The report forecasts a grain and tuber output of 709 million tonnes in 2025, driven by initiatives to boost yields per unit area and rising enthusiasm among farmers for grain cultivation. These efforts aim to strengthen domestic production capacity and support food security.
Soybean production is anticipated to increase by 2.5% compared to the previous year, reaching 21.17 million tonnes in 2025. The growth in domestic output is expected to reduce reliance on imports of key agricultural products, as consumption growth moderates.
Li Ming, a senior analyst at the Agricultural Forecasting Expert Council, stated: “The focus on improving yields and encouraging farmer participation is paving the way for sustainable growth in grain production.” The report highlights ongoing advancements in agricultural practices as a key factor in achieving these targets.
Looking ahead, the report predicts significant progress in agricultural productivity over the next decade. China is expected to enhance its overall grain production capacity and improve its resilience against major industry challenges. These developments are seen as critical to maintaining a robust and reliable agricultural sector.
The forecasted growth in 2025 reflects China’s commitment to strengthening its agricultural framework, ensuring sufficient domestic supply, and supporting sustainable development in the sector. The combination of increased production and improved efficiency is poised to contribute to long-term stability in food supplies.
