Talking about soybean planting

Wheat, corn, soybean and rice are the four main food crops in China. The planting area and scope are large, and the level of planting income has a great influence on farmers' enthusiasm for planting.

Planting income mainly consists of three aspects, one is output, the other is price, and the third is subsidy.

In the No.1 Document of the Central Committee in 2023, the subsidy part also gave a certain direction. In the process of implementing a new round of action to improve grain production capacity 1000 billion Jin, the minimum purchase price of wheat and rice and subsidies for corn and soybean producers have protected farmers' planting interests to a certain extent and improved their enthusiasm.

According to the No.1 Document of the Central Committee, the minimum purchase price and producer subsidies will continue to be raised this year. What exactly is it? What dividends do farmers get? In this article, the assistant will tell you in detail.

Continue to raise the minimum purchase price of wheat

The minimum purchase price of wheat is a grain price control policy to protect farmers' interests and ensure the supply of grain market.

From 2004 to 2023, it was implemented for nearly 20 years, with ups and downs. From 2020 to 2023, the minimum purchase price of wheat achieved "three consecutive rises".

The minimum purchase price of wheat in 2020 (the price per 50kg of wheat (third-class) in that year, the same below) is 1. 12 yuan/kg, in 20261./3 yuan/kg and in 20221.

The minimum protective price of wheat has been rising. In the past two years, the market price of wheat has also been rising. 1.3- 1.4 yuan/kg became the universal price, which increased the farming income for farmers.

According to the No.1 document "Continue to raise the minimum purchase price of wheat", the market price of wheat may be raised again, which is good for farmers and improves their enthusiasm for planting.

Reasonably determine the minimum purchase price of rice

The minimum purchase price of rice also started in 2004, and it has been nearly 20 years this year. In the course of so many years, like wheat, it has risen and fallen, and it has also shown an upward trend in recent years.

The minimum purchase prices of early indica rice (third grade, the same below), mid-late indica rice and japonica rice produced in 2020 are 50 kg 12 1 yuan, 127 yuan and 130 yuan respectively.

202 1 year is 50 kg 122 yuan, 128 yuan and 130 yuan respectively.

124 yuan, 129 yuan and 13 1 yuan per 50 kg in 2022.

The minimum purchase price of rice this year (2023) has not yet been introduced. According to the "Reasonable Determination of the Minimum Purchase Price of Rice" mentioned in Document No.1, many people in the industry expect it to be equal to or higher than last year's minimum purchase price.

This is also good news for rice growers.

Increase subsidies to corn and soybean producers

In the past, there was a minimum purchase price policy for corn and soybeans. However, since 20 17, the minimum purchase price policy has been changed to "market acquisition+producer subsidy". The prices of corn and soybeans are determined by the market, and the state will subsidize them to a certain extent.

This year's No.1 document mentioned "increasing subsidies for corn and soybean producers", followed by a key point, solidly promoting the compound planting of soybeans and corn with fields, supporting the rotation of grain and beans in Northeast China, the Yellow River, the Huaihe River and the sea area, and steadily developing and utilizing saline-alkali land to grow soybeans.

In other words, it is necessary to increase the planting area of soybeans, narrow the income gap between planting corn and soybeans by "increasing crop rotation subsidies", gradually increase the number of farmers planting soybeans, and improve the self-sufficiency rate of soybeans.

Northeast China and Inner Mongolia are the main producing areas for growing corn and soybeans. In Heilongjiang, planting corn in 2022 and subsidizing 28 yuan per mu will be at least 200 yuan/mu higher than planting corn.

In addition, in some areas of Harbin, in addition to normal producer subsidies, farmers who grow soybeans are also given subsidies for improved varieties of 30 yuan per mu to promote farmers' enthusiasm for planting soybeans.

The release of the No.1 Document of the Central Committee in 2023 gave direction and laid the guidelines for agricultural planting.

Consolidate the foundation of food security in all directions, strengthen the material foundation of above-ground grain storage and technical grain storage, and improve the mechanism guarantee for farmers to earn money by growing grain and local governments to be responsible for growing grain.

Food is fundamental. As the old saying goes, "don't panic if you have food at home." With the increase of grain output, farmers' planting efficiency will be improved, so farmers can earn money by farming. The enthusiasm for planting is self-evident. This is a virtuous circle and a situation that everyone is willing to see.

Of course, in addition to increasing the minimum purchase price of wheat, reasonably determining the minimum purchase price of rice and increasing subsidies to corn and soybean producers, from the perspective of farmers, the increase in agricultural prices in recent years has increased the planting cost, and I hope that the prices of agricultural materials such as seeds, fertilizers and pesticides will fall back as soon as possible.

Under various factors, such as high grain yield, rising food prices and falling agricultural materials, farmers' income from farming increased, which really made farmers taste dividends.

This year's No.1 Document of the Central Committee puts grain production in the first place, which also shows its importance. In the words of some farmers, the release of Document No.1 in 2023 will make farmers blessed.
