China to Upgrade Agriculture Facing WTO Challenges
China is upgrading its agriculture to meet challenges brought about by its accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO), Vice-Minister of Agriculture Zhang Baowen, said Thursday.

China's accession to the WTO has brought about both challenges and opportunities to the agricultural sector of the country, Zhang said, adding to take the opportunities and meet the challenges, the key is to improve the competitiveness of China's agriculture.

Zhang noted that his ministry has worked out six plans for agricultural development, covering production of quality grain, animal husbandry, horticulture, processing of farm produce, fishery and state farms, Zhang told a press conference of the on-going Fifth Session of the Ninth National Committee of the ChinesePeople's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC).
