3月5日上午，十三屆全國人大會四次會議首場“部長通道”在人民大會堂開啟。農業農村部部長唐仁健回答記者提問。

唐仁健表示：

"As China has succeeded in poverty eradication after eight years' efforts, infrastructure in rural areas has improved a lot. But many of the achievements have only reached village level, and there are still shortfalls in the work regarding each household," Tang said.
我們經過八年的努力，脫貧攻堅已經完成，農村的基礎設施和社會面貌變化很大。但是目前，農村基礎設施很多只是到了行政村，村以下到戶還有很多卡點和堵點，短板、弱項主要在這塊。

County-level spatial planning should be accomplished this year, and practical village planning will be the next step to meet farmers' needs, he said.
今年縣一級的國土空間規劃要基本編制完成，完成以后，要在此基礎上編制“多規合一”的實用性村莊規劃。之所以強調實用性，就是要照顧農村的特點和農民的需要。

"We will extend better infrastructure, in terms of water, electricity, roads, gas and housing, to each village and household," he added.
建好硬件。硬件主要是水電路氣訊，這方面以前也在搞，往后我們主要倡導和推動向村去覆蓋、向戶去延伸。

The main roads in villages have to be built to facilitate farming life and production, and further boost local businesses and tourism. Local governments will improve storage facilities and cold chain logistics to help open up the circulation of agriculture products, Tang said.
通村的道路、村里面的主干道，還有連接周邊那些基地的資源路、產業路、旅游路。還要建設倉儲設施和冷鏈物流，解決好農產品上行和工業品下行的問題。

Meanwhile, public services such as access to education, health care, and elderly care will be further enhanced in villages, he added.
社會服務這幾年變化非常大，今后要繼續提升，力求讓農村的上學條件、醫療條件、養老條件更好一點。
