on the field of hope.
On the last day of March, the State Council’s institutional reform promotion meeting was formally held. At the meeting, further implementation of institutional reforms was made.
According to the timetable, the newly formed department will complete the listing in mid-April. Among the newly formed departments, there is a department. Each of its actions is related to 600 million people.
A new round of State Council reform plan proposed that the establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development will no longer retain the Ministry of Agriculture. The responsibility of the Ministry of Agriculture and the integration of the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Land and Resources, and the Ministry of Water Resources' management responsibilities for agricultural investment projects 3. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs was established as one of the departments of the State Council.
Integrate Management to Improve the Efficiency of 'San Nong' Construction
According to the reform plan, the agricultural investment projects that originally belonged to the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Land and Resources, and the Ministry of Water Resources were all integrated into the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Agriculture. The analysis concluded that the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development had expanded its authority over the former Ministry of Agriculture. The management efficiency is higher, changing the situation of 'Kowloon's flood control'.
According to the previous system, various ministries and commissions are involved in rural work. For example, the Ministry of Finance has a Department of Agriculture, the National Office for Comprehensive Agricultural Development, the National Development and Reform Commission has a Department of Agriculture and Economics, the Ministry of Land and Resources is responsible for rural land planning and management, and the multi-headed management makes agricultural funds and The management efficiency of land and other elemental resources is low.
Professor Kong Xiangzhi of the School of Agriculture and Rural Development at Renmin University of China stated that the scope of functions of the Ministry of Agriculture of the People's Republic of China is very narrow compared to the developed countries. The functions of the newly established Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Agriculture have been expanded. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs was established to coordinate the agricultural and rural work. Make agricultural industry chain management more uniform.
After this adjustment, the management efficiency of agricultural finance and rural land will be improved.
First of all, to increase the efficiency of the use of agricultural funds. According to the statistics of Dang Guoying, a researcher at the Institute of Rural Development of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, there are more than 20 sub-ministerial and above units involved in the expenditure of agricultural, rural, and rural areas. However, the funds belonging to the former Ministry of Agriculture are not balanced. Less, this is inconsistent with the positioning of the Ministry of Agriculture, which coordinates the macroeconomic management of the rural economy. The establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Industry is conducive to pooling the functions of several agricultural-related funds and making full use of the funds for 'three rural issues'.
In addition, experts pointed out that the newly established Ministry of Agriculture and Rural can carry out land consolidation planning and rural construction land planning according to production requirements, and is no longer subject to the “Ministry of Land and Resources” to realize the integrated management and full use of land resources.
Highlights 'Priority Development' and 'Agriculture, Country and Farmer' status has improved again
Since its establishment in 1949, this time has been the fifth integration of the Ministry of Agriculture. The Ministry of Agriculture of the same age as the New China was revoked in June 1970 and merged with the Ministry of Forestry and the Ministry of Fisheries to establish the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. February 1979 The Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry was revoked and the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Forestry were set up. Three years later, in May 1982, the Ministry of Agriculture merged with the Ministry of Land Reclamation and the State Fisheries Bureau to establish the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries. Subsequently, the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Husbandry and Fisheries was repealed in April 1988. The Ministry of Agriculture has so far.
Hou Yuxi Cartography
A series of changes can be seen in the country's key changes in the 'three rural' construction.
At present, the problem of inadequate development imbalance in China is most prominent in rural areas. To achieve China’s modernization, we must accelerate the shortcomings of agriculture and rural areas. The establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Industry has achieved great integration and shows that the high-level desire to accelerate the 'three rural issues' ' The pace of construction.
The report of the Nineteenth Congress proposed that the issue of solving the 'three rural issues' must be taken as the top priority of the work of the whole party, and the priority should be given to the development of agriculture and rural areas. Zhang Xiaoshan, vice president of the China Agricultural Economics Society and member of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, believes that the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs will be established. It embodies the general direction of agricultural and rural priority development. The Ministry of Agriculture has become the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs. The scope and scope of management have been expanded, which is conducive to comprehensive rural development and rural rejuvenation.
At present, there are still many debts owed to China's rural infrastructure construction, comprehensive agricultural development, and comprehensive management of rural land. According to the third agricultural census data, by the end of 2016, only 47.7% of the rural households used purified tap water. 36.2 % of farmers use flush toilets, and nearly 40% of village roads have no street lights.
At the Central Rural Work Conference, Chinese officials put forward rigid targets. By 2035, the modernization of agriculture and rural areas will basically be realized. To achieve these goals, it is necessary to increase investment in agriculture and rural areas and accelerate infrastructure construction. Experts predict that after the establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Areas, Agricultural and rural related inputs will continue to increase, while the use of funds is more efficient.
Increase 'Rural' aims at rural rejuvenation
The Nineteenth National Congress of the People's Republic of China proposed the strategy for the promotion of rural areas for the first time. Later, the Central Rural Work Conference, the Central No. 1 Document further emphasized and made specific plans for the rural revitalization strategy. The rural revitalization further emphasized comprehensive revitalization, not only including agriculture but also emphasizing the living environment. Medical education, rural governance, etc. are closely related to 'people'.
The transformation of the Ministry of Agriculture into the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development added the word “rural”, which also reflected the central government's consideration of promoting rural rejuvenation strategies. In the future, more efforts should be made in rural construction.
State Councilor Wang Yong also stated in his statement on the State Council’s institutional reform plan that the establishment of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development is to maintain the priority for the development of agriculture and rural areas, make overall plans for the implementation of the strategy of rural revitalization, promote overall agricultural upgrading, make overall progress in rural areas, develop farmers in an all-round way, and speed up the realization of Agricultural and rural modernization.
On March 19, 2018, at the 7th plenary session of the first meeting of the 13th National People's Congress, Han Changfu was appointed Minister of Agriculture and Rural Areas. Han Changfu, former Minister of Agriculture, was born in October 1954. He served as the Central Youth Ministry of the Communist Youth League. Minister, deputy director of the Office of the Central Financial Leadership Group, executive deputy minister of the Ministry of Agriculture, deputy secretary of the Party Group and deputy director of the State Council Research Office. Before the former Minister of Agriculture, he served as governor of Jilin Province.
Dang Guoying said that currently many problems in agriculture and rural areas need to be solved through reforms that need to make market mechanisms work. For example, reforming the land planning and management system, clarifying land property rights, permitting the transfer of land contracting rights in areas with a high degree of urbanization, and mobilizing agriculture The enthusiasm for investment. With the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development responsible for overall planning, such reforms are easier to initiate and promote.
