Wang Wenbin: Hong Fanba Zheng, food is the head of politics. The Chinese government always takes the problem of good food as a top priority for the government's governance of the country, and takes food loss and waste as an important path to ensure food safety. President Xi Jinping personally advocated the CD -ROM action to create a strong atmosphere of cherishing food and opposition to waste in the whole society. China strengthen the guarantee of regulations and systems, formulate and introduce laws and regulations such as the "Anti -Food Waste Law" to standardize the behavior of consumers and catering industry; improve grain production infrastructure and equipment conditions, build more than 60 million hectares of high -standard farmland with high -yield and stable farmland, and optimize agricultural machinery equipment by optimizing agricultural machinery equipment The level of revenue of grain machines is reduced, and the loss of 2.5 billion kg of food will be recovered by the rations of grain and wheat this year alone; advanced applicable technologies such as pest control, green grain storage, and mass processing of large grain and oil are promoted, and the comprehensive loss rate of pests and insect pests controls within 5%. China actively promotes international cooperation in grain reduction. In September last year, it successfully held the International Food Decreased Conference. More than 50 countries and international organizations participated to the "Initiative of the International Food Death Decrease Conference", which strongly condensed the international consensus. China has proposed a global development initiative to list food security as one of the eight major key cooperation areas, and it is jointly promoted relevant pragmatic cooperation and measures with all parties. China also proposed an international food security cooperation initiative in the 20th Guard of Grain to propose a Chinese plan for the current global grain safety issues.

Damage reduction is a common task facing the international community, and it requires cooperation between countries around the world. According to the latest statistics of the United Nations World Grain Program, about 345 million people around the world are facing severe unsafe grain. UN Secretary -General Gutres warned that there are currently 1.6 billion people in the world who can't eat enough food, and nearly 250 million people are on the edge of famine. Under the impact of factors such as new crown pneumonia, climate change, and geopolitical conflict, the pressure of global food shortage has continued to increase, and low -income countries are facing hunger.

It is worth noting that some developed countries are regrettable in wasting food. The per capita food waste due to subjective factors ranks among the forefront of the world. The waste of resources and environmental pollution caused by the production of excess foods are even more shocking.

China is willing to share relevant experience with all parties, actively promote the global development initiative, carry out international cooperation in grain reduction, and jointly maintain global food security.We have also urged developed countries to effectively undertake international obligations, do "adding methods" in grain -saving damage, and "subtraction" on food waste."Target contribution.Foreign Ministry spokesman's office
