CCTV-7 (Chinese: 中国中央电视台国防军事频道, China Central Television Defense and Military Channel), is a Chinese free-to-air television channel owned by China Central Television. The channel primarily carries programming devoted to the People's Liberation Army. Prior to 1 August 2019, the channel also carried agriculture-related programmes. On 1 August 2019 (coinciding with the anniversary of the Army's establishment), the channel dropped its agriculture programmes, which moved to the new CCTV-17 channel from 23 September. CCTV-7 also have aired children's television series, both animated and non-animated until it was moved to CCTV-14 in 2003.[1]
