China's grain market is facing changes after entering WTO

Introduction: according to the requirements of the WTO agricultural agreement, after China's accession to the WTO, the grain market is facing the following changes: first, to abolish the restrictions on the quantity of imports and to implement the system of tariff value The tariff quota system shall be implemented for major grain varieties such as wheat, corn, rice and oil Second, to eliminate any form of export subsidies This is undoubtedly a big challenge to China's grain export Third, the principle of general recognition of MFN treatment According to the provisions of WTO on MFN treatment, the most favorable terms reached with any member state are also extended to all Member States Fourth, we should emphasize the necessity of private enterprises In the agreement on agricultural cooperation between China and the United States, quotas should be allocated reasonably between state-owned import and export companies and private enterprises, and private enterprises should account for half of the rice tariff quotas This paves the way for private grain import and export enterprises, especially grain multinational companies, to seize the Chinese grain market, and at the same time, it gradually weakens the monopoly position of state-owned grain enterprises Fifth, the impact of low price grain on the domestic grain market According to statistics, the price of Japonica Rice in China is 40% higher than that in the international market, the price of wheat is 60% higher than that in the international market, the price of corn is 46%, and the price of soybean is 84.5% It is an indisputable fact that the price of international grain market is lower than that of domestic grain, which has a great resistance to domestic grain export Sixth, China will reduce tariffs on agricultural products from 21% of the current average tariff to 17% in 2004 Tariffs on wheat, corn, rice, soybean oil and other products outside the quota will also be reduced accordingly, which will undoubtedly increase grain imports Therefore, after China's accession to the WTO, the impact of wheat, corn, oil and grease on the domestic grain market is very strong, especially the impact of oil and grease on the domestic grain market will be greater XZB (author:) to feed Weibo to:
