Promote the reform and innovation of the central grain reserve system

"The eight rules of Hong Fan, the first rule of food." Food security concerns economic development, social stability and national security. Chinese rice bowls should be firmly in their own hands at all times, and they should mainly contain Chinese grain. Under the new situation, the implementation of the new national food security strategy of "focusing on ourselves, based on China, ensuring production capacity, moderate import and scientific and technological support" requires vigorously promoting the reform and innovation of the central grain reserve system.

Central grain reserve system is conducive to ensuring national food security

Establishing a central grain reserve system is our grand strategy to ensure food security. To maintain food security, there should be a red line for cultivated land, a red line for water resources and a red line for grain reserves.

Domestication is the strategic starting point for food security. Since the new century, China's grain output has achieved "eleven consecutive increases" and the food security situation has been fundamentally improved. However, this does not mean that the problem of food security in our country has been completely solved. China is in a period of accelerated industrialization and urbanization, and food security faces many challenges such as population, resources and environment. We must be soberly aware that to feed more than one billion Chinese people, we can only base ourselves on the domestic market and rely on ourselves.

The reserve system is the strategic cornerstone of the food security system. China's grain reserves have a long history and have played an important role in stabilizing the market, preparing for famine and supporting agriculture. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, China successively established strategic grain and oil reserves such as "A Grain" and "506 Grain", and established a national special grain reserve system in the 1990s. On the basis of summing up the experience and lessons of reserve operation, in order to deepen the reform of grain circulation system and improve the management system of central grain reserves, the CPC Central Committee and the State Council decided to establish China Grain Reserve Corporation in 2000 to implement vertical management of central grain reserves. The vertical system has become the main force and reliable carrier of national grain macro-control in the implementation of national policy grain and oil purchase, auction sales, inter-provincial transfer and transportation and emergency use of disaster relief.

The strategic role and carrying function of the central grain reserve system are increasingly prominent. In the new period, the guarantee function of central grain reserves has been upgraded from the initial "have"(quantity) to meet the comprehensive objectives of "full"(sufficient),"good"(quality) and "stable"(market). This requires us to take the basic self-sufficiency of grain service and absolute safety of rations as the main line of capacity building, give full play to the role of the main force in the regulation of grain service and the supporting role of domestic grain supply; optimize the reserve structure and layout and improve the quality of reserves with the goal of satisfying producers '"sellability", consumers'"affordability" and "eating well".

Continuously improve the central grain reserve system

The central grain reserve system is an important means of national grain macro-control. Constantly improving the central grain reserve system is a systematic project that requires multiple efforts.

Adhere to and improve the vertical management system. Practice shows that the vertical management system is effective, the market-oriented and enterprise-oriented operation mechanism of grain reserves is successful, and the role of the main force in the national grain macro-control system is remarkable. In the new period, we should give full play to the advantages of vertical management system, adhere to functional enterprise positioning, comprehensively focus on food security as the main business, and strive to realize the transformation from traditional enterprise management to modern enterprise system, decentralized operation to group management and control, and multi-head development to prominent main business.

Establish a risk resolution mechanism for storage. Perfecting the grain reserve system is an important part of perfecting the central grain reserve system. At present, a large number of policy-oriented grain and oil are entrusted to local enterprises for collection and storage, which has problems such as scattered storage points, difficult supervision and high risks. To solve these problems, it is necessary for the state to increase the investment in building positions, adhere to the policy of loan distribution and repayment in policy acquisition, implement who bears the deposit, who loans, who is responsible, and give full play to the supervision responsibilities of local governments and Agricultural Development Bank.

We will improve the market-oriented and enterprise-oriented operation mechanism. With the continuous improvement of the grain market system and the further strengthening of the central control capacity and control means, it is urgent to improve the market-oriented and enterprise-oriented operation mechanism of the central grain reserve system. We should adhere to the organic combination of policy, public welfare and market mechanism, the organic combination of national macro-control objectives and micro-operation of enterprises, be closer to the market, better actively serve and regulate through market mode, do a good job of rotating purchase and sales, throw high and suck low, cut peaks and fill valleys, and give full play to the role of backbone enterprises in ensuring supply and stabilizing prices. Establish a rotation risk adjustment mechanism as soon as possible to ensure the safety of central grain reserves.
