CCTV-17 (Chinese: 中国中央电视台农业农村频道, China Central Television Agriculture and Village Channel), is a Chinese free-to-air television channel, owned by China Central Television. It handles the agricultural programmes moved from CCTV-7 after the revamp of the latter channel.[1] This is a state-run TV channel. As such, it has been criticized for its connection to the Chinese Communist Party.

Trial broadcasts of the channel commenced on 1 August 2019, with a launch date of 23 September,[2] as part of celebrations for the Chinese Farmers' Harvest Festival.[3]
