Abstract: Some issues of Chinese wheat production were discussed in the paper. Wheat is the staple food crop in China, is taken as the research object. Wheat production has made great progress in recent year, the yield level, total output have been developed by leaps and bounds. However, with the level of wheat yields raising, the over-reliance on chemical fertilizer was formed, during Chinese wheat production process. At the same time, the valuable crop stalks not only turned into the agricultural waste, but also became the nonpoint source pollution. The chemical fertilizers was irrational use, leading to eutrophication and nitrate pollution of water body, and bringing pollution and damage to the environment, and led to the destruction of soil structure and soil acidification. The groundwater resources were over-exploitation, the groundwater levels were declined. The Chinese wheat production was severely restricted by these problems. Some countermeasures were proposed in this paper, in order to promote the sustainable development of Chinese wheat production.
