(Original title: Large grain farmers have "destruction of contract" and "receipt")
The price of food is lower, and the big grain growers confess "three expectations"
[ China Agricultural Machinery Industry News ] In order to study and implement the spirit of the Central Rural Work Conference and the Central Document No. 1 and promote the structural reform of the agricultural supply side with practical actions, the Ministry of Agriculture organized the “Baixiang†for the seventh consecutive year starting on February 16. The “10,000 household survey†activities sent out 28 investigation teams to 108 departmental cadres and went deep into 27 provinces across the country.
The activities focused on the impact of the downward trend of agricultural product prices on the enthusiasm of farmers to grow grain, the new business entities in the industry to promote poverty, promote green production methods, and cultivate new kinetic energy for agricultural and rural development, aiming to penetrate the grassroots level, closely contact the masses, and promote The structural reform of the agricultural supply side and the acceleration of agricultural modernization.
The price of food is lower, and the big grain growers confess "three expectations"
What is the impact of lower food prices on farmers' enthusiasm for growing grain? Recently, the Ministry of Agriculture's “100 Township Household Survey†activities went to the Hebei investigation team to have a discussion with 17 large grain farmers in 4 townships of Wuyi County. Most large grain growers report that the decline in food prices has seriously hampered their enthusiasm for growing grain and worried about the prospect of large-scale grain farming. A large grain family has lost 3.4 million yuan in two years, and it has been "destroyed and abandoned" because of overwhelming burden. However, there are also a small number of large grain households who choose to “follow the trend†in the case of “double down†in cost and food prices.
How high is the cost of growing grain? A large grain accountant such as Ge Baolin, a former Suguo village in Zhengpo Town, gave a detailed account to the investigation team. They grow one season of wheat and one season of corn every year. In 2016, the cost per acre of wheat was 771 yuan. According to the calculation of wheat yield of 900 kg per mu, 1.15 yuan per catty, the income per mu is 1035 yuan. After deducting the cost, the income per mu is 264 yuan. In 2016, the cost per acre of corn was 565 yuan. According to the calculation of corn yield of 1000 kg per mu, 0.72 yuan per catty, the income per mu is 720 yuan. After deducting the cost, the income per mu is 155 yuan. In the two seasons, the income per mu is 419 yuan. For large grain growers, the breakeven point per acre is 420 yuan per year. However, the local land transfer cost is 300 yuan to 800 yuan per mu per year, and a few well-formed plots cost more than 1,000 yuan per mu per year.
Due to the high cost of land transfer and the fall in food prices, a large number of large grain farmers have been overwhelmed and there has been a phenomenon of “rentback†or “running the roadâ€. One of the big grain growers in the former Xiaoxing Village of Daziita Township is one of them. In 2014, Laohuang transferred 1900 mu of cultivated land to grow wheat and corn at a price of 1080 yuan per mu (900 kg of wheat) per year. The contract period is 15 years. After the price of corn was lower, Laohuang lost a total of 3.4 million yuan in 2014 and 2015, and was forced to “destroy the farmlandâ€. Farmers who have been transferred to the old yellow land have not pursued a 20% liquidated damages in view of the fact that they cannot afford the original transfer fee. Old Huang is not reconciled. In 2016, he continued to grow grain by transferring 800 mu of land at a price of 300 yuan per mu per year.
In addition to the phenomenon of “destroying the contract and abandoning the farmlandâ€, there are also a few large grain households who have “double down†the price of grain and the price of land transfer, and “contrary to the trend†to expand the scale of contracted operations. Sun Mingshun, a large grain grower in Dongxiaoli Village, Daziita Township, transferred 100 mu of cultivated land at a price of 500 yuan per mu per year in 2013. In 2016, he transferred 100 mu of land at a price of 400 yuan per mu per year. 200 acres.
Many large grain producers generally report that the price of food has fallen in recent years, especially the decline in corn prices, far exceeding their psychological expectations. How to protect the enthusiasm of grain farmers? Large grain farmers confessed "three expectations" -
I hope that the state will further increase support for large grain growers. Give strong support to the funds, give preferential treatment to the policy, let them really enjoy the "real money" to help them tide over the difficulties.
Second, we hope to further improve the implementation mechanism of the current agricultural subsidies and ensure that the subsidy funds fall into the hands of the grain farmers. In particular, the newly introduced subsidy projects must have specific and clear implementation methods, and try to avoid disputes between large business owners and original contractors.
Sanwang further strengthened the training of farmers' practical technology. In view of the current situation of lack of technology and lack of information for large grain growers, we will further improve the grassroots agricultural technology extension system, improve the farmer training mechanism, improve the pertinence and effectiveness of training, and enable more grain farmers to grasp advanced and practical technologies through training. Understand market information, improve the ability to adapt to market changes, and increase confidence in the prospects for growing grain.
