The dilemma of grain production and marketing: a good fee of 500 yuan should be given to sell grain once.

Zhengzhou, November 12 (Xinhua) reporters continued to follow up interviews along Henan and other places and found that from the start of the purchase of summer grain to the concentrated listing of autumn grain, due to successive years of bumper harvests, sustained unilateral increases in market prices, and high state-owned stocks, the phenomenon of difficulty in selling grain began to rise, local queuing to sell grain normalized, and some purchase points even appeared the phenomenon of "going through the back door" to sell grain.

In the courtyard directly under the Central Reserve Grain Depot in Sichuan, all kinds of grain selling vehicles spread forward in a line. Not far away, people who had finished weighing were busy unloading grain. Along the rotating conveyor belt, golden rice slowly flowed into the warehouse.

A few days ago, Guo Ruimin, 51, looked inconspicuous in front of a farm tricycle in the queue. The farmer from Yuanbei Town, Huangchuan County, Henan Province, told reporters that for the first time after the harvest of middle and late rice this year, "the whole family has 12 mu of land, with an average yield of nearly 1,000 jin per mu, and the purchase price of grain traders is 1.18 yuan, which can be sold for more than 1.3 yuan here."

Unlike Guo Ruimin's concern about grain prices, Zhang Ming, deputy director of Huangchuan's warehouse, is more concerned about the current situation of storage capacity. He said that Huangchuan directly affiliated depots and entrusted depots under their jurisdiction stored a total of 2.64 million tons of grain and oil. although they were located in the rice area and did not participate in the purchase of summer grain, the empty warehouse was only more than 400,000 tons after stocktaking. "since the purchase of autumn grain support market was launched on October 1, more than 100,000 tons of rice have been purchased. According to the purchase volume of the support market in previous years, it is estimated that the shortfall in warehouse capacity may be 500000 tons."

The reporter saw that although the warehouse was small and old, the warehouse capacity of 15000 tons was full. On the gate of each warehouse, there is a "grain rights bulletin board" produced by the China Grain Storage Corporation. In neighboring Guangshan County, Guo Caiyuan, director of grain, also admitted that the total output of rice in the county is more than 600,000 tons, but the state-owned grain system has only more than 6000 tons, and the storage capacity purchased by the autumn grain market is very tight.

With the continuous increase of grain production, the warehouse capacity is tight at the same time, and the queue to sell grain becomes normal under the double squeeze.

The reporter noticed that with the increasing pressure of queuing to sell grain, there was even a phenomenon of "jumping in line to sell grain through the back door" in some warehouse sites with little warehouse capacity. Zhang Zhenhai, a grain broker from Fudian Town, Huangchuan County, said that within a radius of 30 kilometers this year, a commissioned grain storage site in Baidian Town was still opening and collecting grain. There were hundreds of cars in line, but they could not unload 10 cars a day.

"I've pulled more than 50,000 jin of grain. I've been waiting for a week and haven't sold it yet. Others waited longer, waiting for more than 10 days. But there are also people who can unload the goods when they come. As soon as they ask about what they are selling, they have to pay the inspectors a good fee of about NT $500 each time. They can check the quality without waiting in line, and directly weigh themselves into the warehouse after inspection. "

Through the transmission of the food chain, the capital chain, and the land chain, the continuous difficulty in selling grain has put pressure on new agricultural operators such as large grain growers and family farms: after buying a large amount of grain, some grain brokers are forced to pay debts; large grain growers struggle to maintain, borrow money or have no money to invest in reproduction; agricultural dealers sell on credit seriously, and it is difficult to operate.

Xing Changyin, vice chairman of the Native Gold planting Cooperative in Tanghe County, Henan Province, said that since the establishment of the cooperative, more than 800 mu of subcontracted land and 2000 mu of trusteeship land have been subcontracted, and the total output of wheat this year is 720000 jin. Due to poor quality and low selling price, it was originally expected that autumn grain could fight a turnaround, but it was also difficult to sell grain. "when the co-operative was established, it was named 'native money' for good fortune, but now it has become a 'native trouble'."

Yang Jun, a professor at the University of International Business and Economics, said that judging from the grain fluctuations in China from 1978 to 2013, grain production was increased whenever the planting profit margin was high; if the grain profit margin was too low, it would easily lead to a sustained reduction in production. It is suggested that the parties concerned should closely monitor the change of the rate of return of grain production to ensure that the profit margin of farmers growing grain is at a reasonable level and stabilize grain production.

The relevant responsible person of Zhengzhou Grain Wholesale Market believes that with high inventories and serious upside-down grain prices at home and abroad, the grain policy collection and storage system that has been implemented for many years is facing an adjustment window, and striving to achieve "price compensation and separation" and allowing grain prices to return to the market is the general direction of the future, but under the circumstances that it is difficult to put the reform in place in the short term, all localities should severely punish phenomena such as "selling grain through the back door" that infringe upon farmers' interests.
