The Chinese government will deal with any confirmed food safety cases in a responsible manner and in accordance with laws, a parliament spokesman said in Beijing on T "There are indeed very few companies in China which neglect our country‘s laws, regulations and standards, dodge quarantine and tests, and have their unqualified products smuggled into foreign markets via illegal channels," said Jiang Enzhu, spokesman for the First Session of the 11th National People‘s Congress (NPC), at a press Our government will intensify its efforts to crack down on such illegal activities and prevent any under-quality food from being 议会发言人周四在北京宣布:中国政府将以负责任的态度依法处理证实了的食品安全问题。 第11届全国人民代表大会代表发言人姜恩柱在一次新闻发布会上说。“在中国确实有一些公司,忽视我们国家的法律、法规、标准和测试检疫,他们将不合格产品过非法渠道走私到国外市场通,”我们的政府将会加强努力打击非法活动,防止不合格食物出口。
As we all known,food safety problems are more and more popular in our country,because more cases about food safety problem have Firstly,As the old saying goes,the food is what matters to the Food plays an important role in people's So food safety influences people's health and Secondly,some producers only think about earning money without thinking about ensuring food hey produce unqualified Thirdly,some food supervisory departpents don't perform their duty This behavior make some producer ignore the safety of If we want to solve problems that is illustrated former,we must call on the supervisory department to manage the food And the producers must paly their Lastly,we hope that there is law that punish illegal In recent years, China’s food industry occurs security issus frequently, which makes people worried and lose Food safety, related to the people’s health, safety and healthy development of economy, is the major issue of national stability and social Since the Sanlu Incident occurred in 2008, the entire society increasingly concerned about food safety It was in this context that the food safety issue was referred to an unprecedented 近几年,中国食品工业经常发生安全问题,这使得人们很担忧并失去了信心。食品安全与人们的健康,安全以及经济的健康发展息息相关,是国家稳定和社会发展的主要问题。自2008年三鹿事件发生以来,全社会对食品安全问题的关注越来越高。正是在这种情况下,食品安全问题被提到了一个空前的水平。There are the following main issues in food security: using poor quality raw materials in the food manufacturing process, adding toxic substances, excessive use of food additives, abusing of chemical additives and so There are many reasons to cause this problem, and regulators, producers and even consumers share The entire society should try effort to avoid food safety 食品安全主要存在以下问题:在生产食品过程使用劣质的原材料,添加有毒物质,过量使用防腐剂,滥用化学添加剂等等。引起这一问题的原因有很多,监管者,生产者甚至是消费者都有责任。全社会应该尽力避免食品安全问题。
From this incident,we can see that there are still more things to be Firstly,the government needs everything possible to ensure the quality of products,particularly the safety of food as this concerns everyone's Secondly,as for the producers,it is very important for them to be morally They should never try to pursue profit or economic growth at the expense of health and life of Thirdly,we consumers must attach importance to the things we eat and develop an awareness of how to protect our legal rights if Only in this way will we be able to build a more secure and harmonious
the problem of food securityNowadays,there is an increasing number of problem in the food security aspect,such as the swill-cooked dirty oil and the milk Because of last year's Sanlun scandal, food safety become a hot topic and how can we prevent another milk scandal?In my opinion,it is the lack of credit that lead to the serious problem of food We should strengthen the propaganda and education so that we can enhance people's safety consciousness and change their moral Besides,we should strengthen the legal system and the supervision of food security Only in this way can we live a healthier and happier

agricultural sectorAgricultural development strategy, policies and food securityChina's food economy prospectsIssues and challengesConcluding RemarksReferences--------------------------------------------------------------------------------IntroductionChina's effort to produce enough to feed its growing population has long been It feeds over one-fifth of the world's population with only one-fifteenth of the world's arable In recent history, China has either exported food or imported relatively China was a net exporter of food, even of grain, in the Although China became a net importer of grain in the 1960s, the share of net imports to total domestic consumption was Net import shares reached approximately three percent in the early reform period (1978-84), then declined to approximately one percent in the following period (1985-90) China has since become a net grain exporter, except in 1995 when it had a record level grain imports of nearly 20 million Net exports between 1992 and 1994 were over 5 million tons While China's grain imports may grow slightly in the coming decades, the nation has developed a strong position as a net exporter of food (both grain and non grain) in value terms by exporting high value-added foodstuff including livestock products and other processed foods during the reform Net food exports grew to 3 billion US dollars in 1985 and peaked at 3 billion dollars in 1993, from a state of balanced trade (in value terms) in 1980 (China Customs Statistics)China's future food security, however, is a subject of growing First, although China's food production has grown over the last several decades, year-to-year fluctuations of food supply and prices are Market stabilization and food price inflation have been among the major targets of government policy since the late The Chinese government considers maintaining a comparatively high level of food self-sufficiency, avoiding supply shocks, and stabilizing consumer prices, a matter of national security and stability:Only when the Chinese people are free from food availability and stability of food supply worries can they concentrate on and support the current reform, thus ensuring a sustained, rapid and healthy development of the economy (The State Council, 1996)To this end, the government recently adopted measures to stabilize domestic food supply and stabilize the market - these measures include administrative and economic intervention in food distribution and marketing systems, national and local food reserve schemes, price regulations, international trade, factor markets, and rural infrastructure Secondly, food security and access to food are mainly poverty Although national economic growth is strong, it is uneven across Farmer's incomes in the central and eastern regions of China continue to grow more rapidly than those in the west and Income inequality among regions, between rural and urban areas, and within regions continues to grow (MOA, 1997) In the early 1980s, tremendous progress was made in addressing China's poverty problem, mainly due to the government's rural reform However, this progress has slowed down over the past ten Finally, China's food supply availability could be a major food security issue in the coming decades if policies were not formulated in the right Worldwide, food production growth rates have outpaced population growth in recent decades, implying increased food availability per Furthermore, the decline of real food and feed grain prices internationally over the same period implies that supply increases have exceeded increased However, the situation differs from country to China faces the great challenge of feeding its growing population with declining land, water, and other food production resources, and increasing opportunity cost of labor and domestic food production Food supply availability in China is important not only because it concerns a large proportion of the world's population and consumption, but also because rapid industrialization has led to competition for resources between agricultural and non-agricultural sectors, strong income growth, rapid urbanization, and population All of these stimulate demand for agricultural Government officials and scholars have focused food economy and food security concerns on the grain economy because grain (both food and feedgrain) is a major component of China's food Historically, grain fundamentalism, the provision of adequate cereal grain supplies at low stable prices to urban residents, has been an overriding government Recurring food shortages, particularly the famine of the early 1960s, increased the official desire for assured and secure grain This concern, coupled with rapidly increasing urbanization, domestic infrastructure and transport constraints, domestic grain price spikes in 1994/1995, Brown's 1995 prediction that China will become an importer of massive amounts of grain in the next few decades, the weaknesses of the fiscal system in the provision of public goods (particular agricultural research and extension), has attracted worldwide attention in the past 4 A number of recent studies conducted by both domestic and international organizations have led to a consensus that while the increases in China's grain imports will be marginal and the nation will remain at a high level of food self-sufficiency in the coming decades, China's long-term food security is an issue of both national and international The sheer size of China's economy and its rapid growth will make China a crucial influence in the future development of world markets for inputs and outputs of food and agricultural products, agribusiness, and Along with this growth is its gradual progress toward market-orientation and global integration, urbanization, the shift of comparative advantage from agriculture to other sectors, and dietary Small adjustments to China's food supply and demand, agricultural input demand shifts, and the Chinese government's selection of food security policy will each have large effects on world agricultural This paper evaluates China's food security situation, reviews the performance of the food and agricultural sector, considers the role of food policies, particularly the most recent price and marketing reform policies, in improving the food situation, and identifies key issues related to food security which require further The next section reviews previous achievements and sources of growth in agricultural production and food The third section analyzes current government policies and programmes and their impacts on agricultural production and food The fourth section predicts the shape of China's food economy over the next three decades; while the fifth section discusses the major challenges and constraints to agricultural production and food Concrete measures and options towards sustainable agricultural growth

of the world's arable land is widely China, with more than 23 billion people in 1997, is the world's most populous Its experience demonstrates the importance of technological development, institutional change, improved incentives, and rural development among other policies in improving food security with limited natural Availability of foodChina's per capita food availability and consumption have increased over the last several Average per capita food availability has grown from less than 1700 kcal in 1960 to 2570 kcal per day in 1995 (Table 1)[19] Increased domestic production is almost solely responsible for increased food Protein intake and fat consumption per capita per day increased over the same period, from 42 grams to 70 grams, and 17 grams to 45 grams, Both figures exceed average nutrient availability in countries with comparable per capita GNP Nutritional composition changes of Chinese diets are consistent with growing income (Table 1) Nutrient sources are a powerful indicator of the population's economic In low income countries, the average diet includes a high percentage of nutrients from crops, while a typical developed country diet includes a relatively high percentage of nutrients from animal In China, traditional diets were typically based on cereals, vegetables, and small quantities of meat and Consumption of relatively expensive non-cereal food items, particularly livestock products and fish, have increased with rapid increases in per capita income, urbanization, and market expansion (Huang and Bouis, 1996)Aggregate household food securityAggregate household food security has improved According to the FAO's WFS (1996), Chinese household food security, as measured by the aggregate household food security index (AHFSI) and the level of food inadequacy, follow overall national The AHFSI increased from a low level of 70 percent in 1969-71 to a relatively high level of nearly 80 percent in 1990-92, while food inadequacy declined from slightly over 14 percent to approximately 3 percent in the same Table Nutrient availabilityYearEnergy(kcal)Protein(grams)Fat(grams)Crop ProductsAnimal
