The new requirements of entrepreneurship, study how to further play the role of agricultural enterprises in rural revitalization. Vice Minister of Agriculture Ye Yuqin attended the meeting and delivered a speech.

Ye Yuqin pointed out that innovation traits and market awareness are the special temperament of entrepreneurs and the core and soul of entrepreneurship. The long investment cycle, high risk and low return rate of the agricultural industry have determined that agricultural entrepreneurs must have the entrepreneurial spirit of being able to withstand loneliness and the deep feelings of “agriculture, rural areas and farmers”. This is the foundation for the cause of “agriculture, rural areas and farmers”. It is also a distinctive feature of agricultural entrepreneurs. Since the reform and opening up, a group of agricultural entrepreneurs have taken root in the countryside, based on agriculture, and are peasants. They have led the enterprise to develop and grow, while not forgetting the initial intention and returning to the society, and building the enterprise into a leading enterprise with market competitiveness and social responsibility. It has made significant contributions to ensuring the effective supply of agricultural products, promoting the transformation of agricultural development methods, and helping the agricultural industry to tackle poverty and tackling difficulties. It has become an important force in promoting the economic development of agriculture and rural areas.

Ye Yuqin emphasized that the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has made comprehensive arrangements for deepening supply-side structural reforms and implementing rural revitalization strategies, and has put forward new expectations, new tasks and new requirements for the development of agricultural enterprises. It is necessary to further play the key role of agricultural entrepreneurs, lead enterprises to become bigger and stronger, and become the new engine of modern agricultural development. It is necessary to further play a model role and promote the development of new technologies, new industries, new formats, and new models to the new agricultural business entities and small farmers, and become an incubator for rural innovation and entrepreneurship. It is necessary to further play a leading role in guiding farmers' cooperatives and family farms to participate in the construction of agricultural supply chains, and to promote the development of specialized, standardized and intensive production of farmers, and to achieve the organic connection between small farmers and modern agricultural development.

Ye said that the agricultural department will thoroughly implement the central government's deployment and requirements for promoting entrepreneurship, effectively change concepts, innovative ways, optimize services, and strive to improve a complete legal norm system and policy system, and further deepen the reform of "distribution services". We will implement various policies and measures to promote entrepreneurship and support the development of leading enterprises, and stimulate the endogenous driving force for enterprise development.
