In accordance with the principle of "government-led, pilot first, according to local conditions, highlighting the key", steadily promote the nutritional improvement program for rural compulsory education students, and constantly improve the nutritional health of rural students.
1. Start the national pilot program. From the fall semester of 2011, in the concentrated contiguous areas of special difficulties (hereinafter referred to as contiguous areas of special difficulties) to start the rural (excluding counties, hereinafter the same) nutritional improvement plan for rural students in compulsory education pilot work. The specific scope of the contiguous special hardship areas is determined in accordance with the "China Rural Poverty Alleviation and Development Program (2011-2020)" and relevant documents.
The pilot program includes the following: the central government will provide nutritional meal subsidies for students in rural compulsory education in the pilot areas, at the rate of 3 yuan per student per day (calculated on the basis of 200 days of schooling for the entire year), with all the funds required being borne by the central government. Pilot areas and schools should actively explore nutritional recipes, raw material supply, feeding modes, food safety, supervision systems and other aspects, and accumulate experience in steadily promoting the Nutrition Improvement Program for Rural Compulsory Education Students. The pilot work is coordinated by the people's governments at the provincial level, and the people's governments at the municipal and county levels are specifically organized and implemented. Provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government to determine the actual situation of pilot counties (cities) and sub-counties (cities) to develop a pilot work program, reported to the Ministry of Education, Ministry of Finance for the record and then implemented.
2, support local pilot. Outside of the contiguous areas of special hardship, localities should focus on poverty-stricken areas, ethnic areas, border areas, old revolutionary areas, etc., to carry out nutritional improvement pilot work according to local conditions, and gradually improve the nutritional health of rural students from economically disadvantaged families. The central government will provide incentive subsidies to provinces that have done a good job and achieved certain results.
3. Improvement of dining conditions. All localities should coordinate the long-term mechanism for repair and renovation of rural primary and secondary school buildings and the central and western rural junior high school building renovation project funds, the student cafeteria as a key construction content, so that it meets the standards and requirements of the catering service license. The central financial authorities in the weak rural compulsory education school renovation plan to specifically arrange for canteen construction funds, rural schools in the central and western regions to improve the dining conditions of subsidies, and to the national pilot areas with an appropriate tilt.

The Institute of Geographic Sciences and Resources of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IGSR) has recently published the "Chinese The Urban Catering Food Waste Report" shows that the total amount of urban catering waste is staggering, while the food waste of primary and secondary school students is significantly higher than the average level of urban catering waste. The per capita waste of student nutritional meals is 216 grams, about one-third of the supply.
Dr. Wang Lingen of the Institute of Geography, Chinese Academy of Sciences, analyzed that students' low satisfaction with campus dining and the lack of good eating habits and food education are the main reasons for food waste.
During their research, they found the phenomenon that many primary and secondary school students would rather go out of school to eat takeaways, kebabs and other strong-flavored foods, despite the fact that campus nutritious meals are well-matched and convenient. The survey showed that more than half of the students preferred to eat outside the school. 38% of the students chose popular restaurants, 27% chose Western fast food restaurants and 17% chose Chinese fast food restaurants.
Why the need to travel far and near? Wang Lingen said, "do not like to eat" may be the main reason. In the campus dining satisfaction survey, only 14% of students are satisfied with the campus dining, 53% of students think that the taste and quality of the dining needs to be improved, 33% of students even fill in the "unsatisfactory".
Wang Dongyang, a researcher at the Institute of Food and Nutritional Development of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, said that, on the one hand, the catering industry can provide accurate and customized nutritional meals for students according to individual physical needs; on the other hand, it is necessary to cultivate the scientific dietary concepts of primary and secondary school students, and to reduce the waste of meals on campus by focusing on both supply and demand.
