On September 11, the reporter learned from the press conference held by the State Grain and Materials Reserve Office that this year’s summer grain purchases are generally stable and orderly, the purchase is nearing completion, The fall grain is expected to be harvested and the purchase has also entered the planning and deployment stage. The operation of the domestic grain market was generally stable and the prices of the main varieties of grains fluctuated slightly, among which those of corn fell slightly.
By the end of August this year, the main producing areas had bought 49.26 million tons of wheat and 4.72 million tons of early indica rice, of which the lowest purchase price was 6.15 million tons. tons and 405,000 tons.
Qin Yuyun, director of the Department of Grain Reserves of the State Administration of Grain and Materials Reserves, said that in general, the obvious characteristics of high quality and better price, the increase in the proportion of market-oriented purchases and the increased Farmers’ willingness to store grain is the three new features of this summer grain purchase.
Currently, the average price of wheat in the main producing areas is about 1.18 yuan per cat, and the price of some high-quality varieties exceeds 1.27 yuan; the share of market-oriented wheat purchases exceeds 87%, an increase of 6 percentage points year-on-year; the share of market-oriented purchases of early indica rice exceeds 90%.
The purchase of autumn cereals is the main priority of the purchase of cereals throughout the year, which involves many links, a long period and a great social concern. To this end, the State Office of Grain and Material Reserves planned ahead and rapidly deployed, focusing on the “two acquisitions”, strengthening the “four guarantees” and improving the “six services”, in order to make every effort possible to buy food for this fall.
Supervise all localities to strictly implement the governor’s responsibility system for food safety, improve and enhance the market-based financial support mechanism, and gradually improve the operation mechanism of the high-quality and high-price grain market; supervise the China National Grain Reserve Corporation to strictly implement the minimum purchase price policy to implement the main responsibility and firmly protect the “grain cultivation” of farmers The conclusion of “sell”.
Strengthen the four guarantees of coordination and articulation, monitoring and early warning, supervision of procurement and inspection and investigation. Do a good job in securing acquisition funds and transportation capacity; closely monitor the market situation, keep an eye on key links such as acquisition progress and pricing trends; strengthen the supervision and inspection of various links, such as warehousing and storage points, procurement, quality inspection and acceptance, and seriously maintain the procurement market order to ensure autumn grain Procurement work proceeded without problems.
As we focus on improving the level of services for farmers, we will focus on the “six services” of dating services, post-production services, grain storage services, information services, portable services, and epidemic prevention and control services, so that farmers can sell grain conveniently, conveniently and safely. Sells food.
Regarding the domestic food supply problem that is of general concern to society, Wang Xiaohui, deputy director of the National Grain and Oil Information Center, noted that in 2020/2021, China’s three main grains will still exceed demand. Among them, wheat production exceeds demand by approximately 14 million tons and rice production is approximately 17 million tons. The current stocks of ration varieties of wheat and rice are the most abundant period in history, and the supply of rations has reached absolute security.
In August, the domestic cereal market was reportedly broadly stable, corn prices fell slightly, rice prices rose slightly, wheat prices stabilized, and domestic soybean prices fell.
Looking at this year’s autumn grain market situation by variety, Wang Xiaohui believes that due to the strong demand for feed and industrial consumption, and the basically consistent market expectation for corn production and the demand gap , the new corn price market this year generally maintains optimistic expectations. However, affected by a number of factors such as the recent drop in the auction transaction rate, the simultaneous supply of new corn, the increased substitution of wheat and the increase in imports of corn and its substitutes, the market Corn also has pressures that cannot be ignored.
Regarding rice, the purchase prices of early rice and medium indica rice are showing an opening and increasing trend. Market buying and selling are relatively active. The price trend for medium and medium indica rice is expected to be similar to that of early indica rice. The balance is large.
The national soybean supply is increasing and the demand is stable. The market price may fall, but it is significantly higher than the level of the same period of the previous year. In the international soybean market, the world supply of soybeans is abundant and the import source from China is guaranteed. From January to July, 55.13 million tons of soybeans were imported, an interannual increase of 17.7%. Soybean purchases in the fourth quarter are expected to accelerate; However, the epidemic situation in Brazil and the United States, which are the main soybean exporters, continues to spread, which may increase the cost of imported soybeans.
