In animal husbandry and vet, further attention should be paid to cattle and fowl farming. In aquaculture, they were asked to continue tapping water surface in hydropower plants’ reservoirs, and raise fishes in cages on rivers and lakes. In forestry, they must continue planting forests, strive to plant more than 3,000ha of concentrated forests, and keep the forest coverage of over 51 percent. In particular, the provincial People’s Committee requested localities pay attention to irrigation and disaster prevention, strengthen the management of agricultural materials quality, and prevent the use of banned substances in production.
