中国不断加大在农业和粮食生产领域的援助力度。近年来，粮食安全问题成为国际社会高度关注的全球性问题。为此，中国采取了一系列对外援助举措。如，在2010年联合国千年发展目标高级别会议上，中国政府承诺在未来5年内为发展中国家建立30个农业技术示范中心、派遣3000名农业专家和技术人员，为发展中国家提供5000个来华农业培训名额等。

    截至2009年底，中国共帮助发展中国家建成221个农业援助项目，其中农场35个、农业技术实验站和推广站47个、牧业项目11个、渔业项目15个、农田水利工程47个、其他农业项目66个。此外，中国还提供了大量农机设备等农用物资。

China has been increasing its aid for agriculture and grain production in particular. In recent years, food security has become a global issue, and China has adopted a series of measures to address this problem in its foreign aid. For instance, at the UN High-Level Meeting on the Millennium Development Goals in 2010, China pledged to establish 30 demonstration centers for agricultural technologies in other developing countries, dispatch 3,000 agricultural experts and technicians to these countries, and invite 5,000 agricultural personnel from these countries to China for training.

By the end of 2009, China had aided 221 agricultural projects in other developing countries — 35 farms, 47 agro-technology experi-ment and promotion stations, 11 animal husbandry projects, 15 fisheries projects, 47 farmland irrigation and water-conservancy projects, and 66 other types of agricultural projects. On top of that, China had provided a large amount of agricultural equipment and materials to them.

    工业

    工业援助在中国对外援助初期占据重要地位。20世纪50年代至70年代，中国帮助许多刚独立的亚非国家建设了一批工业项目，奠定了受援国工业发展基础，不少项目填补了受援国民族工业的空白。工业援助在70年代发展较为迅速，一度成为中国成套项目援助的重要内容之一。从80年代中后期开始，许多发展中国家企业私有化进程加快，中国对这一领域的援助逐步减少。中国援建的工业项目对于促进受援国生产和经济发展，增加就业和税收，繁荣市场发挥了积极作用。截至2009年底，中国共帮助发展中国家建成688个工业生产性项目，涉及轻工、纺织、机械、化工、冶金、电子、建材、能源等多个行业。叙利亚哈马棉纺织厂、卢旺达水泥厂、秘鲁水泥厂、缅甸农机厂、刚果(布)水泥厂等一批项目一直保持盈利，并雇用大量当地员工，产生了良好的经济和社会效益。

Industry

Industrial aid was an important part of China’s foreign aid in its early stage. From the 1950s to the 1970s, China helped many new-ly-independent Asian and African countries undertake a number of industrial projects. These projects, many of them first ever of their kind in these countries, laid the foundation for their industrial development. Industrial aid increased rapidly in the 1970s, con-stituting an important part of China’s complete projects aid to other countries at that time. Since the mid-1980s, China gradually reduced its aid in this regard, as many developing countries stepped up privatization in the industrial sector. The industrial projects established with China’s help have played an active role in promoting production and economic development, creating jobs, increasing tax revenues and invigorating markets in the recipient countries. By the end of 2009, China had helped developing countries construct 688 industrial production projects, covering light, textile, machinery, chemical, metallurgical, electronic, construction materials, and energy industries. Of these, the Hama Textile Mill in Syria, the Cement Factory in Rwanda, the Rioja Cement Factory in Peru, the Agriculture Machinery Factory in Myanmar and the Loutété Cement Factory in the Republic of Congo are always profitable. They employ a large number of local people and yield sound economic and social benefits.
