Due to many market rumors, under the current situation of overall low domestic wheat prices, many farmers in producing areas find it difficult to choose how to plant wheat next year, and the work of wheat preparation in producing areas is slow.

"compared with the same period last year, the current wheat price is generally low, coupled with the decline in per unit yield caused by heavy rain in the wheat harvest areas this year, the income of wheat farmers is not as good as that of last year, and some large grain growers and agricultural cooperatives have also suffered losses in growing wheat." Li Jianjun, a wheat trader in Yanjin County, Henan Province, told Futures Daily that if the minimum wheat purchase policy is cancelled or the minimum wheat purchase price is substantially reduced next year, then farmers in the producing areas will certainly greatly reduce the sown area of wheat, and even some farmers in the producing areas will abandon their ploughing.

Li Jianjun said: at present, the supply of wheat in the market is tight, and most of the wheat has been acquired and stored by relevant institutions as policy stockpiles, and wheat prices are expected to continue to rise in the later stage, but due to fears that the minimum purchase price for wheat will be lowered next year, many traders and grain depots have increased their efforts to get out of the warehouse, and demand enterprises such as flour mills have also appropriately reduced production turnover inventory. However, according to Hu Yongxin, a wheat trader in Yixing City, Jiangsu Province, the probability of adjusting the policy of purchasing wheat at the lowest price next year is not high. To investigate the reason, first, since the listing of new corn this year, there has been a major adjustment in the domestic corn market policy. on the one hand, it has completely cancelled the corn temporary storage and acquisition policy, on the other hand, it has comprehensively implemented the policy of "separation of price and compensation". This makes the corn market full of variables, whether the market can operate stably after the new corn is listed in large quantities, what kind of reaction the market parties will make to the new policy, and so on. At present, no one can give a clear answer. Under such circumstances, the relevant agencies will certainly not make any more big moves in the food rations market, and the minimum wheat purchase policy will not be adjusted next year.

As for whether it will be adjusted in the future, it depends on the effect of policy adjustment in the market of agricultural products such as corn. Second, in recent years, the supply and demand of China's wheat market is basically balanced, wheat output has not increased substantially, and the sown area of some producing areas, such as Hebei, has also declined. The important thing is that the main body of the market is mainly grain storage and other institutions. Domestic wheat inventory seems to be very large, in fact, there is the problem of over-concentration. From the point of view of ensuring the safety of rations, the wheat market policy will not be adjusted abruptly.

Based on the analysis of the current situation of the domestic and foreign agricultural products market, many experts believe that due to the increase in the production of major grain and oil producing countries in the international market and the overall increase in domestic grain and oil production, the prices of major grain and oil varieties in the world are at an all-time low. At this time, it is very important to maintain the enthusiasm of farmers to grow grain and to keep the output of important grain and oil varieties from "cliff" reduction due to low prices, which is also conducive to preventing grain and oil prices from skyrocketing in the future. Therefore, it is unlikely that the policy of purchasing wheat at the lowest price will be adjusted next year.
