This paper examines the current state of grain production in main grain-consuming areas in China starting from the background of food security and regional differences in grain production and consumption in China. It points out that expanding grain production in these areas has significance in maintaining regional fairness, ensuring food supply security, and fulfilling international responsibilities. Based on the research, taking Zhejiang as an example, the article analyses the significance and countermeasures of expanding grain production in the main grain-consuming areas, and proposes policy recommendations such as reducing the occupation of high-quality cultivated land, supporting the development of mountainous urban areas, increasing high-quality cultivated land through ecological reclamation, driving grain production through technological progress, and cultivating new types of professional farmers, in the hope of helping improve food security issues in China.
