Food security, a topic that cannot be ignored

Introduction: China has entered the WTO, and its impact on the grain market will be gradually reflected However, it is necessary for all Chinese to bear in mind that no matter how low the food prices in foreign markets are, the food problem of more than one billion Chinese people will be solved by themselves for a long time It is only a dream to participate in the adjustment of international food market and feed Chinese people with foreign food This leads to the topic that China must establish its own food security system Not only to build, but also to be fast, time waits for me How to establish food security system? At least four aspects should be included First, it is the key to adhere to the "rice bag" provincial governor responsibility system Second, in the main production areas, we should adhere to the open purchase of farmers' surplus grain according to the protection price Third, we need to adapt to the situation of China's accession to the WTO and improve the grain regulation system Fourth, establish a grain reserve system and improve emergency response capacity With China's accession to the WTO, the issue of grain has become the hottest topic in a period of time Has the grain of our country passed the customs? As China gradually opens its door to the world, is it safe as food related to China's national economy and people's livelihood? This is a big topic worthy of consideration by the whole Chinese people FWG China's grain is basically self-sufficient, unstable without agriculture and chaotic without grain, which has been proved by the development of human society and history Grain is not only a general food commodity, but also a special commodity What is "special"? Because it is related to national economy and people's livelihood, social development and stability, and national security The issue of food is not only an economic one, but also a major political one In recent years, with the development of market economy, the state's investment in agricultural production has gradually increased, and the grain production and supply have improved year by year China has developed from a lack of supply in the past to a surplus of supply and demand balance, and some major production areas have surplus This indicates that the supply and demand of China's grain production has changed from the seller's market to the buyer's market, and China's grain has entered the stage of basic balance and inter annual fluctuation FWG based on this situation, since 1999, the State Council has proposed to adjust the agricultural planting structure on the premise of stabilizing the grain planting area in the whole country In the plain area, grain is the main crop, and grain and economic crops are both developed to improve the planting efficiency Conversion of farmland to forest in mountainous areas and grassland to grass This policy soon achieved results China's agricultural economy began to develop from a single grain growing economy to a multi economic one It can be said that at present, the whole country is immersed in the optimistic mood that China's food has passed the customs, and Chinese people have already had food to eat In particular, the leaders of some grass-roots cities, counties and townships are devoting their main energy to the development of township enterprises, and the food problem is gradually forgotten FWG food problem should be alarmed Has China's food really passed the customs? I'm afraid the answer is not that simple FWG after a long-term struggle, our socialist China has solved the problem of food and clothing for more than 1 billion people, which is one of the symbols of our proud struggle However, we should be more aware that China's cultivated land is decreasing every year and its population is increasing every year According to the information provided by the relevant departments, in 10 years, Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, Sichuan, Qinghai, Xinjiang and other provinces and regions in the western part of China will convert over 87 million mu of farmland In about 10 years, the central and eastern parts of China will convert one third of the cultivated land to economic crops In addition to the land for urban development, the cultivated land area in China will gradually decline From another point of view, China's agriculture has a low ability to resist natural disasters and a high production cost Many places still use the traditional way of "one cow per ten mu of land, one wife and one child hot Kang head", relying on the sky to eat, and in case of drought, flood, insect damage, etc., the grain output will be greatly reduced According to statistics, in 2001, the output of summer grain in China was lower than that of the previous year From the perspective of per capita grain, China's per capita annual grain share is about 400 kg, which is close to the world food crisis line of 370 kg per capita The situation is absolutely not optimistic FWG based on the above situation, if we don't give correct guidance to ensure the stability of cultivated land area and grain output, then people's food is the foundation of national economy, these wise sayings will become a dead letter, and our food security will be worrying The establishment of food security system by FWG is bound to lead to China's accession to the WTO, which will gradually reflect the impact on the food market However, it is necessary for all Chinese to bear in mind that no matter how low the food prices in foreign markets are, the food problem of more than one billion Chinese people will be solved by themselves for a long time It is only a dream to participate in the adjustment of international food market and feed Chinese people with foreign food This leads to the topic that China must establish its own food security system Not only to build, but also to be fast, time waits for me How to establish FWG food security system? At least four aspects should be included First, it is the key to adhere to the "rice bag" provincial governor responsibility system In order to ensure the sustained and stable increase of grain production and the long-term and stable development of grain market, the state implemented the "rice bag" provincial governor responsibility system in 1995, which clearly defined the responsibilities of local governments in the total grain balance, which must be implemented unswervingly Governments at all levels should take overall responsibility for local food security In the region, they should divide agricultural production layout according to natural, geographical, social and economic factors, divide agricultural production areas, give full play to their own advantages, and establish and stabilize commodity grain bases As the chief executive of a local government, it is the most basic condition to inspect its achievements to ensure that the people in the region have food to eat and food to eat Second, in the main production areas, we should adhere to the open purchase of farmers' surplus grain according to the protection price The basic starting point of the reform of grain circulation system is that the main production areas purchase the surplus grain of farmers according to the protection price, so that the state can not only control the source of grain, but also protect the economic interests of farmers The grain sector should actively open up the purchase of surplus grain of farmers, at the same time, it should explore the market-oriented management mode of grain purchase In the current situation of the relative structural surplus of grain production and the diversification of consumer demand for grain, it should adhere to the policy of high quality and good price, comply with the objective laws of grain production and consumption, and establish flexible according to the requirements of the socialist market economy Various ways of purchase create a good environment for food security Third, we need to adapt to the situation of China's accession to the WTO and improve the grain regulation system After China's accession to the WTO, it is difficult to maintain the situation of domestic grain market closed to the outside world Therefore, we should make full use of domestic and foreign resources to achieve food security on the basis of domestic Food free trade can not change the basic characteristics of China's food supply based on domestic supply, "based on domestic" is unshakable, but we should combine the balance of food supply and demand with the trend of expanding and deepening international trade of food to achieve the spatial expansion of food security It can be predicted that with the rapid development of China's economy, China will become a stable buyer in the international grain market We must establish a relatively stable grain purchasing base in the world, strengthen the monitoring of grain import risks, and control the dependence of grain foreign trade within an acceptable range Fourth, establish a grain reserve system and improve emergency response capacity Grain Reserve is the reserve material power held by the state and local governments, and is one of the most direct and effective means for macro-control of grain commodity circulation At the critical moment, we should rely on Grain Reserve to stabilize the market and meet the supply As you know, the west, led by the United States, often regards food as a strategic weapon If we tie the problem of our people's eating to the pants and belts of foreigners, it will inevitably bring some political conditions, which foreign countries have learned This also confirms the importance of establishing grain reserves At present, in China, the central grain reserve system has been relatively perfect, while the construction of local, especially rural grain reserve system has not been fully in place This requires us to seize the opportunity to gradually establish and improve grain storage facilities, establish local and rural grain reserves, and form a reserve system at the central, local and rural levels in accordance with the overall grain circulation scale of the country and the region, so as to meet the needs of grain supply in an emergency The problem of food security in FWG is a topic that can not be ignored We must not take it lightly The more open the market, the more developed the economy, the more attention we should pay to the problem of food security, the more we should study the food market, and the more we should deepen the reform of the grain circulation system There is no doubt about that Fwg
