The fresh list incorporates 241 varieties of agricultural products that are set to be specifically promoted
China’s Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has recently launched its 2023 list of high-quality agricultural products, ministry official Yang Haisheng said.
The fresh list incorporates 241 varieties of agricultural products that are set to be specifically promoted, according to Xinhua news agency.
These varieties roughly fall into four categories: grains, oil crops, vegetables, and major strategic resources.
This is the first time China has created a national catalogue of quality farm produce, with an aim to accelerate variety renewal and improve crop yields.
The list is expected to boost grain and oil production throughout the year amid the preparations for spring ploughing, thereby helping the country secure a bumper harvest, Yang added.
