In the first three quarters, the agricultural and rural economy maintained a trend of continuous improvement, stability and progress. The agricultural production situation is good, the grain harvest is a foregone conclusion, and the output is expected to reach the best level in history; The income situation of farmers has improved quarter by quarter, the employment channels of farmers have been continuously broadened, and rural industries have increased their income. The role of ballast stones in agriculture, rural areas and farmers is more prominent, which provides strong support for stabilizing the overall situation of economic and social development.

Recently, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs held a press conference on the operation of agricultural and rural economy in the first three quarters of this year. At present, the grain harvest is a foregone conclusion, and the output is expected to reach the best level in history; The added value of the primary industry was 4,812.3 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 2.3%; Farmers’ income was 12,297 yuan, up 1.6% year-on-year.

"In the first three quarters, the agricultural and rural economy maintained a trend of continuous improvement, stability and progress, and the role of’ three rural’ ballast stones became more prominent, providing strong support for stabilizing the overall economic and social development." Wei Baigang, chief economist of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and director of the Development Planning Department, said.

The agricultural production situation is good, and the annual grain harvest is a foregone conclusion.

In autumn and October, rice is fragrant, and this year’s agricultural harvest is hard to come by. The agricultural production situation is good, which has become a prominent highlight of the national economy.

There was another bumper harvest in the whole year, and the variety structure was further optimized. Wei Baigang introduced that summer grain and early rice have been harvested this year, with an increase of 2.42 billion Jin and 2.06 billion Jin respectively over the previous year. In particular, the area of early rice has reversed the downward trend for seven consecutive years. The harvest of autumn grain is close to 80%, and the harvest is a foregone conclusion. It is estimated that the annual grain output will hit a record high, and will remain above 1.3 trillion Jin for six consecutive years. The planting structure has been continuously optimized, with the proportion of high-quality special wheat reaching 35.8%, the area of high-quality rice further expanded, and the area of soybean is expected to increase for five consecutive years.

The green development of agriculture has been solidly promoted. The utilization rate of livestock manure resources reached 75%, achieving the set goal one year ahead of schedule; The protective farming area of black land in Northeast China reached 46 million mu, exceeding the annual target of 6 million mu; The quality and safety level of agricultural products has been steadily improved, and the supply of green and high-quality agricultural products has increased significantly. The pass rate of sampling inspection in the first three quarters has remained above 97%, which is stable at a high level.

The Yangtze River’s ban on catching and retreating has achieved phased results. A total of 84,000 fishing boats have been disposed of and 179,700 fishermen have withdrawn from the key waters of the Yangtze River Basin, basically completing the task of withdrawing fishing; 168,700 fishermen who have retired have implemented social security, accounting for 93.32% of the approved tasks; There were 118,400 people who changed jobs, accounting for 93.57% of the people who needed to change jobs; Clean up and ban 24,500 ships involved in fishing and 175,100 illegal nets, laying a solid foundation for the 10-year fishing ban in key waters of the Yangtze River basin from January 1 next year.

While doing a good job in autumn harvest, autumn and winter planting has been fully launched. The latest agricultural situation scheduling shows that the national winter wheat planting progress has reached nearly 60%, 3 percentage points faster than the same period of last year, and the winter rape planting has exceeded 40%. "Most of the areas planted in autumn this year are suitable for moisture, which is more conducive to the smooth development of autumn and winter planting." Liu Lihua, deputy director of the Planting Management Department of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said.

The income situation of farmers has improved quarter by quarter, and the actual growth rate has turned from negative to positive.

At the beginning of this year, the epidemic in COVID-19 had a great impact on farmers’ income. What is the current income situation? "In general, with the effective expansion of farmers’ employment channels, high agricultural yield and income increase, the income situation of farmers has improved quarter by quarter." Wei Baigang said. In the first three quarters, the growth rate of farmers’ income turned from negative to positive, reaching 12,297 yuan, with a real increase of 1.6%, which was 0.9 percentage points higher than that of GDP and 1.9 percentage points higher than that of urban residents.

On the one hand, broaden farmers’ employment channels.

-For migrant workers who go out for employment, timely release employment information, carry out special recruitment, and organize "point-to-point" and "one-stop" direct delivery services to ensure safe and orderly return to work. At the end of the third quarter, the number of rural laborers who went out to work reached 179 million, an increase of 2 million over the second quarter; The average monthly income was 4,035 yuan, a year-on-year increase of 2.1%.

-For migrant workers who have returned from their hometowns, we will increase support for employment and entrepreneurship, implement a one-off entrepreneurship policy, carry out employment and entrepreneurship training, expand the scale of work-based relief, and create public welfare posts. At present, migrant workers who have returned to their hometowns have basically achieved stable employment or flexible employment nearby.

On the other hand, efforts should be made to increase the income of rural industries.

-improving the efficiency of agricultural production. Guide to expand the production of high-quality special wheat and rice, and promote order production; Vigorously develop production custody services such as substituting seeds for ploughing and unified prevention and control, and the agricultural socialization service area exceeds 1.5 billion mu; Establish a docking platform for production and marketing, and strive to achieve high quality and good price of agricultural products.

-Accelerate the recovery of rural industries. At present, the agricultural product processing industry has recovered to the same level as last year. It is estimated that the operating income of the agricultural product processing industry above designated size will exceed 10 trillion yuan in the first three quarters. Leisure agriculture and rural tourism projects, such as farmhouses, restaurants and homestays, are fully open, and 1,000 rural leisure tourism routes jointly recommended by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and the Ministry of Culture and Tourism have become punching places for urban and rural residents to enjoy autumn travel during the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" period. Online sales of agricultural products have maintained double-digit growth, and it is estimated that the online retail sales in the first three quarters will exceed 300 billion yuan.

In the first three quarters, the growth rate of farmers’ income in poverty-stricken areas continued to be higher than the national average of rural residents. Wei Baigang introduced that at present, 832 poverty-stricken counties have implemented more than 1 million industrial poverty alleviation projects and built more than 300,000 industrial poverty alleviation bases. Each poverty-stricken county has formed 2-3 leading poverty alleviation industries with distinctive characteristics, and 72% of poor households have established interest links with new business entities. Industrial poverty alleviation has become a poverty alleviation measure with the widest coverage, the largest number of poor people and the greatest achievements.

"Last year, farmers’ income exceeded 16,000 yuan, doubling the target of 2010 one year ahead of schedule. As long as farmers’ income maintains positive growth this year, this goal can be consolidated. " Wei Baigang said that there are still nearly three months before the end of the year. In order to further consolidate the good momentum of increasing farmers’ income, the next step will be to implement the mid-late rice purchase policy, strengthen the connection between production and marketing, seize the window period to increase the income of migrant workers, and cooperate with the human and social departments to do a good job in supervising the unpaid wages of migrant workers at the end of the year, so that migrant workers who have worked hard for a year can get their income in full and on time and go home happily for the New Year.

Investment in agriculture and rural areas has rebounded rapidly, and infrastructure has been accelerated.

The decisive battle to get rid of poverty and build a well-off society in an all-round way has a heavy task in the field of agriculture, rural areas and farmers. This year, the No.1 Document of the Central Committee and the Government Work Report have made comprehensive arrangements for the work concerning agriculture, rural areas and farmers. Wei Baigang introduced that at the beginning of this year, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs specially studied, formulated and issued the implementation opinions on the deployment of key tasks throughout the year, and identified 37 key tasks, which are progressing smoothly and many of them have been basically completed.

In July this year, seven ministries and commissions, including the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, issued policy documents to expand effective investment in agriculture and rural areas, and identified 11 key areas to make up for shortcomings. Recently, the General Offices of the General Office of the Central Committee of the CPC and the State Council issued the Opinions on Adjusting and Perfecting the Use Scope of Land Transfer Income to Give Priority to Rural Revitalization, requiring that the proportion of local land transfer income used for agriculture and rural areas should reach more than 50% by the end of the 14th Five-Year Plan period.

Driven by a series of policies with high gold content, investment in agriculture and rural areas has rebounded rapidly, and the shortcomings of infrastructure have been accelerated. All localities have increased the support of local government bonds in the fields of agriculture, rural areas and farmers, focusing on supporting high-standard farmland, rural human settlements improvement, modern agricultural industrial parks, and cold chain logistics facilities for agricultural products storage and preservation. From January to August, it supported the issuance of bonds totaling 108.4 billion yuan. Driven by various policies and major projects, the investment in fixed assets in the primary industry reached 1,165.3 billion yuan in the first three quarters, up 14.5% year-on-year, achieving positive growth for four consecutive months, with the growth rate increasing by 16.7 percentage points over the same period of last year.

"Next, we must continue to strengthen the construction of agricultural and rural infrastructure." Wei Baigang introduced that the construction of high-standard farmland should ensure the completion of 80 million mu for the hard task of benchmarking this year; Complete the three-year action objectives and tasks of rural human settlements improvement in an all-round way, promote rural toilet improvement in an orderly manner, and promote rural domestic garbage sewage treatment as a whole; Improve the level of resource utilization of livestock manure, and ensure that the supporting facilities for manure treatment in large-scale farms reach 95% and that in large-scale farms reach 100%. At the same time, it is also necessary to support farmers’ cooperatives and family farms to build cold chain logistics facilities for agricultural products storage and preservation, and improve the level of commercialization of agricultural products.

　　Promoting rural revitalization in an all-round way is an important task of building an agricultural power in the new era, and developing rural industries is an important foundation for rural revitalization in an all-round way. The Central Rural Work Conference held at the end of 2023 proposed "cultivating rural industries accurately and pragmatically". In 2024, the No.1 Document of the Central Committee emphasized "improving the development level of rural industries". In recent years, China has continuously strengthened the basic position of agriculture, based on characteristic resources, developed advantageous industries and promoted the high-quality development of rural industries. In this issue, invited experts will discuss relevant issues.

　　Rural industries step into the fast lane of development.

　　At present, what is the development status and trend of rural industries in China? What aspects should we focus on to improve the development level of rural industries and increase farmers’ income?

　　Zhang Zhaoxin (researcher, Rural Economic Research Center, Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs): In order to promote rural economic growth, China has vigorously developed agriculture and related industries. From developing township enterprises, proposing and promoting agricultural industrialization management to promoting the integration and development of rural primary, secondary and tertiary industries, we can see that the ideas of strengthening rural economy and promoting rural industrial development come down in one continuous line. With the implementation of rural revitalization strategy, rural industries have entered a period of accelerated development. In 2019, "Guiding Opinions of the State Council on Promoting the Revitalization of Rural Industries" put forward six tasks: strengthening modern breeding industry, perfecting local characteristic industry, improving agricultural products processing and circulation industry, optimizing rural leisure tourism, cultivating new rural service industry and developing rural information industry. In 2024, the No.1 Document of the Central Committee emphasized "improving the development level of rural industries" and made arrangements for promoting the integration and development of rural primary, secondary and tertiary industries.

　　Driven by factors such as market, policy and technology, rural industries have entered the fast lane of development, the modernization level of agricultural industrial chain supply chain has been continuously improved, the integration of agriculture, culture and tourism has been accelerated, and rural innovation and entrepreneurship are in full swing. In 2022, the added value of China’s agriculture and related industries exceeded 19 trillion yuan, and the operating income of agricultural products processing enterprises above designated size exceeded 19 trillion yuan. In 2023, the online retail sales of agricultural products was 0.59 trillion yuan.

　　At present, China’s rural industries show the trend of integration, clustering, greening and digitalization. First, the rural multi-format has developed rapidly. While the agricultural industry is accelerating its transformation and upgrading, the processing and circulation of agricultural products, rural tourism and leisure agriculture are developing rapidly, and all localities are also vigorously developing various folk handicraft industries to provide more employment opportunities for rural labor. Second, rural industries have achieved integrated development. Agriculture, rural tourism and characteristic industries are mutually integrated and promoted, and family farms, farmers’ professional cooperatives and various rural enterprises continue to grow and develop. Rural innovation and entrepreneurship have flourished as migrant farmers return home, college graduates and veterans return home, and urban industrial and commercial capital goes to the countryside. With the deepening of the reform of rural collective property rights system, a number of new rural collective economic organizations have become an important force to promote rural development. Third, rural industries have achieved cluster development. In recent years, all localities have made great efforts to develop modern agricultural industrial parks and industrial clusters, promote agricultural scale and professional layout, and accelerate the development of rural industrial clusters. In 2023, the construction of China’s modern agricultural parks was upgraded, and 50 national modern agricultural industrial parks, 40 industrial clusters with advantages and characteristics, 200 strong agricultural towns and 100 agricultural modernization demonstration zones were built. Fourth, the greening and digital transformation of rural industries have accelerated. With the in-depth implementation of the new development concept, clean production and low-carbon production modes such as water saving, fertilizer saving, medicine saving, energy saving and emission reduction have been widely promoted in rural areas, accelerating the green transformation of rural industries. At the same time, the level of rural informatization has been continuously improved.The pace of digital rural construction is accelerating, the exploration of smart agriculture is competing, and new formats of digital economy are constantly emerging. In 2023, the rural online retail sales reached 2.49 trillion yuan.

　　The Central Rural Work Conference held at the end of 2023 proposed "cultivating rural industries accurately and pragmatically". To implement the spirit of the central government, we should improve the development level of rural industries from the following aspects and enhance its role in promoting farmers’ income.

　　Promote the development of rural industries with industrial parks and industrial clusters as platforms. Building industrial clusters with advantages and characteristics is an important way to promote the overall revitalization of rural areas. In recent years, with the support of various localities and relevant departments, a number of industrial parks, such as modern agricultural industrial park, agricultural science and technology park, and demonstration park for the integration and development of the first, second and third industries, have accelerated their development and formed related industrial clusters, which have become important carriers for the agglomeration of rural elements. In the future, we should continue to strengthen the construction of platform carriers such as modern agricultural industrial parks, industrial clusters with advantages and characteristics, and towns with strong agricultural industries, and integrate policies, elements and centralized services, so as to promote the upgrading, quality improvement and efficiency improvement of rural industries through these platform carriers.

　　To improve the comprehensive carrying capacity of county towns and promote county overall planning. County is the main battlefield of rural industrial revitalization. It is necessary to coordinate new urbanization and rural comprehensive revitalization, improve the comprehensive carrying capacity and governance capacity of county towns, continuously enhance the driving and radiating role of county towns in rural areas, and promote the coordinated development of counties, towns and villages. Specifically, the county should improve the functions of product research and development, quality inspection, logistics and distribution, finance and insurance, strengthen the services of scientific and technological guidance and personnel training for rural production bases, improve the division of labor and cooperation, form an effective connection, and enhance the momentum of county economic development.

　　The key is to improve the mechanism of linking agriculture with agriculture, and give play to the function of rural industrial belt to promote employment and increase income. Promoting farmers’ income is the central task of "agriculture, countryside and farmers". On the one hand, we should continue to vigorously develop agricultural socialized services, improve the standardization level of farmers’ professional cooperatives, and enhance farmers’ self-development ability through service empowerment and organizational empowerment; On the other hand, encourage agriculture-related enterprises and farmers to achieve complementary advantages, division of labor and cooperation, improve the interest linkage mechanism, so that farmers can share more industrial value-added benefits. In addition, it is necessary to further improve the policy of supporting agriculture, link the support policy with increasing farmers’ income, and improve the enthusiasm and initiative of agriculture-related enterprises to jointly promote agriculture.

　　Relying on resource endowment to promote industry and increase income

　　What practical explorations have been made in various places in cultivating and expanding rural industries?

　　Lv Zhiwang (Research Fellow, National Institute of Agricultural and Rural Development, China Agricultural University): Industrial revitalization is the most important thing in the overall revitalization of rural areas. Many beneficial explorations have been made to cultivate and strengthen rural industries, and all localities have based on their own resource advantages, insisted on promoting agriculture through industry, quality and green, and promoted the value chain of industrial chain.

　　Relying on the characteristic resources of agriculture and rural areas, do a good job in the article of "local products" Around the advantages of agricultural products, the construction of modern agricultural industrial parks, industrial clusters with advantages and characteristics, strong agricultural towns, etc., promote standardized production and deep processing, strengthen brand building and marketing, and drive farmers to increase their income. In 2023, relevant departments focused on important agricultural products and featured agricultural products, supported the establishment of 21 agricultural industry standards in the field of agricultural product processing, and guided all localities to upgrade and build 1,600 agricultural product processing parks. According to the data of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, in 2023, China will build 50 national modern agricultural industrial parks, 40 industrial clusters with advantages and characteristics, and 200 towns with strong agricultural industries.

　　For example, Jilin Province has promoted the construction of industrial clusters such as corn and rice, miscellaneous grains and beans, fruits and vegetables, and created a national modern agricultural industrial park to accelerate the integration and development of rural primary, secondary and tertiary industries. Jingbian county, Yulin city, Shaanxi province promotes the development of rural industries with the construction of agricultural industrial parks. The construction of agricultural industrial park can effectively integrate resources, improve the intensive degree of production and operation, cultivate and expand the breeding and processing industries, and guide the transformation and upgrading of traditional agriculture to more efficient characteristic industries. Longzhou Town, Jingbian County, relying on the superior natural landscape and the tradition of planting high-quality millet, has built a millet industrial park integrating agriculture and tourism through the joint construction of towns and villages. Farmers, farmers’ professional cooperatives and enterprises entering the park are respectively responsible for planting, harvesting and processing and sales of agricultural products. In addition to producing high-quality millet, the industrial chain also extends downstream, and processed products such as crispy rice and rice flour have formed brands and been recognized by the market.

　　Strengthening and improving rural industries cannot be separated from the support of social capital. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs compiles the annual Guidelines for Social Capital Investment in Agriculture and Rural Areas and guides local implementation. The Guidelines for Social Capital Investment in Agriculture and Rural Areas (2022) focuses on key areas of rural revitalization and encourages social capital to invest in modern breeding, rural enriching industries, agricultural product processing and circulation industries and other fields. In 2023, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs predicted that in the next 5 to 10 years, the demand for agricultural and rural investment will be nearly 15 trillion yuan.

　　Qingfu Agricultural Commune in Changyi City, Shandong Province is a modern agricultural development complex jointly promoted by local leading enterprises, village collectives and several farmers’ professional cooperatives. With the support of the local government, the complex has invested hundreds of millions of yuan to transform tens of thousands of acres of saline-alkali land, and also invested more than 100 million yuan in production machinery and equipment, greatly improving the level of agricultural intensification. The complex makes full use of the advantages of grain and forage yield, expands flour processing, beef cattle breeding and slaughter processing, and effectively uses straw and cow dung to form circular agriculture. The village collective shares in the "four wasteland" and the impounded bay pond, and farmers share in the contracted land. Rural laborers can also enter the park to work, and their income has increased significantly.

　　To realize industrial revitalization, it is necessary to stimulate rural endogenous power, and the reform of rural collective property rights system promoted by China in recent years is one of the important starting points. Sanya City, Hainan Province, as a national experimental area for rural reform, has continuously deepened the reform of rural collective property rights system, made great efforts to build rural leading industries and promote the development of collective economy by integrating and revitalizing collective resources. Yacheng Village, Yazhou District, combined with the natural advantages of planting fruits and vegetables in four seasons, developed greenhouse vegetables and winter melons and vegetables, and the economic benefits were significantly improved. The village integrates scattered idle land, builds a vegetable planting base, and promotes the scale and specialization of agricultural production and management in various ways such as independent operation or collective assets, builds a characteristic vegetable brand, and also drives the employment of farmers in the village.

　　Industrial revitalization was not built in a day. On the whole, there are still some obstacles to development that need to be removed. First, in view of the constraints of land and funds, we can revitalize the idle asset resources of rural collectives and incite social capital through institutional mechanism innovation. Second, on the problem of solving the shortage of talents, we will continue to encourage returning talents to innovate and start businesses, and strive to cultivate leaders in rural industrial revitalization. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs implemented the "Touyan" project to cultivate rural industry revitalization leaders, and constantly consolidated the talent base for rural industry revitalization. Third, continuously explore and optimize the interest linkage mechanism, expand employment opportunities, and let farmers share the fruits of development. At the same time, further cultivate and build brands, give play to the demonstration effect, and radiate to drive the development of rural industries.

　　Rural innovation and entrepreneurship promote efficient allocation of factors

　　What is the effect of promoting rural innovation and entrepreneurship? How to further improve the vitality of rural innovation and entrepreneurship?

　　Wang Chunchun (Secretary of the Party Committee of Nanjing Agricultural University): In recent years, China’s rural innovation and entrepreneurship have flourished, which has effectively promoted the revitalization of rural industries and increased farmers’ income. The number of entrepreneurs returning to their hometowns has been rising, and a number of "new farmers" who have feelings, know technology, are good at management and know how to manage have emerged, and entrepreneurs with higher education have gradually become entrepreneurs in the fields of integrated development of the first, second and third industries, rural e-commerce, and high-end agricultural products breeding. According to the data of the National Bureau of Statistics, the added value of agriculture and related industries reached 19,569.2 billion yuan in 2022, accounting for 16.24% of the GDP, and the total amount and proportion increased compared with the previous year.

　　Innovation and entrepreneurship in rural areas is conducive to the efficient allocation of various elements and the effective integration of industrial chain, innovation chain and talent chain. In recent years, policies such as "Guiding Opinions of the State Council on Promoting Rural Industry Revitalization" and "Opinions on Deepening the Cultivation Action of Rural Innovation and Entrepreneurship Leaders" have been promulgated to promote the implementation of rural employment and entrepreneurship promotion actions, clarify the cultivation priorities, strengthen policy support, strengthen entrepreneurship training, optimize entrepreneurship services, etc., and make specific arrangements for relevant support measures. With the support of policies, all localities have made great efforts to promote rural innovation and entrepreneurship, actively carried out grassroots practice, and explored modes such as characteristic industry-driven, industrial integration and innovation-driven, capable people returning to the countryside-driven, and leading enterprises-driven, which greatly enriched the practice of rural industry development. These models are the manifestations of the integration of industrial chain, innovation chain and talent chain in different regions, which can be summarized as follows.

　　First, the industrial chain will drive innovation chain and the talent chain. Based on different resource endowments and industrial bases, all localities take the park as the carrier to promote industrial integration and the optimization and upgrading of the whole industrial chain, guide innovative resources and talents to gather in the industrial park, form a number of products and germplasm resources with independent intellectual property rights, and accelerate the application of new varieties, new technologies and new equipment. Industrial parks cooperate with scientific research institutes, build industrial technology research institutes, carry out technical research, promote the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and industrial development effectively drives scientific and technological innovation and personnel training.

　　The second is to promote the industrial chain and innovation chain with the talent chain. Through the cultivation of agricultural talents, it will inject vitality into the development of rural industries. In 2023, the leaders of rural industrial revitalization cultivated the "Touyan" project, which further tilted to the key counties for national rural revitalization, and cultivated about 18,000 "Touyan" people, effectively promoting rural innovation and entrepreneurship. Driven by innovative and entrepreneurial talents, all localities rely on characteristic agricultural resources, make rational use of modern elements such as science and technology, face market demand, cultivate and develop regional public brands of agricultural products with local characteristics, and constantly improve the vitality and innovation ability of rural industries. At the same time, sports events are used to stimulate college students’ enthusiasm for returning to their hometowns to participate in rural innovation and entrepreneurship, and related events pay more and more attention to the combination of rural revitalization.

　　Third, innovation chain incited the industrial chain and talent chain. Many innovative subjects, such as scientific research institutes, take the initiative to meet the needs of the industry, and optimize personnel training through the integration of production and education. Taking the cooperation between Nanjing Agricultural University and xinghua city, Jiangsu Province as an example, the two sides set up an agricultural science and technology platform to accurately cultivate "new farmers" who meet the needs of the industry, helping xinghua city to achieve remarkable results in advantageous industries such as rice and river crabs. In recent years, some agriculture-related universities have actively promoted talent training modes such as science and technology academies, served the development of agriculture and rural areas, and trained a number of high-quality rural innovative and entrepreneurial talents.

　　China’s rural innovation and entrepreneurship has made remarkable progress, but the comparative benefit of agriculture is low, and the integration of industrial demand with scientific and technological innovation and personnel training needs to be improved. In order to further improve the vitality of rural innovation and entrepreneurship, on the one hand, we should continue to strengthen our understanding of the importance of rural innovation and entrepreneurship and give long-term and stable policy support; On the other hand, we should improve the system and mechanism of rural innovation and entrepreneurship, further break through the barriers of Industry-University-Research, and give play to the role of universities in building a platform for the integration of industrial chain, innovation chain and talent chain, so as to promote the effective combination of talents, science and technology and industry in the agricultural and rural areas.

　　Inject new kinetic energy into the comprehensive revitalization of the countryside

　　What is the current development of new rural industries and new formats?

　　Jia Wei (researcher, Institute of Agricultural Economics and Development, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences): Rural industries are rich in connotation and diverse in types. Relying on the characteristic resources of agriculture and rural areas, all localities develop various functions of agriculture, tap the diversified values of rural areas, and promote the integrated development of primary, secondary and tertiary industries. New industries and formats, such as rural leisure tourism and rural e-commerce, have achieved rapid development with the support of a series of favorable policies, helped promote the comprehensive revitalization of rural areas, and effectively promoted agricultural efficiency, rural beauty and farmers’ income.

　　China has implemented leisure agriculture and rural tourism quality projects, cultivated beautiful leisure villages and key rural tourism villages, and established demonstration counties of leisure agriculture, etc., and rural leisure tourism has developed rapidly. The data shows that in 2022, the business income of rural leisure tourism exceeded 700 billion yuan, with more than 11 million employees. Rural leisure tourism promoted the development of about 9 million farmers.

　　Leisure agriculture, based on agricultural production, rural landscape, farm life and rural culture, develops various functions of agriculture and rural areas and provides services such as leisure sightseeing, farm participation and farm experience. In 2023, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs identified 60 counties (cities, districts) as national key leisure agriculture counties, and recommended 256 villages as beautiful leisure villages in China.

　　All localities have vigorously developed rural leisure tourism, and rural tourism has a strong recovery momentum. The White Paper on the Revitalization of Ctrip Rural Tourism (2023) shows that in 2023, the supply of villagers’ lodging in Ctrip Platform Township created the highest growth in five years. In 2023, the comprehensive income of leisure agriculture in Jiangsu Province was 107.78 billion yuan, and the number of tourists received reached 410 million, up by 18.83% and 16.67% respectively. In 2023, Liaoning Province made great efforts to promote the development of new formats such as leisure agriculture, focusing on promoting 8 beautiful leisure villages and 23 fine scenic spots in China. Leisure agriculture and rural tourism received 53.55 million tourists, up 43% year-on-year. Langfang City, Hebei Province has built a leisure agriculture industrial cluster around the goal of building the first agricultural leisure space in Beijing and Tianjin, with about 30,000 employees. Dujiangyan City, Sichuan Province, cultivates pastoral cultural creation, farming experience and villagers’ lodging, creates immersive and experiential consumption scenes such as Qili Poetry Township, and has new rural leisure landmarks such as "Sanjiang Lane Cultural Creation Industry Belt" and "Huarui Hometown Cultural Experience Belt". The development of leisure agriculture has injected new kinetic energy into rural revitalization. Hejiayan Village, Huatian Township, Youyang Tujia and Miao Autonomous County, Chongqing City, revitalized idle resources, embedded rural lodging, rural tourism, rural entertainment and other formats into farmers, and built farmhouse restaurants, high-end homestays, unmanned convenience stores, cafes, etc. to create a new compound rural format.

　　In 2024, the No.1 Document of the Central Committee proposed to implement the high-quality development project of rural e-commerce, promote the construction of county-level e-commerce live broadcast bases, and develop online sales of rural local products. In recent years, rural e-commerce is full of vitality. With the improvement of rural network coverage and infrastructure construction, rural e-commerce has developed rapidly and the online sales of agricultural products have increased. In 2023, the rural online retail sales reached 2.49 trillion yuan, and the online retail sales of agricultural products reached 0.59 trillion yuan.

　　Rural e-commerce infrastructure has been continuously improved. The 52nd Statistical Report on Internet Development in China shows that by June 2023, the Internet penetration rate in rural areas of China was 60.5%, and the number of rural netizens reached 301 million. The development of agricultural products e-commerce effectively helps local economic development. For example, Dangshan County, Anhui Province seized the opportunity to create national e-commerce in rural comprehensive demonstration counties, vigorously supported local e-commerce brands, and laid a good brand of "internet plus Fruit" by means of "e-commerce+live broadcast".

　　While the new industries and formats in rural areas have achieved development results, we should also see that the product structure of rural leisure tourism is still single, the level of software and hardware facilities construction is relatively low, and the infrastructure construction such as rural e-commerce logistics needs to be further improved. New industries and new formats integrate marketing operations, warehousing and logistics, talent cultivation, financial support and other links, and it is difficult to update and upgrade in rural areas. On the basis of cultivating and developing new industries and new formats according to local conditions, we can continue to strengthen a package of policy support such as finance, land, finance and insurance. Enhance the market competitiveness with science and technology empowerment, integrate science and technology, digital technology and other factors into the development of new industries and formats in rural areas, and pay attention to both talent introduction and education to enhance the sustainable operation ability of new industries and formats.

Ok, to adapt to slow-paced travel, Anxi has opened six bus lines leading to scenic spots, and also completed the upgrading of parking lots in some scenic spots such as Fengshan.

Traveling, introducing technology and implanting AR technology in scenic spots have become a "sharp weapon" to attract young people.

Through the pictures and texts of media reporters and short videos of bloggers, they appeared on newspaper screens and social platforms, bringing heat and passenger flow to this "Inner Anxi" tea-scented town.

Xianghua’s spring marketing is the spontaneous initiative of villages and towns, and it is also a habit formed under the atmosphere that the county attaches importance to marketing. Event and event marketing, Anxi keeps walking-

County leaders set an example by themselves. From June to September, 2023, "Feng Ming Yu Xi-Anxi Historical and Cultural Exhibition" was exhibited in China National Museum. Wu Yuzhou, secretary of Anxi County Party Committee, also went to Guobo Lecture Hall to give a lecture on the theme of "A Talk on Anxi’s History and Culture" to promote and promote a thick, rich and flesh-and-blood Anxi. "Northeast old irons, I’d like you to meet a friend from Anxi, Fujian, also called" old irons ",whose name is" Tieguanyin ". This year, in the Year of the Loong, the Northeast Old Tiers also came to see the dragon in Anxi, the oolong in southern Fujian.

Ambassadors of various countries who were dumped by Oriental Jiaming took the initiative to announce some praises on social media.

In the past year, Anxi has opened a short video platform account, and the WeChat WeChat official account of Anxi County Cultural and Sports Tourism Bureau has repeatedly entered the top 10 of the monthly communication index of new media in cultural tourism in counties (cities, districts) of Fujian Province.

At the same time, Anxi is also thinking about such a profound topic with Quanzhou and the province-how to make the flow become "reserved", "online celebrity" become "long red" and attract more attention. With the project as the backbone, investment promotion as the stamina and talent team as the support, Anxi will look to the longer term.

On the occasion of the centenary of the founding of the Communist Party of China (CPC), the "July 1st Medal" symbolizing the highest honor in the Party was awarded for the first time. On the morning of June 29th, the winners of the "July 1st Medal" were escorted by the motorcycle concierge team to the solemn Great Hall of the People, and the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader personally put on the "July 1st Medal" for them.

△ On June 29th, 2021, the winners of the "July 1st Medal" set off from their residence in a concierge car and were escorted by the State Guest Guard to the Great Hall of the People.

The July 1st Medal, the highest honor of the country, the Republic Medal, the highest honor of the army, the highest honor of the country abroad, the Friendship Medal and the national honorary title, together constitute the five highest honors in China.

△ General Secretary of the Supreme Leader of the exclusive V-View: The winner of the "July 1 Medal" is an ordinary hero who is based on his own position and silently contributes.

At the awarding ceremony, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said: "‘ July 1st Medal ’ The winners are all from the people and rooted in the people. They are ordinary heroes who are based on their duties and silently contribute. "

Ordinary hero, but hit the floor in just four words. This is a high praise to the winners of the July 1st Medal and a high summary of their spiritual quality. "In them, they vividly reflect the noble quality and lofty spirit of the Communist Party of China (CPC) people’s firm belief, practical purpose, hard work and dedication, honesty and dedication."

Many of the 29 "July 1st Medal" winners are heroes from the eventful years. Comrade Guo Ruixiang, who is 101 years old, is one year older than the Communist Party of China (CPC). He joined the revolution at the age of 16 and joined the Communist Party of China (CPC) at the age of 17, and fought heroically in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the Liberation War. 97-year-old Comrade Sun Jingkun participated in the battles of Siping, Liaoshen, Pingjin, the liberation of Changsha, the liberation of Hainan Island, and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea. Comrade Chai Yunzhen, 95, and Comrade Wang Zhanshan, 92, fought tooth and nail in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea … …

They embody the Communist Party of China (CPC) people’s selfless and fearless dedication and indomitable spirit of struggle, and their great heroism is passed down from generation to generation in the Communist Party of China (CPC).

Among the winners of the "July 1st Medal", 81-year-old Comrade Wei Deyou made his home on the border of the motherland. He patrolled the border for more than 50 years, with a total mileage of more than 200,000 kilometers, equivalent to five laps around the equator. Comrade Wang Shumao, 65, never budged in the struggle for rights protection in the South China Sea. He was not afraid of sacrifice and resolutely defended the territorial sovereignty and maritime rights and interests of the motherland.

In June, 2020, Comrade Chen Hongjun, a frontier officer, faced with the violent and provocative acts of foreign troops. Under the situation that the number of enemy troops was several times that of ours, he led soldiers to break through the encirclement and rescue the colonel until he died heroically. People all over the country were moved to tears. People have come to the grave of Comrade Chen Hongjun to offer flowers, and the message reads — — "Heroes are immortal!"

For heroes, the Supreme Leader General Secretary always has high respect in his heart. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the General Secretary has visited the Red Revolutionary Holy Land, the Red Former Site and the Revolutionary Historical Memorial Site. He has presented flower baskets again and again, visited the cultural relics again and again, visited the veterans again and again, and expressed his reverence and remembrance for the heroes.

The 29 "July 1st Medal" winners are also ordinary heroes. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader said: "Their deeds can be learned and done, and their spirit can be traced."

Ordinary heroes are around the people. Comrade Wang Lanhua from wuzhong, Ningxia devoted himself to solving the worries, worries and worries of community residents, and was called "Living Lei Feng". Comrade Wu Tianyi has devoted himself to plateau medical research for more than 50 years, and Comrade Xin Ziyuan is the founder of thoracic surgery in China. On the way out of poverty, Comrade Huang Dafa led the local people to dig a "life canal" on the precipice. Comrade Huang Wenxiu visited 195 poor households and hand-painted the "distribution map of poor households" & HELIP; …

Their touching stories once again prove that greatness comes from the ordinary, and the ordinary makes the great.

In the face of the epidemic, people in China feel more deeply the greatness of ordinary heroes around them. Medical workers are dressed in white, and they go on a retrograde expedition. Engineering builders fly around the clock in Dai Yue, community workers work hard day and night, and there are logistics guarantors who have traveled thousands of miles to transport materials, and the earliest sanitation worker who woke up in the city & HELIP; … These ordinary people have the greatest strength.

General Secretary of the Supreme Leader once sent a deep message: "As long as you have firm ideals and beliefs, unremitting spirit of struggle, and do everything ordinary in a down-to-earth manner, all ordinary people can get an extraordinary life and all ordinary work can create extraordinary achievements."

Awarding the "July 1st Medal" on the occasion of the party’s centenary birthday is not only a praise for outstanding representatives of Communist party member, but also an incentive for more than 91 million Communist party member.

Everyone is amazing in the new era! Learn from the noble quality and lofty spirit of the winners of the July 1st Medal, and each of us should strive to be an ordinary hero.

In response to media reports that pork products such as dumplings were positive for African swine fever virus nucleic acid, the General Administration of Market Supervision and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs have asked enterprises to immediately trace the source of pork raw materials and dispose of pork products. At present, the two departments have sent a joint inspection team to investigate and verify the relevant situation, requiring pork products manufacturers to further strengthen the control of pork raw materials, implement the inspection and quarantine ticket inspection regulations, improve the African swine fever detection and review system, and prevent infected pork raw materials from entering the food processing link. Enterprises that fail to fulfill their prevention and control responsibilities as required will be severely punished once they are found.

　　　　　　 Sanquan Food: Suspected batch products have been sealed.

　　　　　　 In this incident, it was revealed that several batches of soup dumplings produced in Sanquan Food were suspected of African swine fever virus. In this regard, Sanquan Food announced yesterday (18th) that the company had sealed all relevant suspected batches of products from all sales channels for the first time. At the same time, the Henan provincial government has sent a joint investigation team to Hunan and Gansu respectively to check the relevant situation with relevant local departments.

　　　　　　 Expert: There are four possibilities for quick-frozen food to be infected with virus.

　　　　　　 After the incident was exposed, netizens raised some questions, such as: How did African swine fever virus flow into frozen food? In this regard, a reporter from Voice of China interviewed Yi Zhu, an associate professor at the College of Food Science and Nutritional Engineering of China Agricultural University. Yi Zhu pointed out that the most extreme situation is that sick and dead pork is mixed into the production process. In addition, there are three possibilities.

　　　　　　 Yi Zhu, Associate Professor of College of Food Science and Nutritional Engineering, China Agricultural University, said: "The first reason is that the detection methods have been greatly improved and the detection sensitivity is very high. Even if there are only a few viruses, it can be detected. The second reason is that when pork was imported and slaughtered, some pigs with latent disease were not identified. It has been carrying African swine fever virus, the incubation period is about 5 to 19 days, and there is no disease. If you don’t do special disease detection, you can’t see it with the naked eye, so that such pork is mixed into the supplied products. The third reason is that there is no problem with pork itself, but it is polluted by African swine fever virus in transportation, processing and packaging. "

　　　　　　 Expert: It will not infect people and will not affect food safety.

　　　　　　 Another question that everyone cares about is, is African swine fever virus harmful to human body? Can pork still be eaten?

　　　　　　 Experts from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs have responded to this repeatedly mentioned question. African swine fever is not zoonotic and will not infect people. At the same time, it will not infect other animals except pigs and will not affect food safety. In addition, experts also said that high temperature can kill African swine fever virus, and continuous heating at 60 degrees Celsius for 20 minutes can kill the virus. Therefore, everyone can safely consume the quarantined pork.

　　　　　　 However, is African swine fever virus harmless to human body? In an interview with Yi Zhu, an associate professor at the College of Food Science and Nutritional Engineering of China Agricultural University, Yi Zhu said that although African swine fever virus does not pose a health risk to people, pigs with African swine fever belong to sick pigs, and there is no reason to walk on the shelves and dining tables.

　　　　　　 What is African swine fever? It was diagnosed in Africa in 1921 and ravaged many countries in 2018.

　　　　　　 African swine fever is an acute and severe infectious disease of pigs infected by African swine fever virus. It was first diagnosed in Kenya in 1921, and it raged in many countries around the world in 2018. More than 6,200 outbreaks were reported in 22 countries. In August 2018, the first African swine fever epidemic occurred in Shenbei New District, Shenyang, Liaoning Province. Subsequently, epidemics also occurred in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province, and Wenzhou, Zhejiang Province.

　　　　　　 According to the survey, there are three main transmission routes of African swine fever in China: the transportation of pigs and their products in different places, the feeding of kitchen waste to pigs and the spread of viruses carried by people and vehicles, accounting for 16.3%, 42.9% and 40.8% respectively. Among them, the spread of viruses carried by kitchen waste feeding pigs and personnel vehicles accounts for the vast majority.

　　　　　　 In January this year, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs formulated and issued the "Emergency Implementation Plan for African Classical Swine Fever Epidemic (2019 Edition)" to guide all localities to deal with the epidemic in a strict and standardized manner. The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs said that the current epidemic situation in China is in a state of sporadic distribution, and the epidemic situation is generally controllable. However, because the traditional farming structure is difficult to fundamentally change in a short period of time, the transmission route of the epidemic is complicated, and the prevention and control situation is still complicated and severe.

Original title: Fantastic Animals 3: The Mystery of Dumbledore: Has the magical world lost its charm?

With the aura of "Harry Potter", Fantastic Animals 3: The Mystery of Dumbledore came at last under the impact of the COVID-19 epidemic, which can be described as full of ambition. However, the reality is not satisfactory. Whether it’s a die-hard Harry Potter fan, a new "magic animal" fan, or a passerby audience, it seems that they are not satisfied with this new film. Douban score has been falling all the way, from 7.7 in the first part to 7.0 in the second part, and now to 6.1 in the third part. Also directed by David Yates and written by J.K. Rowling, why did the quality of Fantastic Animals 3 drop so badly? To answer this question, we need to go back to the beginning of the whole "Harry Potter movie universe".

In 1997, Joanne Catherine Rowling, a 32-year-old English teacher living in Britain, applied for a grant of 13,000 pounds from the Scottish Art Association, and finally she was able to crystallize her years of hard work — — The novel Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone was delivered for publication. At that time, Joanne probably didn’t realize that the story of this little wizard, which she conceived on a train trip many years ago, will be translated into 73 languages in the next 20 years, with global sales exceeding 500 million copies and making her one of the richest women in the world.

"Harry Potter" can become the largest IP with the most global influence in the early 21st century, and Warner Pictures has contributed a lot. From the first film "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone" in 2001 to the final chapter of the series in 2011, eight films were made in ten years, with a global box office of over 7.7 billion dollars. Because movies have stronger penetration ability than novels, although the content of novels inevitably gains and losses in the process of film adaptation, more audiences are familiar with Harry Potter’s story series through movies. Especially since the fifth part, novels and movies have started a mutual promotion development model, and through the iterative development of the global network new media community, the attention of the global audience has been continuously enhanced. Unfortunately, due to various restrictions, Harry Potter’s novels finally ended in the seventh Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. From the perspective of literary creation, the end of the seven-part series is not perfect, but it is quite wonderful enough to make J.K. Rowling a legendary writer in the history of children’s literature in the world. However, for Warner Pictures, the film producer, this is far from enough. Anyone who knows a little about the operation mode of modern commercial films will know that the biggest risk of the film industry comes from the uncertainty of the box office. And a film series can create a stable box office of about 960 million dollars per film in ten years. For film companies,Undoubtedly, it is an indispensable "cash cow" and an excellent material for the company’s management to "tell stories" about the capital market. Therefore, for film companies, the popularity of the Harry Potter series must continue in some form. This is what we know today as the "Fantastic Animals" series.

In the wizarding world of Harry Potter, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is a very important book, which describes all kinds of magical creatures in the wizarding world. This book was written by J.K. Rowling under the guise of "Newt Scarmand", which can be regarded as the author’s attempt to further present the "magical world" in his mind, and also laid the groundwork for the subsequent brand-new creative plan.

At the end of 2016, "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" was released as the first film in the Fantastic Animals series. This is the first original film based on "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter", and it is also the beginning of the prequel five-part series of Harry Potter. It is worth noting that in July of the same year, the stage play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, as an orthodox sequel to the Harry Potter series, was released in Britain, which was also an original work without novel support. Connecting the two, it is not difficult to see that the consensus of all parties concerned with IP interests at this time is that not only the story system should be added, but also the business model should be subtracted — — It doesn’t matter whether there is an original novel or not. The name "Harry Potter" alone can pry open the public’s wallet.

But from the actual effect, it is not satisfactory. On closer inspection, the main stage of both novels and movies is at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which can be described as "small scenes and big scenes", and the creators can be as elaborate as ivory carvings. From novels to movies, professional film production teams can simplify the original works and highlight the backbone, so that the original party and passers-by audience can be satisfied separately.

However, in the series of Fantastic Animals, the film creation is gradually developing in the direction of collapse, and the key point is that all stakeholders in IP want too much — — It is necessary to position itself as a prequel to Harry Potter and show the long-cherished wish of Dumbledore and the first generation of "the Great Devil" Grindelwald; It is also necessary to show magical creatures and expand the scope of "the magical world of Harry Potter"; It is also necessary to get rid of the positioning of "youth movies" and March towards all ages, and even evolve into a "movie universe" … … Objectively speaking, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the first film in the series, still maintains the consistent tonality of the Harry Potter series, J.K. Rowling’s iconic "suspense-reversal" narrative mode continues, and the display of magical animals is basically the driving factor of the main plot. However, in Fantastic Animals 2: The Crime of Grindelwald, because of too much consideration, a large number of plot designs went into a dead end, which destroyed the integrity of the narrative logic of the film. Because too many new characters are added, and there is not enough time to lay out the growth curve of the characters, both new and old characters tend to be instrumental. But finally left a fairly satisfactory plot hook at the end of the story.It left the audience with the expectation that the villain camp was about to make a big event.

Disappointingly, whether as a single film work or as a connecting link in the series, Fantastic Animals 3: The Mystery of Dumbledore is hardly qualified. First of all, as the focus of the last film, the villain Grindelwald’s "plan to seize power" and the fateful battle between Dumbledore and Grindelwald were all handled very hastily, giving people a feeling of "getting things done as soon as possible". Secondly, the behavioral motives of the characters are unclear, and the roles are collectively degraded. As the most important "magical animal" in the film, although it can be seen that the director tries to let them play the role of promoting the main plot, it actually makes the magical animal role more instrumental and even makes it a dispensable existence.

Although we don’t know the whole picture of the creative process of Fantastic Animals 3, judging from the state presented by the film, all stakeholders are not in a state of joint efforts, but in a state of mutual game. Fantastic Animals 3 is the greatest common denominator after this game, taking care of all aspects, but in the end no one is satisfied.

Before and after the release of Fantastic Animals 3, there were rumors that Warner Pictures intentionally suspended the production of this series after the management adjustment. In fact, whether it’s to finish this series, or to start a new business, as long as there are enough loyal fans in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, the legend of the Wizarding World will continue. In short, as long as the capital never sleeps, the "story" can always go on.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and there are more and more annoying mosquitoes. Many friends who keep cats and dogs have the same confusion and trouble: will mosquito repellent products drive away their cats and dogs? What mosquito repellent products are safest for them?

Mosquito-repellent incense and electric mosquito-repellent incense: dogs can’t be cats.

Mosquito-repellent incense and electric mosquito-repellent incense are most commonly used at home, and the active ingredients of both are pyrethroids, such as permethrin, cypermethrin and deltamethrin. Its principle of killing mosquitoes is to affect the nervous system of mosquitoes. First, it induces mosquitoes to be excited, and then its nerve conduction is blocked, leading to paralysis and death.

Pyrethroids have low toxicity to humans, are difficult to be absorbed by human skin, are easily metabolized by the liver, and have low toxicity to dogs.

However, this component is highly toxic to fish, amphibians and reptiles, and it is also very toxic to cats. Cat’s liver can’t metabolize pyrethroids. If mosquito-repellent incense is lit and cats are kept in a closed environment at the same time, it may lead to cat poisoning, fever, epilepsy, ataxia and other symptoms, and may even cause cat death.

Does it mean that a cat can’t light mosquito-repellent incense? In fact, it is still possible to use the right method. You can close the doors and windows of the room first, then use mosquito-repellent incense or electric mosquito-repellent incense to repel mosquitoes, then open the doors and screens for ventilation, and let the cat in after the smell is completely dispersed, which is relatively safe.

In addition, mosquito-repellent incense has the risk of burns to cats and dogs. Bottom map: pixabay

Mosquito repellent: discuss separately

There are many kinds of mosquito repellent products on the market, and the effective components with mosquito repellent effect approved by the World Health Organization, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the US Environmental Protection Agency are as follows:

DEET (/diethyltoluamide, abbreviated as Deet)

Picaridin/Icaridin

Mosquito repellent ester (IR3535)

Lemon eucalyptus oil (OLE)

P-menthane diol (PMD)

2- undecanone

These six ingredients are different in nature and characteristics, so let’s talk about them one by one.

DEET: It should be all right.

DEET, also known as DEET, DEET and DEET, is the most widely used component of mosquito repellent liquid and the most recommended component of mosquito repellent liquid for children by American Academy of Pediatrics. So I have to say more about it.

DEET does not poison mosquitoes, but works by blocking the function of odor receptor of olfactory protein of mosquitoes. Simply put, it is to make mosquitoes unable to smell people and find people.

The mosquito repellent liquid containing DEET in the supermarket usually contains about 7% to 10% DEET. The concentration mainly affects the action time. The concentration of 7% can last for about 2 hours, and the concentration of 30% can last for 6 hours. But the higher the concentration, the better.

DEET is corrosive: high concentration of DEET can dissolve plastic, nylon, chemical fiber, leather and nail polish, etc., and the smell is not very good, and it is sticky. Therefore, as long as we spray it once every once in a while, even 7% mosquito repellent can have a good effect.

So how toxic is DEET to cats and dogs? The toxicological report of DEET issued by the United States Environment Agency shows that exposure to 9% DEET spray for cats and dogs will cause symptoms of depression, irritability, excessive salivation, ataxia, seizures and muscle tremor. Among them, dogs have higher tolerance to DEET than cats.

Higher concentrations of DEET mosquito repellent are more likely to cause poisoning in cats and dogs, mainly because they like to lick and bite, which is easy to be taken by mistake. However, in the guidance issued by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the US Environment Agency, it is also mentioned that DEET can be used to repel mosquitoes for good friends of humans such as cats, dogs and horses. A small amount of exposure to low concentrations of DEET may not be a big problem.

Patrick Redding: I don’t know.

Picaridin is currently considered as the most effective mosquito repellent besides DEET. When it was first declared, its name was Picaridin, and it became Icaridin after it was approved. So, whether it’s Patrick Redding or Ekredding, it’s one thing.

Pekaridin’s mosquito repellent principle is to interfere with mosquitoes’ receptors, so that they can’t judge the position of people. Compared with DEET, Pekaridin has more advantages: no odor, no irritation, no stickiness, no corrosion to plastic nylon, and less irritation to eyes and mouth; Disadvantages are that it is more expensive and not as easy to buy as DEET.

It may also have something to do with the difficulty in getting it. Peccaridine has little toxicological research on cats and dogs, and no cases of cat and dog poisoning have been found so far.

Most of the mosquito repellent solutions we can buy contain deet and pekaretin. Products containing the remaining mosquito repellent ingredients are more difficult to buy, and there is not much discussion value.

Unreliable mosquito repellent products: forget it

"Pure Plant" Products: Different opinions.

The above-mentioned DEET mosquito repellent liquid is a very safe and effective product. Ironically, many merchants specially marked it when launching mosquito repellent products: it does not contain DEET. The products launched by these merchants often claim to be natural insect repellent ingredients, such as citronella, geranium, clove, mint, eucalyptus essential oil and so on.

In fact, there is no conclusive evidence whether these ingredients can repel mosquitoes or even harm cats and dogs. If you think "no evidence" means safety, use it; Think that "no evidence" means unsafe, then choose other mosquito repellent products.

Mosquito killer: It’s useless.

Mosquito killer claims to use phototaxis to kill mosquitoes, but many mosquitoes don’t like light at all, and the effect is very limited. In addition, if you look directly at ultraviolet light for a long time, it will do harm to people’s eyesight.

At present, some mosquito killer are said to produce carbon dioxide and smell similar to that of human body to attract mosquitoes, but it is hard to say whether this lamp can attract mosquitoes when there are living people.

In a word, although these things are harmless to cats and dogs, it is not recommended that you buy such products, which really have no mosquito repellent effect.

Mosquito repellent stickers and mosquito repellent bracelets: useless.

Mosquito repellent stickers, mosquito repellent bracelets and hand straps are also not good mosquito repellent products.

In August 2018, the staff of Beijing Consumers Association randomly purchased 50 nominally pure plant mosquito repellent products from mother-baby stores, pharmacies, outdoor stores and online channels, involving domestic and some imported mosquito repellent stickers, mosquito repellent bracelets, mosquito repellent buckles, etc.; Beijing No.1 Station for Quality Supervision and Inspection of Light Industrial Products was entrusted to test the contents of effective components in the samples. The results show that all the samples have poor mosquito repellent effect, and the actual use effect is seriously inconsistent with its product promotion. Therefore, mosquito repellent stickers and mosquito repellent bracelets are ok for cats and dogs, but not for you.

In a word, physical mosquito prevention: the most traditional mosquito nets and the electric mosquito swatter are safe and reliable for you and cats and dogs.

Finally, I would like to remind you that mosquitoes at home are mainly related to stagnant water. Check regularly whether there is stagnant water under the refrigerator, flower pots and windowsills at home. Mosquitoes can’t live without water in their infancy. Clearing the stagnant water will also clear the growing environment of mosquitoes, which can reduce the chances of mosquitoes breeding at home from the source.
