the development of agricultural belts for national food security. We will advance
the quality grain project, build more grain storage and logistic facilities, and ensure

good planning for sales of grain stockpiles. We will ensure that the minimum
purchase prices for rice and wheat are set at an appropriate level, keep the subsidy
policies for corn and soybean producers and for rice stable, and improve
implementation measures for the policy of guaranteeing base prices for cotton. We
will implement projects to upgrade the modern seed industry, carry out the action

plan to revitalize the seed industry, and make solid progress in building national
centers for soybean seeds.
We will intensify research on key agricultural technologies and support for the
development of agricultural science, technology, and equipment. We will continue

to improve the national emergency response system for grain. We will boost efforts
to balance supply and demand and strengthen market regulation for grain, cotton,
and sugar. A better response mechanism will be put in place to maintain stability
in the supply and prices of chemical fertilizers and other agricultural materials.
The mechanisms that regulate hog production will be improved to ensure stable

production and supply. We will tackle tough issues in developing seeds of quality
forage and environmentally-friendly grasses, and we will advance transformations
and upgrades in the grassland husbandry industry to promote its development
and growth. We will formulate guidelines on adopting an all-encompassing

approach to food and tapping food resources to ensure the effective supply of food
of all kinds, develop protected agriculture, and build a diversified food supply
system.

We will strengthen monitoring and assistance to prevent people from relapsing

into poverty, resolutely preventing any large-scale relapses. Focusing on
infrastructure improvement, we will launch a number of major projects to shore up
weaknesses and promote robust development in key counties receiving national
assistance for rural revitalization, in an effort to help areas that have just shaken off

poverty realize industrial revitalization. We will provide greater follow-up support
for people who have been relocated from inhospitable areas and incorporate large
resettlement areas into new urbanization initiatives. We will ensure no less than 30
million jobs for people who have just been lifted out of poverty.
We will continue to carry out work-relief policies with greater intensity, and

the scale of wages will be raised. We will deepen cooperation between the eastern
