【“十四五”高质量发展答卷】我国建成世界上规模最大水利基础设施体系

Core Viewpoint - During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, China has made significant progress in water conservancy development, with a focus on infrastructure investment and resource allocation. Group 1: Investment in Water Conservancy - The investment in water conservancy construction reached over 1 trillion yuan for the first time in 2022, marking a historical record for three consecutive years, with an expected total investment of 13,529 billion yuan in 2024, and over 54,000 billion yuan during the "14th Five-Year Plan," which is 1.6 times that of the "13th Five-Year Plan" [3]. Group 2: Water Resource Allocation - The formation of a water resource allocation pattern of "south-north transfer and east-west mutual assistance" has accelerated, with an expected national water network coverage rate of 80.3% by the end of this year, and a key river and lake ecological flow compliance rate of 98.6% [5]. Group 3: Irrigation and Efficiency - In the past five years, 1,959 large and medium-sized irrigation areas have undergone modernization, with over 200 million mu of irrigation area newly restored and improved. The irrigation water efficiency has improved year by year, maintaining a grain productivity of over 3.6 pounds per unit of irrigation water, highlighting the crucial role of irrigation areas in grain production [5].
