Features: China is an agricultural country where the people come first, and food is the top priority. With nearly 800 million people living in rural areas, the quality of the rural and agricultural environment directly impacts the safety of agricultural products, including grain. The effectiveness of environmental protection efforts in rural areas is directly linked to the overall success of China's environmental protection work. Therefore, improving the environmental knowledge of grassroots cadres in rural areas is one of the key priorities for environmental protection in the coming years. Under the support of the Science Popularization Special Fund of the China Association for Science and Technology, the National Environmental Protection Administration's Department of Natural Ecological Protection and the Chinese Society for Environmental Science organized experts and scholars to compile this book. The book is tailored to the actual situation of grassroots cadres in rural areas and is written in an accessible manner. It introduces the concept of environmental protection, the development and sustainable utilization of natural resources, how to carry out rural environmental protection, and how to strengthen agricultural environmental protection. It also covers the basic knowledge of ecological agriculture and organic agriculture, as well as the content of building ecological demonstration areas and creating environmentally friendly towns. This book is suitable for grassroots cadres in rural areas to study and read during their work, and it can also serve as a textbook or reference book for environmental protection courses in rural secondary vocational schools and technical schools.
