Ahead of the seventh Chinese farmers' harvest festival, Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, Chinese president and chairman of the Central Military Commission, extended festive greetings and sincere regards on behalf of the CPC Central Committee to farmers and comrades working on agricultural and rural fronts across the country.

Xi pointed out that despite the adverse impacts of relatively severe natural disasters and other challenges this year, we have increased summer grain output and ensured steady production of early rice, and are expecting another bumper grain harvest throughout the year, which will provide strong support for consolidating and strengthening economic recovery and improvement as well as for promoting high-quality development.

Xi stressed that to advance Chinese modernization, it is imperative to persistently consolidate the foundation of agriculture and promote comprehensive rural revitalization. Party committees and governments at all levels should thoroughly implement the decisions and arrangements of the CPC Central Committee on agriculture, rural areas and farmers, learn from and apply the experience of the Green Rural Revival Program, and effectively ensure the stable and secure supply of grain and important agricultural products. It is equally important to continue consolidating and amplifying the achievements of poverty alleviation, and make every effort to enhance the economic benefits of agriculture, increase farmers' incomes, and inject greater vitality into the countryside, so as to bring tangible benefits to farmers. It is hoped that farmers and people from other sectors across the nation take actions to transform the rural revitalization blueprint into a reality step by step, so as to lay the foundation for the modernization of agriculture and rural areas as well as for building China into an agricultural powerhouse.
