The seed market is full of vitality to guard the use of seeds for farmers.

Another batch of new varieties have been approved, and another batch of old varieties have withdrawn, just like the metabolism of the human body. Due to the continuous entry of new varieties, old varieties have been eliminated, and the seed market is full of vitality.

With the advent of new varieties, the variety approval system has once again entered people's field of vision. For a long time, there has been a debate between insisting on the examination and approval system and implementing the variety registration system. The relevant leaders of the seed Administration of the Ministry of Agriculture have repeatedly expressed their views on insisting on the implementation of the variety approval system. They believe that the reason for the approval system is that grain, cotton and oil can not be out of control, what kind of varieties can enter the market, and the grade of varieties should be decided by the state. If it is up to the enterprise to decide, the honesty of the enterprise and the discrimination of the farmers can not be reached at present. What farmers want is for the government to tell him which varieties are good and which are not.

As a matter of fact, such propositions are not only in the "official family", but also among the people. In the interview, many farmers said that there were too many varieties on the market for them to choose, and it would be much easier for them to worry if they were guarded by the state. Peng Zhisong, a major wheat grower in Guanwang Village, Taolin Town, Donghai County, Jiangsu Province, is the representative of this point of view. He told reporters that he felt that the variety approval system was very necessary: "what has been approved by the state is definitely qualified and has quality assurance." Peng Zhisong planted more than 1400 mu of land, and the seeds he chose were "Jimai 22" and "Yannong 19." the reason why he chose these two varieties, Peng Zhisong said, "they have passed the examination and approval of the regular goods in the regular store, and they are secure and secure."

There are also dealers with this simple idea of farmers. Zhang Fumin, manager of Jilin Fumin seed Industry Co., Ltd., is very excited to report the good news to the reporter. The "Fumin 58" he cultivated has just passed the provincial examination. "Fumin 58", which was not empty in the year of the drought, has a legal ID card, together with another variety sold by his company, "Liangyu 99", which sells well. Zhang Fumin said that if there is no approval, then the market will fundamentally lose supervision, which is not good for enterprises. He said that all the legal seeds sold in his store were approved. "now the cost of breaking the law is high, and there are people around who used to sell untried seeds, and now they no longer sell them." The proportion of farmers choosing regular seeds is also increasing. "

For a period of time in the future, at least at this stage, the variety approval system is irreplaceable, so it is particularly important to improve it as soon as possible and make it safer and more convenient for farmers to choose new varieties. Li Liqiu, secretary general of the seed Association, said that the purpose of examination and approval should be focused on the safety of seed use, reform of management methods and standards, and reduction of crop types, all of which are mentioned in the revised draft of the seed Law. The introduction of adjacent ecological regions or non-adjacent but ecologically similar areas should be simplified and released on a wide road. in this regard, the combination of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei provinces and cities, one examination and approval of the sharing of three places is a good practice.

In addition to geographical problems, the long time for variety approval is also where people are not satisfied with this system. Li Denghai, a famous breeder, was deeply impressed: last year's revised examination and approval method stipulated that the variety approval procedure should be the first year pre-test, the 2-3 year regional test, the fourth year production test, and the second half of the fifth year. It can only be produced in the sixth year after the production period, and can only be planted in the seventh year. This is obviously not in line with the state's requirement for us to produce more results and produce faster results. Zhang Fumin thinks that the examination and approval system should be more reasonable, and the most important thing is to shorten the number of years, otherwise, although it has passed the examination and approval, the variety has already fallen behind. Fortunately, the motion of the National people's Congress proposes to abolish the pre-test direct regional examination, and a good performance in the regional test can also increase the number of points, which will speed up the efficiency of examination and approval.

As for the withdrawal of varieties, almost everyone agrees that it is not only necessary but also necessary to step up efforts. The timely withdrawal of varieties is of great benefit to purify the seed market and ensure the safe use of seeds by farmers. At present, the Ministry of Agriculture and the provinces have stepped up the withdrawal of varieties. In terms of eliminating defective varieties, Jiangsu, Hunan and other provinces have made great moves. Last year, Hunan conducted a field survey of watermelon and pepper varieties, withdrawing 6 watermelon varieties and 11 pepper varieties in time. Jiangsu has increased the coverage of major varieties this year, withdrawing 122 major crop varieties, including "Taihu glutinous", among which 21 varieties with a small area in production will be withdrawn from the market in 2017.

With the continuous emergence of new varieties, there is more room for farmers to choose seeds, old varieties to withdraw, and farmers to choose varieties more safely and effectively. under the protection of double insurance, farmers' production is safe and their vital interests are more protected. again, farmers use seeds safely, food safety production is guaranteed, and the cornerstone of society is secure.
