How to buy wood?

The Forestry Department of China purchases and distributes timber in the southern collective forest areas listed in the national plan. It has the duality of commerce and production. As a product of origin, logs are sold in the primary market and purchased by the state, which belongs to the scope of commodity circulation; Because the purchased wood can only be sold to users after loading and unloading, pushing, leaving the river, transportation, classification and storage from the place of origin to the place of sale, and it has a lot of labor input, it can be used as a part of the whole wood production process.

The starting point for the country to buy wood is: ① to meet the growing needs of national economic construction and people's lives; (2) Guide the smooth development of timber production through acquisition, so that it can be better included in the national plan; ③ In order to effectively control the price of wood, correctly handle the interest relationship between wood producers and consumers.

Acquisition method

From 1949 to 1950, the timber trade in South China is mainly operated by private timber merchants. The purchase price of wood changes with other prices in the sales area and the fluctuation of wood prices, and it is still negotiated according to the "Longquan code price". 195 1 year, the state decided to freeze private timber, which was listed by the state at a fixed point and purchased on the spot. 1953 forest industry organizations in various provinces (regions) have been established one after another, and the policy of "comprehensive management in the middle and moderate control at both ends" has been implemented. While purchasing timber, we should strictly implement the price policy and strengthen the management of timber trade. Since 1956, the forest industry department has been directly linked to agricultural production cooperatives, and "planned control and contracted acquisition" has been implemented. Grass-roots timber purchasing organizations with the central task of purchasing timber produced by working people and collective units have been gradually established in various places. The basic points of implementing "contract acquisition" are: according to the planned tasks issued by the state, under the condition of mastering the forest resources status and timber production capacity of each unit, and according to the cutting scope, cutting method and cutting volume approved by the local forestry department, the timber acquisition unit and each collective timber production unit will sign a contract to stipulate the rights and obligations of both parties. The production unit shall collect and transport the timber to the railway, highway and riverside loading yard (or river-pushing yard) and sell it to the purchasing unit according to the conditions stipulated in the contract, such as mountain yard, tree species, wood species, specifications, quantity, quality, renewal measures and comprehensive utilization. We should also be responsible for the renewal of logging land, the rational utilization of resources and the comprehensive utilization of wood. The acquirer carries out acceptance, settlement and payment according to the time stipulated in the contract, and provides technical guidance for the forest renewal and resource utilization of the production unit, and at the same time, the compensation methods for breach of contract by both parties are stipulated accordingly.

Since 198 1, the state has gradually cancelled the timber purchase task in the southern collective forest areas. First, the national procurement is 70 ~ 90%. 1985 In the Ten Policies on Further Invigorating the Rural Economy issued by the Central Committee and the State Council, it was decided that "collective forest areas should cancel the unified purchase of timber, open the timber market, allow forest farmers and collective timber to be listed freely, and implement the boom of purchase and sale". Production and sales meet directly, and many companies operate, and the market is active. The forestry department has taken the following measures: ① carrying out system reform, giving full play to its own advantages and establishing a timber trading center; Use existing facilities, technology and manpower to provide services to the society; (2) combining forestry with industry and forestry with trade; (3) setting the guiding price of wood; (4) Strengthen forestry administration.

Purchasing organization

The timber purchase business in the southern collective forest area is organized by the local forestry department (county forestry bureau, timber company and timber water transport bureau), and there are timber purchase stations or timber purchase stations under it. In addition to purchasing timber, timber purchasing stations also carry out certain land sales business. At the same time, they all concentrated a certain amount of labor and equipment to carry out the next stage of timber transportation activities, that is, loading and transporting the purchased timber from the acquisition point to the national timber storage yard (or timber transfer station) where timber was transported centrally. The management system, business scope and tasks of timber purchasing stations are different from place to place. Generally, the setting of purchasing stations should be based on the natural flow of timber, which is convenient for the collective sale, centralized storage, timely acceptance, transshipment and allocation of timber, and should be adapted to the administrative system as much as possible. Most of them are located in river basins or highway trunk lines and close to towns and villages. Usually in the main forest areas, one stop takes one township as the business scope; In general forest areas, 2 ~ 3 townships that can naturally flow in the same direction are the business scope; There is also a separate TV station in a county.

The timber purchasing station is a bridge between the state-owned economy and the collective economy, and shoulders the task of organizing the timber production, purchasing and sales of collective units based on forest management. The specific business work of the station can be summarized as follows: ① Do a good job in contracting and purchasing, often investigate and understand the implementation of purchasing price, and use price leverage to promote collective timber production. And do a good job in product specifications and quality to ensure the completion of various contracts and national plans. ② Do a good job in product inspection and storage. (3) Do a good job in transportation organization, material arrival and land sales distribution, and make financial settlement in time. (four) conscientiously implement the forest management policy, protect forests, organize collective timber production, and renew afforestation. ⑤ Actively publicize the national forestry policy.

The product acceptance of wood purchasing station is to count the quantity and grade of products through wood inspection on the premise of ensuring specifications and quality. It is an important measure to implement rational logging, rational timber making and rational use of timber, and it is also a link to implement national policies and decrees and contact the masses. It is not only related to meeting the needs of users, but also to improving the economic benefits of enterprises, and it is an important symbol of the management level of acquisition units.
