2. Adjustment of the industrial structure was vigorously promoted, and weak sectors were strengthened. Within China's GDP, the added value of primary industry hit 2.0744 trillion yuan, an increase of 6.3 percent; that of secondary industry amounted to 7.2387 trillion yuan, a rise of 11.1 percent; and that of tertiary industry was 4.3384 trillion yuan, up 8.3 percent.

    Grain production took a significant turn for the better, and agricultural restructuring continued. Total acreage of grain production experienced a rebound after shrinking five years running, increasing about 2 percent to reach 101.61 million hectares. Grain output totaled 469.5 billion kilograms, up by 38.8 billion kilograms. Development of areas of industrialized production of superior quality farm products was strengthened and the proportion of superior varieties of grains, vegetables and fruits produced has risen. There was a bumper crop of cotton, and animal husbandry and aquaculture developed rapidly.

    Development of energy facilities and the transportation infrastructure was intensified. Work progressed smoothly on a number of major energy construction projects, such as the second pipeline for transmitting natural gas from Shaanxi to Beijing, thefirst phase of the Guangdong liquefied natural gas project, state petroleum reserve bases, upgrading of coalmines for production safety, large coalmines and rural power grids. Production capacityof coalmines increased by 120 million tons. Installed power-generating capacity increased by 50.55 million kilowatts. An additional 1,433 kilometers of railway tracks were laid. There were 46,000 kilometers of newly built highways opened to traffic, including 4,476 kilometers of expressways. The handling capacity of ports increased by 120 million tons. Work to upgrade or build new airports in Guangzhou, Chongqing and Qingdao was completed, and a number of feeder airports were built and put into operation.

    Upgrading of traditional industries was stepped up, and hi-techindustries grew rapidly. Differentiated fibers accounted for 28 percent of the fibers used for textiles, a year-on-year increase of 3 percentage points. New dry-process cement accounted for 32.5 percent of total cement output, up by 7.5 percentage points. Sheetand strip steel accounted for 33.7 percent of steel production, upby 1.6 percentage points. Total added value of large hi-tech enterprises rose by 23.1 percent, 6.4 percentage points more than the average for all large industrial enterprises. Hi-tech industries that can greatly stimulate economic development such asbiology, integrated circuits and software, are now emerging.
