Mayor of Hechi: Doing a Good Job in Farmland Protection Inspection and Feedback. Rectification of Feedback Issues is a Campaign with No Retreat and No Space
For example, according to the Hechi Daily, on the afternoon of September 17th, Mayor Wang Jun presided over the 40th executive meeting of the fifth municipal government. The meeting called for a deep understanding that rectifying feedback issues from farmland protection inspections is a battle with no retreat or room for improvement, and we must firmly uphold the bottom line of farmland protection and food security. We must adhere to the principle of establishing laws and regulations, and resolutely complete the rectification of feedback issues from inspections. We must implement the strict requirements of accountability into the rectification work, and promote the effective implementation of problem rectification. We must resolutely prevent the simplification and one size fits all approach to problem rectification, and effectively safeguard the legitimate interests of the people. We need to strengthen both the root cause and the root cause, comprehensively draw lessons from each other, and establish and improve long-term regulatory mechanisms such as closed-loop management of inventory and rectification and cancellation of agricultural map spots.

Three new "greenhouse housing" issues have been added, with 20.75 acres of arable land. Two of them are due to the local government and relevant departments blindly promoting project construction and illegally handling facility agricultural land registration procedures for tourism and entertainment projects.

Mayor of Wenzhou: Pay close attention to cultivated land protection and food security, and the responsibility is heavier than Mount Tai
Zhang Zhenfeng pointed out that the responsibility for protecting cultivated land and ensuring food security is heavier than Mount Tai. All regions and departments should strengthen their problem orientation, make every effort to rectify, fill gaps, promote improvement, and strengthen the foundation, firmly hold the red line of arable land, and comprehensively consolidate the foundation of food security.
Zhang Zhenfeng emphasized the need to tackle and rectify feedback issues from inspectors. In accordance with the requirements of "one problem, one plan, closed-loop promotion, and one grasp to the end", targeted rectification plans should be formulated, and the problem number should be eliminated and cleared within a specified period of time. Simultaneously, "look back" and "draw analogies" should be carried out for problems that have already been rectified, with the same standards and quality. Strict accountability and accountability should be implemented to ensure that the rectification achieves practical results and can withstand inspections from all parties. We need to tackle the protection of arable land and permanent basic farmland, vigorously promote on-site rectification of arable land, verification and rectification of existing arable land, and adjustment and supplementary allocation of permanent basic farmland. We need to tackle the issue of occupying and supplementing arable land, as well as balancing imports and exports. We will fully implement the requirements of "occupying one to supplement one, occupying the advantages to supplement the advantages, and occupying paddy fields to supplement paddy fields", deepen the action of "clearing idle fields, transforming paddy fields, and creating garden fields", ensure that the quantity, quality, and use of arable land do not decrease, and actively strive for pilot projects for the comprehensive utilization of coastal high beach saline alkali land. We need to tackle the "Five Excellence Linkages" of food security, complete the annual task of grain sowing with high standards, implement policies to stabilize grain and benefit farmers, and accelerate the construction of grain storage facilities. To tackle the improvement of agricultural production efficiency, we will take the implementation of the "dual strong" action in agriculture as the starting point, accelerate the pace of agricultural technology, improve the level of agricultural mechanization, strengthen the characteristic planting and breeding of agriculture, and promote large-scale agricultural management. We need to tackle the comprehensive land consolidation of the entire region, seize the progress of ongoing projects, strengthen the planning and reserve of new projects, improve quality and expand scope, and create more modern basic units for common prosperity.
Zhang Zhenfeng emphasized that farmland protection and food security work is a systematic project. All regions and units should strengthen their work responsibilities, closely coordinate and link up, strictly assess and supervise, improve the promotion pattern of party and government joint responsibility, departmental coordination, upper and lower linkage, and public participation, and gather a strong joint force for joint management.

The development and reform, water conservancy and other departments of Pingyang County have approved the comprehensive improvement and bank protection projects of Mingzhu Lake and river channels, despite the clear proposal by the county's natural resources department that "permanent basic farmland is involved on both sides of Mingzhu Lake, and it is strictly prohibited to occupy permanent basic farmland", to promote illegal occupation of farmland and lake excavation.
