China has achieved good results to date in securing grain harvests despite the impact of multiple adverse factors, according to recent government data, with the country on course for a bumper harvest for the year as a whole.
Fu Linghui, spokesperson for the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), said in a recent press conference that the country's early rice output has increased this year with the help of various efforts, laying a good foundation for the annual grain harvest.
China's total grain output consists of three parts -- early rice, summer grain and autumn production. Figures released in July show the total summer grain output at 146.13 million tonnes this year, marking another robust summer grain harvest.
Autumn grain production, the lion's share of the annual grain output, is generally stable, which Fu said is conducive to a stable or higher level grain output throughout the year.
