大竹县人口逾百万,农业人口占95％以上,人均耕地不足一亩,至今仍属川东重旱灾区,自然灾害相对频繁,旱涝保收面积仅占1/3。但该县却提供了占全国1.8‰的商品粮,成为全国商品粮基地县。从1994年起,大竹县连续4年夺得粮食大丰收,4年间共计比1993年增产粮食12.13万吨。这真是一个了不起的成绩！ Dazhu County has a population of more than 1 million and agricultural population accounts for more than 95% with less than one mu of arable land per capita. It is still a heavy hitched area in eastern Sichuan Province with frequent natural disasters and only 1/3 of the area covered by drought and flood. However, the county provided 1.8% of the country’s commodity grain and became the national commodity grain base county. Since 1994, Dazhu County won four consecutive years of grain harvests, a total of 121,300 tons more grain than in 1993 over the past four years. This is really a remarkable result!
