Chinese farmers have recently been busy reaping crops by using harvesters or through traditional methods.

The per unit yield of corn, rice and soybeans in major grain-producing areas in the country has also increased, and China is expected to have another bumper autumn harvest this year.

The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has set up a phone line to provide various services related to the autumn harvest.
