经党中央批准、国务院批复,自2018年起我国将每年农历秋分设立为“中国农民丰收节”(Chinese Farmers' Harvest Festival),这是第一个专为农民设立的节日。
为何将“中国农民丰收节”设在秋分
从节气上看,春种秋收,春华秋实,秋分时节硕果累累,最能体现丰收(it's the best time to celebrate the harvest)。
从区域上看,我国地域辽阔、物产丰富,各地收获的时节有所不同,但多数地方都在秋季(although climates and crops differ in various parts of China, most crops mature in autumn),秋收作物是大头。
从民俗上看,我们国家有十几个少数民族有庆祝丰收的传统节日(ethnic groups in China have their own festivals at harvest time),大多都在下半年。在国家层面设立一个各民族共同参与、共庆丰收的节日,有利于促进中华民族大家庭的和睦团结和发展(to enhance harmony and development of the Chinese nation)。
今年秋粮丰收的基本面仍然较好
Figures from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs showed the autumn grain growing area is about 86 million hectares this year and is bracing for a bumper harvest.
农业农村部的数据显示,今年我国秋粮种植面积约为8600万公顷,将迎来丰收。
To ensure a bumper harvest, the central government allocated 20 billion yuan in subsidies to farmers amid a hike in the prices of seeds and fertilizers in spring.
为确保粮食丰收,中央政府划拨200亿元农业补贴帮助农民应对春季化肥和种子价格上涨。
Central and local authorities also spent 3 billion yuan on the control of wheat pests and diseases to secure grain production and managed to cap the damage rate below 5 percent.
中央和地方政府还划拨30亿元用于农作物病虫害防治,以保证粮食生产,并将农作物毁损率控制在5%以下。
In recent years, central authorities have also been ramping up construction of "high-standard farmland" for large mechanical farming.
近年来,中央政府部门还大力推进高标准农田建设,用于大规模机械化耕种。

Such grain growing areas had reached 53.3 million hectares as of last year and will surpass 80 million hectares by 2030. They will increase yields by 10 to 20 percent and cut costs by 7,500 yuan a hectare.
去年,高标准农田种植面积已经达到5330万公顷,到2030年将超过8000万公顷。此类农田每公顷产量将增加10%到20%、成本下降7500元。
