On June 6, the Information Office of the State Council held a press conference to introduce the five-year action to improve the rural living environment. Liu Huanxin, deputy director of the central agricultural office, member of the Party group of the Ministry of agriculture and rural areas and director of the National Bureau of rural revitalization, said that by the end of 2020, the objectives and tasks of the three-year action plan for the improvement of rural human settlements had been fully completed, and the rural human settlements had been significantly improved. Liu Huanxin said that improving the rural living environment is related to the well-being of farmers, the health of farmers and the construction of a beautiful China. Since 2018, all localities and departments have thoroughly implemented the decisions and arrangements of the CPC Central Committee and the State Council, earnestly implemented the three-year action plan for the improvement of rural human settlements, and achieved important phased results in many aspects. Liu Huanxin said that the rectification work was fully promoted and the objectives and tasks were fully completed. Since 2018, more than 40 million rural household toilets have been renovated. By the end of 2020, the penetration rate of rural sanitary toilets in China has reached more than 68%, which is expected to exceed 70% this year. The proportion of natural villages that collect, transport and treat rural domestic waste has remained stable at more than 90%, and the treatment rate of rural domestic sewage has reached 25.5%. The dirty, disorderly and poor situation in rural areas has been reversed, and the quality of life of farmers has generally improved. More than 95% of villages across the country have carried out cleaning actions, and the rural areas have changed from generally dirty and messy to basically clean, tidy and orderly; The rural living infrastructure has been greatly improved, and 100% of the qualified townships and organic villages in China have access to hardened roads and 100% to buses; Based on reality, each region has built more than 50000 beautiful and livable villages of different types. Farmers' concept of environmental sanitation has been significantly improved, and their enthusiasm to participate in remediation has gradually increased. Through policy publicity, training and publicity, farmers realize that the improvement of rural living environment can not only improve the village environment, but also promote health. In particular, all localities have reduced the risk of epidemic disease transmission through village cleaning, toilet transformation and domestic sewage and garbage treatment. Liu Huanxin said that at the same time, we should also see that compared with the requirements for the comprehensive revitalization of rural areas and the improvement of farmers' quality of life, there are still problems such as unbalanced regional progress, inadequate technical support, insufficient farmers' participation and imperfect long-term mechanism. During the 14th Five Year Plan period, we will adhere to the problem orientation, improve policies and mechanisms, further improve the governance level of rural human settlements, and do good things and practical things.
