China Grain Storage was reported to have illegally imported genetically modified rapeseed oil into the national market.

According to thepaper.cn, China Grain Storage Hunan Company was reported to have withheld 30 million yuan due to illegal operations, and a number of companies it commissioned were accused of using "top package" methods to import genetically modified rapeseed oil to make huge profits.

The following are the details:

After it was revealed two years ago that genetically modified rapeseed oil had been imported into subordinate national warehouses, and after the recent incident of using old grain to replace new grain, it was reported that a large amount of funds had been intercepted as a result of illegal operations. a number of enterprises it commissioned were accused of using "top packaging" methods to import genetically modified rapeseed oil, making huge profits from it.

Peng Qinglan, a worker of Yueyang Xiaogang Grain Depot in Yueyang, Hunan Province, has reported that the subordinate companies of stored Grain have been practicing fraud with entrusted enterprises in the acquisition of supporting the market for 4 years, purchasing a large amount of genetically modified vegetable oil "top bag" and flowing it into the national temporary reserve warehouse.

Peng Qinglan reported that during the collection and storage process in 2014, the Hunan branch of China Storage Grain illegally repaid 60 million of the rapeseed purchase funds originally paid to farmers to Yueyang Yongsheng Oil and Chemical Co., Ltd., resulting in the interception of about 30 million yuan.

In response to Peng Qinglan's report, the China Grain Storage Corporation replied to thepaper.cn by email on May 15 that the case of violation by the entrusted enterprise Yongsheng Oil Company reported by the whistleblower had been dealt with in 2014, and the funds involved had been fully recovered. the public security organ has filed a case for investigation. At the same time, Hunan Branch was instructed to seriously deal with the relevant personnel who were responsible for supervision.

However, the China National Grain Storage Corporation did not comment on the mixing of imported genetically modified rapeseed oil into the country's temporary storage depots reported by Peng Qinglan. However, public reports show that in 2013, China Grain Storage was exposed to import genetically modified rapeseed oil into the national storeroom. at that time, two entrusted enterprises in Hubei and Hunan illegally mixed 1477 tons of imported rapeseed oil into temporary storage stocks. Hunan Baling Oil Company, an entrusted company for medium grain storage reported by Peng Qinglan, was later confirmed to have imported genetically modified rapeseed oil.

The entrusting enterprise is accused of taking 30 million of the funds and reporting the case of grain reserves.

Over the past four years, Peng Qinglan has been collecting evidence, reporting that a large amount of funds were intercepted due to illegal operations, involving 30 million yuan.

A number of insiders from the Hunan Branch of China Storage Grain confirmed to thepaper.cn that Baixiong, a legal person of the Yongsheng Oil Company, a company involved, was detained by the public security organs in April this year and approved the arrest by the procuratorial organs around May 8. At that time, Ma Yijun, director of the Changsha Rice Factory of China stored Grain Hunan Branch, which was responsible for supervising the rapeseed acquisition of Yongsheng Oil Company, was fired, and four related personnel were dealt with.

In 2014, Yongsheng Oil Company received a purchase task of 11900 tons of rapeseed, equivalent to 4000 tons of processed rapeseed oil, an insider from the Yueyang Xiaogang warehouse told thepaper.cn on May 10. However, Yongsheng Oil Company only delivered 2000 tons of rapeseed oil to the national temporary storage, but received 60 million of the purchase money from the Agricultural Development Bank, of which 30 million was intercepted.

According to an analyst in the domestic grain and oil industry, according to the 2014 rapeseed purchase policy, the purchase money is directly "issued on the card" to farmers. Farmers or vendors pay how much rapeseed, the Agricultural Development Bank will directly remit the acquisition funds to the farmers' bank account, entrusting the acquisition enterprise is unable to access the acquisition funds. China Grain Storage shall only conclude a contract with the entrusted enterprise and pay processing and warehousing fees.

In the rapeseed purchase task in 2014, the collection and storage company under China Grain Storage Hunan Branch was responsible for the collection and storage supervision, and then handed over the supervision accounts to the subordinate warehouse for safekeeping and supervision. At that time, "Yongsheng Oil Company only finished collecting more than 6000 tons of rapeseed, but it was 11900 tons on book." The insider disclosed.

On May 15, the China Grain Storage Corporation confirmed the "violation case of Yongsheng Oil Company" by e-mail to thepaper.cn, and said that all the funds involved had been recovered. "China Grain Storage Hunan Branch, as the injured party, after discovering the violation of Yongsheng Oil Company last year, reported the case to the public security organ as soon as possible, and the public security organ has filed a case for investigation."

The China Grain Storage Corporation said that in accordance with relevant state policies, the rapeseed oil of Yongsheng Oil Company was withdrawn from the national temporary storage inventory at the end of last year, and it has been added to the blacklist of state policy acquisition enterprises to recover its illegal income. At the same time, the Hunan Branch has been instructed to seriously deal with the relevant personnel who are responsible for supervision.

A person close to the state ministry told thepaper.cn that after the "storm" of genetically modified grain storage in mid-2013, the rapeseed acquisition process in 2014 was strictly regulated and no violations were found. However, there are many disadvantages in the implementation of the buyout, and "the country is also a headache." the policy may be adjusted this year, which has not yet been determined.

Doubt about "genetically modified"

On May 11, in the vast farmland along Dongting Lake in Yueyang City, there were not only golden wheat and harvested rice stubble, but also patches of rapeseed to be harvested. Rape bolts and blossoms in late March, begins to seed in April, and gradually enters the harvest period in late May.

At this time, in Junshan District, one of the main rapeseed producing areas in Yueyang City, many farmers have begun to harvest sporadic yellowed mature rapeseed. According to the usual practice, the state will release this year's acquisition plan to support the market in about 20 days. However, farmers here feel that the market buyout policy is "too far" from them. Farmers' rapeseed are mostly bought by vendors at low prices and resold.

As a large central enterprise, China Grain Storage has set up strategic grain and oil reserves in various places to regulate and control the grain and oil market. According to the official website of the China Grain Storage Corporation, the company is a large and important state-owned backbone enterprise established with the approval of the State Council, involving national security and the lifeline of the national economy, and is specifically responsible for the operation and management of the central grain and oil reserves entrusted by the State Council. at the same time, it is entrusted by the state to carry out regulation and control tasks such as the purchase, sale and storage of grain and oil.

In 2008, under the influence of the international financial crisis, the prices of rapeseed and rapeseed oil at home and abroad plummeted. In order to protect the interests of farmers and stabilize the supply and price of edible oil market, the state implemented rapeseed market purchase. The so-called market purchase means that the purchase price is set by the state, and the oil processing enterprises are commissioned by the China Grain Storage Company to publicly list and purchase farmers' rapeseed. The enterprise processes the acquired rapeseed into rapeseed oil (Grade IV of the national standard) and transfers it to the national temporary reserve and storage. The state finance gives the enterprise 220 yuan per ton for processing and certain warehousing subsidies.

According to the relevant regulations of the state, it is strictly forbidden to transfer or directly purchase rapeseed oil from the existing stock of aged oil into storage; it is strictly forbidden to import imported rapeseed into storage as national temporary storage oil; and there shall be no adulteration of cottonseed oil, palm oil and other adulteration.
