In response to legislator Wang Hongwei's demand that Chen Jizhong step down to be responsible for the domestic egg shortage, Chen Jizhong said in an interview that he has always emphasized that as long as political officials fail to do a good job, they should be responsible for their own work performance.

Chen Jizhong said that he was born in a farming family, and his colleagues in the Council of Agriculture not only focus on eggs, but also include 200 to 300 agricultural products, and try their best to take care of farmers. The prices of all production areas should increase farmers' profits.

Chen Jizhong pointed out that the Council of Agriculture should protect all the rights of farmers, including farmers' health insurance, farmers' occupational accident insurance, farmers' retirement savings and agricultural insurance, and implement them one by one.

In addition, in the face of challenges such as climate change, Chen Jizhong said that everything must be done well, and all performance is due to the efforts of colleagues in the Council of Agriculture. However, if the dispatch of eggs cannot satisfy consumers in the short term, he will be responsible for all the responsibilities.

Chen Jizhong said that he will try his best to make up for the shortage of eggs as soon as possible according to the director's request, and promote the reconstruction of poultry houses to solve the problem of 30 to 40 years. If it is not good, of course I will be responsible.

Xu Zhijie helped Chen Jizhong to express that in response to the avian flu epidemic and the low temperature, the production of laying hens has been reduced. He believes that the Council of Agriculture has made considerable efforts to make up for the lack of work. However, we should make a lot of efforts to improve the areas. Be sure.
