The Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) is mulling to establish grain production function zones as well as key agricultural product production protection zones to ensure key agricultural product safety and supply, according to Yu Xinrong, vice minister of MOA.

Grain production functional zone classification could better deploy main production areas' production capability while guiding non-main production areas to better protect and raise grain production, Yu was quoted as saying by People's Daily on December 13.

In the meantime, key agricultural product production protection zones should comply with industry transfer and industry upgrades by highlighting production areas that have production condition and cost advantages.

Northeast soybean, Xinjiang's cotton, Yangtze River basin's rapeseed as well as Guangxi and Yunnan's sugar cane production areas will be the key areas for protection.

China is expected to provide funding support for the "two zone" construction, said Yu.
