ration varieties will stabilise round 53.33 million ha (800 million mu), and
the area of grain will stabilise round 93.33 million ha (1.40 billion mu).
"Three stabilities" are to
stabilise self-sufficient levels of cotton, edible vegetable oil and sugar. By
2020, the areas of cotton, oil crops and sugar crops are strived to be stable
round 3.33 million ha (50 million mu), 13.33 million ha (200 million mu) and
1.60 million ha (24 million mu) respectively.
"Two coordinations" are
coordinated development between vegetable production and demand, and
coordinated development between forage production and animal husbandry. By
2020, the area of vegetables will be stable around 21.33 million ha (320
million mu). The area of forage will reach 6.33 million ha (95 million mu).
