Special supplement: Variety and yield to benefit farm fair

China's agricultural trade is expected to sustain continued growth as it takes measures to become 95 percent self-sufficient in grain consumption over the next 12 years.

Along with increased productivity, the China Agriculture Trade Fair (CATF), the nation's largest farm products show, will also enjoy a bright future, organizers said.

The State Council has agreed at an executive meeting to ensure grain output reaches 540 billion kg by 2020.
