"Through the SCIO and media reports, we hope more people will be aware of our efforts, as well as show interest and support for grain production," said Bi Meijia, the MOA's chief economist and spokesman.
"This will boost the morale of our grain-growing farmers and we will be more confident about grain security," Bi said.
"We farmers can't grow crops without three magical tools: the support policies of government, technology and agricultural equipment," Yu said.
"Let us have a tenth consecutive year of grain output growth," he added.
