The latest agricultural subsidy policy to be implemented in 2016, do not know how to play the policy!

According to relevant officials of the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Agriculture, the reform of the "three subsidies" in agriculture will be carried out nationwide in 2016 on the basis of summing up pilot experience and further improving policies and measures.

1. 20% of the comprehensive agricultural subsidy funds will be adjusted nationwide to support the appropriate scale operation of grain.

According to the decline in the prices of agricultural means of production, provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities directly under the Central Government and cities separately listed on the State plan will adjust 20% of the comprehensive subsidies for agricultural materials issued by the central financial arrangements. in addition, the pilot funds for subsidies for large grain growers and the incremental funds for the "three subsidies" in agriculture will be used as a whole to support the appropriate scale operation of grain.

The support targets are moderate-scale producers and operators of major food crops, with emphasis on new types of operators such as large grain growers, family farms, farmers' cooperatives, agricultural socialized service organizations, and so on.

Some areas have been selected for pilot projects in the past 15 years.

In 2015, the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Agriculture selected five provinces, including Anhui, Shandong, Hunan, Sichuan and Zhejiang, to carry out pilot agricultural "three subsidies" reform.

The main content of the pilot project is to merge the "three agricultural subsidies" into "agricultural support and protection subsidies", and the policy objective is adjusted to support the protection of cultivated land and the appropriate scale operation of grain.

The person in charge also said that 80% of the stock of comprehensive agricultural subsidies, plus direct subsidies for grain farmers and subsidies for improved varieties of crops, will be used for the protection of cultivated land.

3. Persist in protecting resources and subsidizing actual growers

At the same time, it is necessary to mobilize farmers to strengthen their awareness of the protection of agricultural ecological resources, take the initiative to protect soil fertility, and encourage straw to be returned to the field without burning in the open air. This part of the subsidy funds are still in the form of direct cash subsidies to households.

20% of the stock of comprehensive subsidies for agricultural materials, together with pilot funds for subsidies for large grain growers and incremental funds for the "three subsidies" in agriculture, will focus on supporting appropriate scale operation of grain in accordance with the requirements of unified adjustment and improvement of policies.
