Beijing, June 8:

China’s summer wheat harvest has crossed the 200 million mu mark, covering more than 13 million hectares of farmland and reaching nearly 59 percent of the nation’s harvesting target. The latest figures indicate steady progress in one of the country’s most important agricultural seasons.

Harvesting operations are moving at a rapid pace across key grain-producing regions, where farmers are using modern machinery to speed up field work and reduce crop losses. Local authorities have coordinated equipment and logistics support to ensure a smooth harvest.

Agricultural officials say overall crop conditions remain stable despite weather-related challenges in some areas. Measures have been put in place to protect grain quality and support farmers during the harvesting period.

The summer wheat harvest plays a vital role in China’s food supply chain and national food security efforts. With favorable conditions continuing in many regions, authorities expect the harvest campaign to maintain strong momentum in the coming weeks.
