China has seen a bumper harvest this year, with grain output up 0.9 percent year on year, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said on Thursday.
China s grain output reached nearly 670 billion kg in 2020, up 5.65 billion kg from last year.
This marks the sixth consecutive year that the country s total grain production has exceeded 650 billion kg.
The bumper harvest comes despite disrupted farming as a result of the COVID-19 epidemic, which has been held in check thanks to efforts to ensure the transportation of agricultural materials and strengthen farming management.
