Liu Zhi, CNFIA's executive vice chairman, told the Seventh China Food Safety Annual Meeting held in Beijing on Saturday that the output value of the country's food industry was set to top 4.9 trillion yuan (US$717 billion) this year.
In the first five months of this year, the output of the domestic food industry was 1.82 trillion yuan, a rise of 14.6 percent over the same period last year.
