>Early rice output up 2.7%
全國早稻總產(chǎn)量增長2.7%

China's early rice output saw a 2.7% increase this year as per unit yield improved, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) said Wednesday. The output reached 28.02 million tons, up 723,000 tons from 2020.
國家統(tǒng)計(jì)局8月25日發(fā)布數(shù)據(jù)顯示，2021年全國早稻總產(chǎn)量2802萬噸，比2020年增加72.3萬噸，增長2.7%。

Despite a slight decrease in cultivation area due to droughts in southern China and adjustment in crop structure, the per unit area yield of early rice increased 3% year on year, according to Li Suoqiang, an official from NBS. A bumper summer harvest and an increase in early rice production have laid a solid foundation for stable grain production for the year and provided strong support for a good start to the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025), Li said.
早稻單產(chǎn)水平有所增加。國家統(tǒng)計(jì)局官員李鎖強(qiáng)分析，由于我國南方部分地區(qū)天氣干旱影響早稻適時(shí)移栽，以及種植結(jié)構(gòu)調(diào)整減少早稻種植，早稻播種面積有所下降，但2021年全國早稻單產(chǎn)仍比上年增長3.0%。他表示，夏糧豐收和早稻增產(chǎn)奠定了全年糧食穩(wěn)定生產(chǎn)的基礎(chǔ)，為"十四五"開好局、起好步提供了堅(jiān)強(qiáng)有力的支撐。

日本厚生勞動(dòng)省表示，將與武田制藥合作，確保替代疫苗的供應(yīng)，以避免日本疫苗接種進(jìn)程中斷。
