The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs announced the overarching plans for the upcoming Ninth Chinese Farmers’ Harvest Festival during a news conference held this morning, according to official reports.
National Main Venue Events in Hubei Province
The organizing committee structured the upcoming festival around two primary operational levels, according to the morning briefing. Seventeen member units, including the Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and the Ministry of Education, are jointly participating to orchestrate 47 key events.
Officials characterized this operational structure with the shorthand “1+N.” The “1” designates the national main event, which will take place in Dongjiao Village, Zaoyang City, Xiangyang City, Hubei Province. Meanwhile, the “N” accounts for 46 distinct large-scale activities designed with farmers as the primary participants.

Extensive Grassroots Services and Regional Celebrations
Complementing the main venue, the “N” component encompasses a broad suite of public-interest initiatives organized by committee members. These include a national large-scale free clinic week, agricultural science popularization month main events, and a golden autumn consumption season.
At the local level, regional authorities will spearhead diverse celebrations tailored to farmers’ daily production and living needs.
