Abstract: Since the implementation of the 'grain to feed' policy, the dairy industry has been revitalized through the adjustment of agricultural structure. However, since the global spread of novel coronavirus pneumonia outbreak, food safety has entered the public view again, and thus raised an issue worth thinking deeply: how to realize the forage-livestock balance, increase the market supply of meat, eggs and milk, as well as optimize the dietary and nutrition structure of residents under the premise of ensuring food security. Therefore, taking Hebei Province as the research object, an in-depth analysis on the grain, forage planting as well as market supply and demand were carried out. At present, the grain planting area in Hebei Province is above the 'red line', and forage production cannot meet the needs of the province's animal breeding industry. At the same time, the intake of meat, eggs, and milk by urban and rural residents still does not meet the dietary nutrition standards. In order to optimize the agricultural planting structure and the nutritional structure of residents, this study proposes a series of measures such as promoting new planting models, strengthening policy guidance, and innovate production technologies to propel the development of grain-feed balance in Hebei Province.

Key words: food security, forage planting, grain-feed balance, agricultural structure adjustment
