Improve the agricultural price system as soon as possible - from the voices of the CPPCC National Committee members

Construction of a stable policy framework for agricultural prices

CPPCC National Committee members, the Ministry of Agriculture Market and Economic Information Division Keming Qian told reporters, according to the Ministry of Agriculture monitoring, since September 2008 show the majority of agricultural prices trend downward, in October the national rice, oilseeds, cotton, vegetables, pigs and other 31 kinds of 30 kinds of products have dropped prices to varying degrees. The current trend of prices of agricultural products is continuing. Decreased efficiency of food production, according to the Ministry of Agriculture estimated that in 2008 rice, wheat, corn亩均three main varieties of grain, net income was only 136 yuan more than in 2007 to reduce the 31 yuan. Peasant farmers and the wage income of double reduction. According to the Ministry of Agriculture National Rural fixed observation point the investigation in January this year, close to 20 million peasant home, rural residents per capita net income reduced to about 250. The forecast shows that the decline in prices of agricultural products will enable our country this year, Farmer per capita cash income of the sale of agricultural products to reduce the 100 yuan. Non-farm income and prices of agricultural products down "dual meet" will result in the income of the farmers reduced by about 350 yuan.

To this end, it is recommended to take the five major initiatives, stable prices of agricultural products: 1. To improve the minimum purchase price policy. To raise the minimum price level, the expansion of policy coverage, the lowest price and give full play to the role of propping up the market. 2.收储greater intensity. 收储expanded scale, and give full play to society收储National收储the leading role. 3. Flexibility in the use of trade policy. The use of export tax rebates, export quarantine fees waiver approach, the promotion of agricultural exports. General use of import tariffs, quotas, technical barriers to such measures as import grasp the opportunity to prevent low-priced agricultural products abroad on the impact of China's agricultural market. 4. To support the domestic marketing of agricultural products processing. On the acquisition, processing and marketing of domestic cotton, soybeans, corn and other staple agricultural products, the proper conduct of freight subsidies, subsidized loans and tax incentives. 5. The elimination of agricultural products is not conducive to price stability and a reasonable increase in the factors. The use of CPI down, supply and demand to improve the favorable situation to further the abolition of production and marketing aspect of unreasonable charges, against United to keep the prices down, wrongful acts, such as the dissemination of false information. Fresh agricultural products promotional set up contingency mechanism to deal with emergencies caused by the difficulty in selling agricultural products questions.

Standards to ensure that the subsidies so that farmers profitable

CPPCC National Committee members, Sichuan University of Science and Technology, Professor Wu Zhengde electron in an interview with reporters think, since 2004, our country to adopt international practices, to give series of subsidies to grain farmers. This is a popular利国利民policy. However, because of comparative effectiveness of grain has been low, the wasted growing phenomenon. Abandonment of arable land in rural areas is one of the root causes of grain is not worthwhile, while subsidies Huinong irreparable loss of grain farmers. At diminishing the role of policy incentives to subsidize farmers frustrated enthusiasm for growing grain, the focus on improving the existing subsidy policies Huinong imminent. To this end, he made the following recommendations:

First, the standard to allow farmers to ensure that subsidies are "profitable." Recommends that the Government improve grain subsidy standards, the rate of increase higher than inflation index or rate of increase in agricultural prices. Gradually set up agricultural subsidies and grain prices linked to the dynamic adjustment mechanism. At the same time, strictly control the agricultural price increases, after several years of adjustment, grain subsidies for grain farmers accounted for net income more than 50%.

Second, according to the actual grain subsidies area. Historical, technical and other reasons, the existing grain subsidies in general according to the second round of land contract granting tax area, as currently allowed under the land is indeed the right to reflect the pilot areas, there right after the area of arable land area is generally greater than the tax. Therefore, the Government must be fully foreseeable that the total increase in subsidies, subsidies in advance to raise funds for many kinds of grain cultivated by the issuance of the corresponding subsidies.

Three are actively exploring the industrialization of agriculture subsidies in the form of the way. Reality, "Who will benefit the land" and the country "Who will benefit farming" runs counter to the policy, subsidies do not play the role of "奖勤罚懒" role. Recommend to the Central separating land contract and management rights, will receive subsidies for operating leases as the only credentials, to take stock of subsidies unchanged, the increment of grain subsidies to the large tilt grain policy, so that those who really enjoy the grain subsidies.

Establish a rational pricing mechanism for agricultural products

CPPCC member and president of Harbin University of Commerce Assistant Sun Health recommends that a comprehensive set up a reasonable mechanism for the formation of agricultural prices. A substantial increase at the lowest price on the basis of the appropriate relaxation of the ceiling of food price fluctuations. To encourage support for major grain-producing areas will be operational mechanism for the introduction of the currency bank food circulation; recommendations cf National policy acquisition costs of interest subsidies for food policy, the main grain-producing areas by the number of approved standards, given the cost of General Interest subsidies; carried out by peasant food generation storage, distribution and other services to attract粮源guide food producers, operators carrying out futures trading business, to build a market risk circumvention of the "security barrier"; suggested that the state set up a long-term mechanism of compensation benefits for the development of great potential for major grain-producing areas of focus tilt; further improve the grain risk fund policy, the abolition of the main producing areas of the matching place.

Chinese KMT Central Committee recommends that the State shall, in accordance with the proceeds of peasant grain Change, adjust the minimum price level at any time, so that the minimum purchase price is always higher than the food costs, and improve the minimum purchase price policy mechanism to ensure that grain farmers last line of defense. China Association for Promoting Democracy Central Committee recommends that healthy food prices and the cost of production and farmers income linkage adjustment mechanism, in accordance with changes in cost of food to determine the minimum price level, and set up reasonable growth rates. China Zhi Gong Dang proposed, in the overall increase in food prices, based on the implementation of "one dime project" on the sale of marketable grain subsidies to farmers catty one dime. China Democratic National Construction Association Central Committee recommends that: improve seed subsidy standards, in accordance with plant specifications per the actual use of the full amount of subsidies.

Put forward by the Central Revolutionary Committee, the main grain producing areas and grain-producing cadres performance appraisal linked with other regions to adopt different cadres indicators. Country should increase grain production areas of the financial transfer payment, balance of major grain-producing areas and other areas of the economy between the income gap.
