El Tribunal Supremo Popular y la Fiscalía Suprema Popular de China han emitido conjuntamente una interpretación judicial de 21 artículos para fortalecer la protección de las tierras de cultivo y garantizar la seguridad alimentaria.

La interpretación entró en vigor el lunes y prohíbe explícitamente actos como la construcción de estructuras o tumbas en tierras de cultivo, la extracción de arena, la explotación de canteras o la minería. Los tribunales deben anular los contratos relacionados. Los fiscales pueden iniciar litigios de interés público si la ocupación ilegal causa contaminación ambiental o daños ecológicos. Se aplicarán sanciones más severas por delitos graves, incluida la negativa a rectificar tras recibir órdenes o la resistencia violenta. Geng Baojian, miembro del comité judicial del Tribunal Supremo Popular, señaló que las tierras de cultivo son la columna vertebral de la producción alimentaria. Entre 2020 y 2025, los tribunales de todo el país concluyeron cerca de 240.000 casos administrativos, alrededor de 400.000 casos civiles y más de 45.000 casos penales. Yu Shuangbiao, subdirector de la oficina de investigación de políticas legales de la Fiscalía Suprema Popular, señaló que la interpretación implementa el Código Ecológico y Ambiental adoptado en marzo y fortalece la colaboración con el Ministerio de Agricultura y Asuntos Rurales y el Ministerio de Recursos Naturales.
