National grain stocks have reached a historic high
Behind China's eleven consecutive years of grain harvest increases, agriculture and rural areas have accumulated unprecedented contradictions and problems. For example, because domestic and international grain prices are inverted, the strange phenomenon of "imports entering the market, purchases going into storage" has appeared.

A bumper summer grain harvest is expected again this year, as the busy "three summers" season is in full swing
At present, we have entered the busy "three summers" season. How are the summer grain prospects? This year's summer grain area has increased slightly and steadily, reaching 415 million mu, an increase of more than 1 million mu over last year. Yield per unit area is expected to rise. Based on field surveys and analysis by experts, the three factors making up wheat yield are: the number of ears per mu has increased, the number of grains per ear is flat to slightly up, and the 1000-grain weight is expected to decline slightly, so an increase in yield per unit area is expected to be achieved. The high-yield trend is obvious in the main producing provinces. Main producing provinces report that wheat stands are adequate and individual plants are robust, and in particular dryland wheat is growing better than in previous years. In addition, several rounds of widespread rainfall occurred in the northern winter wheat region in April, which helped form large ears with many grains.
