **Strict supervision and reform measures have been implemented in the three areas of rural ecological environment, land use and agricultural material management, aiming to solve a series of problems that have plagued rural development for a long time. This year has become a key node in the transformation of China's rural areas, witnessing a significant improvement in rural life and ecological environment.
With the rapid development of industrialization and urbanization, the rural environment is facing unprecedented challenges. Water bodies are polluted, air quality is declining, and biodiversity is threatened. In this context, ** took decisive measures and issued the "Notice on Carrying out Special Law Enforcement Actions to Severely Crack Down on the Destruction of Aquatic Wildlife Resources", which is an important policy aimed at protecting the rural ecological environment. By cracking down on illegal logging, illegal fishing and the indiscriminate use of pesticides, we have demonstrated our determination to protect natural resources and the environment. At the same time, the rural water environment governance forum held for the indiscriminate discharge of domestic sewage, the treatment of black and odorous water bodies and the standardized discharge of industrial wastewater and other issues were discussed in depth, and these measures worked together to effectively improve the quality of the rural water environment and laid a solid foundation for the continuous improvement of the rural ecological environment.
Rural land is the foundation of agricultural production, but the phenomenon of illegally occupying land and buying and selling land is widespread, seriously damaging rural land resources. In the face of this thorny issue, the first document issued in 2023 clearly states that strengthening the protection of land resources is an important task at present. ** A series of measures have been taken, including cracking down on illegal occupation of land and illegal land use, especially the strict investigation and punishment of illegal construction of houses and occupation of basic farmland. These measures have effectively curbed the phenomenon of illegal occupation of land and the sale and purchase of land, protected rural land resources, ensured that the basic resources of agricultural production were not infringed upon, and provided a strong guarantee for the sustainable development of rural areas.
In terms of agricultural material management and quality assurance of agricultural products, strict measures have also been taken. Due to the proliferation of counterfeit and shoddy agricultural products, the safety of agricultural products has become the focus of public attention. To this end, the "Law on the Quality and Safety of Agricultural Products" was amended, and the "2023 National Agricultural Materials Counterfeiting and Supervision Work Points" was issued, and the implementation of these policies has greatly strengthened the supervision of the agricultural materials market and improved the quality and safety level of agricultural products. **Through supervision and inspection, strengthen supervision, improve the traceability management system and other measures, effectively crack down on counterfeit and shoddy agricultural products, protect the interests of farmers and consumers' food safety, and provide a solid foundation for the healthy development of agriculture and the steady improvement of the rural economy.
Through this series of crackdowns and reform measures, the environment and quality of life in rural areas have been significantly improved. This not only solves the problems of environmental pollution, destruction of land resources and chaotic management of agricultural materials faced by rural areas for a long time, but also lays a solid foundation for the sustainable development of rural areas. These efforts demonstrate the determination and ability to protect the rural environment and promote rural economic development.
With the in-depth implementation of policies and measures, we have reason to believe that rural areas will usher in a more prosperous and harmonious future, and make important contributions to China's agricultural development and rural revitalization strategy.
