China will further strengthen regulations on farm land protection, said an official of the Chinese Ministry of Natural Resources at a press conference on Wednesday.

A ministry spokesperson introduced a recently released document on strictly abiding by land regulations.

The document has ten specific regulations about land use, covering areas including the protection of cultivated land, further standardizing the balance of occupation and compensation of cultivated land, strictly abiding by the red line of ecological protection, and avoiding all kinds of illegal construction activities that destroy the ecological environment and violate the requirements of ecological protection.

Also, June 25 this year is the 33rd National Land Day in China, and the theme will focus on land conservation and the red line of farm land.

In addition, the statistical data on national mineral resource reserves in 2022 was released at the conference. According to the data, nearly 40 percent of the 163 identified mineral resource reserves have increased.
