To achieve Chinese-style modernization, we must accelerate the comprehensive revitalization of rural areas. At present, agriculture has once again yielded bumper harvests, and rural areas remain harmonious and stable. Meanwhile, the international environment is complex and severe, and China faces an increasing number of uncertain and unpredictable factors in its development. The more we confront risks and challenges, the more crucial it becomes to consolidate the foundation of “agriculture, rural areas, and farmers” work. To do well in “agriculture, rural areas, and farmers” work for 2025 and the period ahead, we must adhere to Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era as our guiding principle, fully implement the spirit of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China and the Second and Third Plenary Sessions of the 20th Central Committee, thoroughly carry out General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important discourses and instructions on “agriculture, rural areas, and farmers” work, uphold and strengthen the Party’s overall leadership over this work, fully, accurately, and comprehensively implement the new development philosophy, stick to the general tone of seeking progress while maintaining stability, prioritize the development of agriculture and rural areas, promote integrated urban-rural development, stay true to our core principles while fostering innovation, and firmly aim at advancing the comprehensive revitalization of rural areas and building a strong agricultural country. Driven by reform and opening-up and scientific and technological innovation, we must consolidate and improve the basic rural operating system, deeply learn from and apply the experience of the “Ten Million Project,” ensure national food security, prevent large-scale relapse into poverty, enhance the level of rural industrial development, rural construction, and rural governance, and make every possible effort to boost agricultural efficiency, invigorate rural areas, and increase farmers’ incomes—thus providing solid foundational support for advancing Chinese-style modernization.

We need to maintain historical patience, do our best within our capabilities, concentrate our efforts on accomplishing a number of key practical tasks that are tangible and beneficial to farmers, and ensure that the benefits are truly felt and accessible to the rural population. We must fully implement the “Four Approaches to the Grassroots” system, follow the Party’s mass line in the new era, and strengthen the bonds between the Party and the masses as well as between cadres and the masses. We must adhere to starting from the realities of rural areas, fully respect farmers’ wishes, improve working methods, and prevent oversimplification and “one-size-fits-all” approaches in policy implementation. We should encourage localities to engage in practice, exploration, and reform and innovation, fully mobilize the enthusiasm of Party members, cadres, and the broad masses of farmers, and unleash the dynamism and vitality needed for all-round rural revitalization.

Let us unite even more closely around the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core, remain firmly confident, overcome difficulties with determination, pursue practical and effective action, and work persistently and steadily to accelerate the pace of agricultural and rural modernization. We will strengthen the foundations of agriculture, foster greater prosperity in rural areas, and improve the livelihoods of farmers, thus making solid progress toward the goal of building a strong agricultural nation.
