Henan: Supply drops sharply before consumption is cold and then hot

As a major grain province in China, Henan's annual spring ploughing fertilizer supply and agricultural material reserves are listed as major priorities for "three rural" work

The demand for agricultural products has dropped

According to data released by the Henan Investigation Team of the National Bureau of Statistics recently, the total grain output in Henan in 2021 will decrease by 4.

According to Hou Qianrong, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Henan Petrochemical Association, in July last year, many places in Henan Province suffered a once-in-a-century flood disaster, which not only affected grain production, but also affected the production of chemical fertilizers in the region

"Due to the increase in the purchase price of chemical fertilizers, the dealers did not prepare much fertilizer in winter, and the demand for chemical fertilizers declined compared with the same period last year

Multi-department collaborative guarantee

Since the beginning of this year, Henan provincial government departments and agricultural production and distribution enterprises have strengthened the overall coordination of epidemic prevention and control and the supply of agricultural materials for spring ploughing to ensure that spring ploughing production does not miss the farming time

The financial department of Henan Province has given full play to the role of the financial and financial linkage mechanism, coordinated various tasks such as the guarantee of agricultural production factors in spring, risk prevention and control, guided more resources to invest in spring ploughing and preparation, and provided a series of financial guarantee measures

At the beginning of January, the epidemic situation reappeared in Xuchang, Luoyang, Zhengzhou, Anyang and other places in Henan, and the outbound transportation of chemical fertilizer enterprises in various places was hindered to some extent

　　Chen Yongtao, manager of Anhua Group's Yuzhu Fertilizer Company, told reporters that due to the large increase in fertilizer prices this year compared with last year, the terminal farmers' wait-and-see mood was obvious, resulting in low enthusiasm for dealers to purchase goods in the early stage, and low fertilizer inventory in agricultural product stores

　　"This year, wheat in many places in Henan has been affected by continuous rainfall during the sowing period.
