The country will also adopt its strictest system thus far to protect farm land. Efforts will be made to increase grain production to meet domestic demand.
During the next five years, China will promote a human-centered urbanization process, and reform the rural household registration system. Policies will be in place to ensure farmers enjoy the same social benefits as urban residents.
