The reporter learned from the China National Reserve Grain Corporation on September 2 that in accordance with the provisions of the national minimum purchase price, China Reserve Grain started the purchase of wheat in Jiangsu, Hubei, Anhui, Henan and Shandong at the end of May and the purchase of early indica rice in Anhui, Jiangxi, Hunan and Hubei at the end of July. The acquisition work is stable and orderly, and has now come to an end. As of August 31, the total purchase of 18.9 million tons of wheat has been completed. It decreased by 25% over the same period last year, and completed the purchase of 2.35 million tons of early indica rice in the market, a decrease of 24% over the same period last year, mainly due to the fact that the imperfect grains of wheat in Hubei, Anhui and Henan exceeded the standard.

In the whole process, we will strictly implement the quality standards set by the state for the acquisition of wheat with imperfect grains less than 10%, strictly supervise the entrustment points, and shall not lower the grades and prices to harm the interests of farmers, nor shall we relax the acquisition standards without authorization to harm the interests of the country. we will implement the system of holding certificates for inspectors at various warehouse sites. At the same time, the enterprises directly under China Grain Storage strengthen the policy propaganda, explanation and guidance to farmers, extend their services to farmers, actively provide farmers with technical guidance on single income and storage and grain protection in rainy season, and use their customer resources to help farmers sell over-standard grain and help farmers reduce losses due to disasters.
