Abstract

This paper analyzes the impact of industrialization on grain consumption from growth of residents’ income and change of diet structure, expansion of size of population, and development of new biomass energy industry. The economic growth in the course of industrialization promotes growth of residents’ income, changes residents’ diet structure; industrialization leads to rural urbanization and rise of urban residents; industrial development brings about grain demand of biomass energy. All of these greatly increase demand of grain consumption. On the basis of these situations, it presents following countermeasures to guarantee grain consumption demand in the course of industrialization: heighten awareness to fully realize the significance of rapid development of industrialization to grain security; control population growth and improve grain conversion ratio; strengthen grain-saving construction and advocate moderate consumption; develop non-grain biomass energy in many channels to guarantee grain security.
