NPC Deputy Sun Bin Helps Promoting Grain Production

Sun Bin, a 58-year-old leader of a rice cooperative in Jiamusi City’s Huanan County, has been appointed a deputy to the NPC since 2013 due to his extensive experience and skill in cultivation. He is preparing for spring farming in a greenhouse base despite the chilly weather.

He has offered 185 ideas over the last ten years, covering topics like grain storage, agricultural machinery subsidies, black soil preservation, and the development of the seed industry. Sun has travelled to more than 120 of the 192 administrative villages in the county.

He stated, “My focus has always been on issues pertaining to agriculture, rural communities, and the well-being of farmers. Heilongjiang, China’s breadbasket and home to fertile black soil, has led the nation in grain production for 13 years running.

Farmers, however, used to struggle with the problem of how to handle unwanted stalks that were left on the ground. According to NPC Deputy, while open burning of stalks is prohibited for environmental reasons, farmers must take advantage of the best springtime for farming.

In 2018, he proposed expanding the use of stalks in all their forms, including by stepping up agricultural equipment development and research as well as by providing pertinent subsidies.

The provincial government has increased its support for more effective stalk use and enhanced policies in response to the central and local authorities’ high regard for this suggestion. The use of stalks as fuel, food, fertiliser, and other resources has recently received strong support from Heilongjiang. The result is the nourishment and defence of the black earth, one of the most fertile on earth.

Authorities have also adopted his recommendations for the innovative growth of the seed industry and the agricultural modernization of significant grain production bases. “I was born and raised in the dark soil, and my fellow villagers chose me. I have to earn their confidence and respect, “said Sun.
