BEIJING -- Vice Premier Wang Yang on Tuesday stressed the efficient use of agricultural funds allocated to disadvantaged rural counties.

Streamlining allocation of agricultural funds to impoverished counties is a key move to fight poverty, Wang said.

More should be given to impoverished counties, which should map out scientific programs to rid themselves from poverty, he noted.

China still has 70 million people living below the poverty line, according to official figures.
