"We have to improve agricultural structure and management to make the sector's supply more responsive to the market and more productive," Han said, adding that the government will promote better and safer agricultural products, more cost-effective resource allocation and technological managerial innovation.
The government will continue to ensure zero growth of fertilizer use and work of a subsidy mechanism to encourage green agriculture.
Efforts will be made to develop technological solutions to agricultural productivity and to reform rural property rights, creating new entities in production and services.
Grain output dipped 0.8 percent in 2016, ending a 12-year rising streak, data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) showed.
The drop is a result of supply-side reform, as unbalanced supply and demand among grain varieties made many areas reduce corn planting in favor of soy and used the grain for feedstuff and oil, according to Huang Bingxin, a senior statistician with NBS.
Corn production will be further cut, and more high-quality dairy farms built. Specialty produce with local characteristics will be encouraged.
"Ensuring enough food for our people is the top priority for us," said Han, adding that China seeks no grain output increase, but will not allow big drops next year.
Three bottom lines of agricultural supply-side reform are no decline in grain production capacity, no change to the income growth trend for farmers, and no problems in rural stability, the statement said.
