What are the types of agricultural production?

1. Primary agricultural products

Primary agricultural products refer to planting, animal husbandry, fishery products, excluding processed such products. Primary agricultural products include grains, fats and oils, agricultural raw materials, livestock and products, forest products, fishery products, seafood, vegetables, fruits and flowers and other products.

2. Primary Processed Agricultural Products

Primary processed agricultural products are processed products that must go through certain processing stages before they can be consumed, used or stored, such as sterilized milk, split meat, frozen meat, edible oils and feeds.

3. Famous Agricultural Products

Famous agricultural products refer to those agricultural products that are produced on a large scale of production, with remarkable economic benefits, good quality, high market share, and have become the leading industry in the local rural economy, with brand names and clear logos, which are voluntarily applied for by the producers, and are initially examined by the relevant local departments, and recognized as such by authoritative institutions in accordance with the relevant regulations and procedures.

Product categories include grains and oils, vegetables, fruits and melons, livestock and poultry and their products, aquatic products, cotton and hemp, flowers, herbs, edible fungi, seeds, seedlings and so on. 4. Genetically modified agricultural products

Genetically modified agricultural products refers to the use of gene transfer technology, that is, the use of molecular biology means to transfer the genes of certain organisms to the genes of other organisms, and then cultivate agricultural products that people need.

Transgenic technology applied to agricultural production, can make the yield and quality of agricultural products to a revolutionary improvement, that is, the use of genetic engineering technology to transfer the genes of certain organisms to other species, can be transformed plant and animal genetic material, so that its traits, nutritional qualities, consumer quality and other aspects of the transformation of the human needs of the goal. It can reduce the cost of production and increase the resistance of organisms to pests and diseases; it can increase the yield per unit area; and it can make organisms more varied.

But people are worried about whether genetically modified agricultural products will affect the survival and safety of human beings: they are worried that the new ingredients appearing in genetically modified agricultural products will affect people's health; they are worried that genetically modified technology will jeopardize organisms other than human beings, such as insect-resistant cotton crops that are harmless to human beings but after the reduction of the boll weevil, will the organisms that rely on boll weevil to survive starve to death? If they starve to death, then the biological diversity will be destroyed; it is feared that transgenic animals and plants will affect the harmony of the ecological environment. For example, the introduction of herbicide-resistant genes into crops can make us feel more at ease with the use of herbicides, but if the herbicide-resistant genes are introduced into weeds, will they produce super weeds that can't be killed by any medicine?

Experts have long argued that genetically modified agricultural products do not adversely affect people's own health. Every GM agricultural product has to go through layers of stringent safety checks from testing to large-scale production, and can be used with confidence. China's Regulations on the Administration of Agricultural Genetically Modified Organism Safety, promulgated and implemented on May 23, 2001, stipulate that all genetically modified agricultural products must apply to the State Council's administrative department of agriculture for an agricultural genetically modified organism safety certificate before entering large-scale production. At the same time, in order to respect consumers' right to know and right to choose, China began implementing the Measures for the Administration of Agricultural Genetically Modified Organisms Labeling on March 20, 2002, which requires that genetically modified agricultural products and their processed products sold within the territory of the People's Republic of China*** and the State of China should be properly labeled.

Since the world's first batch of genetically modified crops were planted in large fields in 1996, the global acreage of genetically modified crops has increased 25-fold in just a few years, with developing countries growing even faster, and the acreage of genetically modified crops planted in the world in the year 2000 exceeded 44.2 million hectares.

The United States is the country that has adopted the most genetically modified (GM) technology, with more than 20.5 million hectares of GM crops in 1998. Of the area sown with GM seeds, soybeans, corn and cotton accounted for 70%, 22% and 45% respectively. Argentina is the second country to adopt GM technology in large numbers. As of today, 75% of Argentina's soybean sown area is under GM bean seed. Canada is a country with rapid development of transgenic agriculture. In addition, the countries in the world that have applied GM technology more frequently include Australia, Mexico, Spain, France, China and South Africa. In recent years, due to the consumer boycott of GM food in some countries, the planting area of GM crops in developed countries such as the United States has been reduced, but the global area and production are on the rise.

On the one hand, the Chinese government supports research on the application of genetically modified technology in agricultural production, especially research on the impact of genetically modified food on human health; on the other hand, it is cautious about the large-scale production of genetically modified agricultural products, and requires that genetically modified agricultural products be labeled when they are put on the market, so that consumers can make their own choices. At present, in North China, mainly in Hebei and Shanxi provinces to carry out research and promotion of genetically modified cotton has achieved significant results, of which the effect of anti-Cotton bollworm is notable. In central China, Hunan Province, the transgenic rice test research has made a major breakthrough, the level of yields increased significantly. At present, China has gained access to commercial production of transgenic agricultural products are mainly bollworm-resistant cotton, storage-resistant tomatoes, tomatoes and bell peppers resistant to mosaic virus, trans-floral color petunia flowers and so on.

5. Duty-free agricultural products

Duty-free agricultural products refer to the self-produced agricultural products of units and individuals directly engaged in the planting and harvesting of plants and the raising and fishing of animals.

The purchase price of tax-exempt agricultural products is limited to the price of the purchase voucher approved for use by the competent tax authorities. Purchase of agricultural products units in addition to the purchase price in accordance with the provisions of the payment of agricultural specialties tax, allowed to enter the purchase price of agricultural products to calculate input tax.

Now China has canceled the original special tax, some places also canceled the agricultural tax, the structural adjustment of China's agricultural industry and the development of high-efficiency agricultural products will have an immeasurable role in promoting.
