JINAN, Sept. 18 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Vice Premier Hui Liangyu has called on authorities to give more support to the country's major grain production areas so to ensure grain supply and security.Hui made the comments while attending a grain production seminar held in Yantai City of east China's Shandong Province on Friday and Saturday.The vice premier demanded efforts be undertaken to promote agricultural production in the country's major grain production areas, which he said were of great importance to China's agricultural development.Hui urged authorities to offer financial assistance to these areas and ensure the continuous increase of farmers' incomes.China was facing and would be confronted by increasing challenges in grain production, such as the challenge to meet market demand for agricultural products and ensure quality, Hui said.To address these challenges, he said China must improve support to farmers to increase their enthusiasm for growing grain.Efforts should also go to improving production capacity in the agriculture sector, promoting agricultural technology progress and accelerating agricultural reform, the vice premier said.During the rest of the year, relative authorities should focus on improving agricultural production management and disaster prevention to guarantee a bumper autumn grain harvest, as well as ensuring market supplies and price stabilization of commodities such as vegetable, meat, grain and edible oil, he said.

BEIJING, Oct. 12 (Xinhua) -- The Chinese government Tuesday announced financial assistance for herders in west China, to reward their efforts in conserving grasslands and to compensate them for losses.From next year, the policy will be applied in eight provincial-level regions including Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, Tibet, Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, Ningxia and Yunnan, said a circular issued Tuesday after a State Council executive meeting presided over by Premier Wen Jiabao.The government will give 90 yuan (about 13 U.S. dollars) per hectare of grassland annually to herders living in the regions where the grasslands are severely damaged and herding has been banned, the document said.Outside of these herding-banned regions, residents will receive 22.5 yuan (3 dollars) per hectare every year if they keep a herd of sustainable size, the document said.The government will also provide 150 yuan per hectare for farmers to grow grass of better quality.In addition, each of about 2 million households of herders will receive 500 yuan per year as general assistance, the document said.More money will also be spent on education and training of herders, the document added."Due to excessive herding and low investment in grassland conservation, the area of grasslands in China has shrank dramatically and the environment there has deteriorated. However, local herders lack new ways to make a living," the document said.The policy is an effort to conserve the natural environment while improving the livelihood of locals, it said.The central government will allocate 13.4 billion yuan every year for the policies, according to the document.

TIANJIN, Sept. 5 (Xinhua) -- Executives from China's auto makers Sunday rejected an official warning that unchecked growth in the industry was leading to excess capacity and could harm the wider economy.Chen Bin, an official with the National Development and Reform Commission, China's top economic planner, Saturday said excess auto capacity threatened sustainable economic development and must be "resolutely" stopped.But industry representatives and the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM) Sunday argued car makers were only trying to meet expected demand in the world's largest auto market.Dongfeng Automobile, a major Chinese auto manufacturer, had been running in top gear since last year, said Fan Zhong, a senior manager. "Our problem is not having enough capacity."Most entrepreneurs at the International Forum on Chinese Automobile Industry Development in Tianjin had similar views.Ford China was focusing on expanding capacity as demand kept rising, said CEO Robert Graziano.The overall capacity of China's auto industry might seem excessive, but the market had huge potential for restructuring and growth, said Hu Xinmin, honorary chairman of the CAAM.

BEIJING, Oct. 7 (Xinhua) -- China's water resources imbalances between the north and south may worsen due to global climate changes and economic activities, said Vice Minister of Water Resources Hu Siyi.Typically, China's north is dry while its south has abundant water supplies.China will face unprecedented challenges in saving water in the next five-year plan from 2011 to 2015, said Hu at a national water-saving meeting in Zhengzhou, capital of central China's Henan Province, late September.Compared with the 1956-1979 period, rainfall in the Yellow River, Huaihe River, Haihe River and Liaohe River vallies in the 1980-2000 period had dropped six percent on average and river and lake water resources decreased 17 percent in these areas, according to figures from the Ministry of Water Resources.China's accelerated urbanization has pushed up demand for water.If the population in Beijing keeps on climbing, the water brought by the near completed South-to-North Water Diversion Project would not be enough, Hu said.China's water-saving targets during the 12th five-year plan from 2011 to 2015 include a 30-percent cut in water use for every 10,000 yuan (1,490 U.S. dollars) of gross industrial output, Hu said.

WUHAN, Sept. 6 (Xinhua) -- Chinese Vice Premier Li Keqiang on Monday urged medical authorities to increase prevention and control measures against schistosomiasis, as lingering rainfall and massive floods in the country's south have increased outbreaks of the disease.Priority should be given to upgrading the capacity of grass-roots level medical institutions in disease prevention and control, he said, adding medical authorities should distribute free medicine to prevent contracting the disease as well as treating patients as early as possible.He further said medical costs should be reduced or exempted for the poor and efforts should be made to raise people's awareness in disease prevention and control.Schistosomiasis, a wasting disease that causes blood loss and tissue damage, afflicted many Chinese before the 1960s due to widespread below-standard waste treatment in rural latrines, fishing boats and water.People who work or play in areas where the water contains freshwater snails are especially prone to be affected by the water-borne parasitic worm disease, commonly known as snail fever.
