Outline of the 12th Five Year Development Plan for the Chinese Grain Industry An outline for the 12th Five Year Development Plan for the Grain Industry of China has been drawn up. The plan will be key in developing the grain products industry in China by providing a structure for an improved oversight system, optimized grain reserve regulation, increased grain storage capacity, improved grain and oil standards and inspection systems, and enhanced scientific research and development. Logistics systems for transporting grain from north to south, bulk storage and transportation, and supply chains must be strengthened. The gross value of the grain and oil processing industries should be kept above 12% of the gross national product annually. The plan seeks to improve production operation efficiency, promote the construction of a legal system, and administrate the grain industry through a system of laws. |
