China is a large agricultural country with a vast territory and uneven economic development. In the new stage of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects, improving the quality and safety management system for agricultural products, raising the quality and safety level of agricultural products, and increasing the international competitiveness of agricultural products is a central task of agricultural and rural economic development. To this end, with the approval of the State Council, the Ministry of Agriculture comprehensively launched the “Pollution-Free Food Action Plan” and established the development strategy of “integrating pollution-free food, green food, and organic food into one system and advancing them as a whole.” Therefore, organic food, green food, and pollution-free food are all organic components of the work on the quality and safety of agricultural products.文章源自FOFCC-http://fofcc.org.cn/am/11209/
