Premier Zhu Rongji on soybeans

Introduction: the following is what Premier Zhu Rongji said when he mentioned the Sino US soybean trade at today's press conference Zhu Rongji: I am more tired than I was in 1998 I don't know what your comments are But I think it's been four years People are always old However, I think that in the past four years, I have been working tirelessly on my government's work I think this government has done a lot in the past four years, especially in overcoming the Asian financial crisis, and taking advantage of this opportunity, we have developed ourselves unprecedentedly Of course, I have a lot to do What's the biggest headache for me? I have pain all day long If you say the most headache, I think at present, it is mainly to increase the income of farmers Because in the past four years, the salaries of civil servants have almost doubled, while the prices have not increased The state-owned enterprises have been out of difficulties in three years, and the wages of many of their employees have been greatly increased Due to the improvement of the social security system, retired workers have also improved their treatment I think they are very happy However, in comparison, the income of 800 million farmers has not been raised rapidly, and some areas have declined In recent years, the Chinese government has made great efforts to solve this problem In my report on the work of the government, a lot of space has been devoted However, it is not easy to solve this problem The most fundamental measure is to rely on agricultural cultivation or the adjustment of industrial structure, because China's current food supply has exceeded the demand, there are more and more agricultural products, and what to plant If prices do not go up, farmers' incomes will not increase Especially after China's accession to the WTO, American agricultural products still need to land in China in large quantities, and the price of agricultural products in China still needs to fall Isn't it very difficult for farmers? This is my headache Do you know that the soybean exported from the United States to China is equivalent to the total output of China: 15 million tons When we want to adopt a genetically modified agricultural product management approach and implement the approach adopted by many countries in the world, your leaders in the United States will come to talk to us about the issue of soybeans, which will affect our billion dollar export of the United States You should be careful But for the steel products you export to China, you announced an 8% to 30% tax increase, which will affect the fact that China's 350 million US dollars steel cannot be exported to the United States So, can I care about our steel as much as American leaders care about soybeans? Can I raise taxes on soybeans by 30%? I'll go back to the headache problem I think although the headache, it will be solved Because there are 500 billion jin of grain in stock, I can open a warehouse to help the poor This is a policy of returning farmland to forest, grassland and lake, which will gradually increase the income of farmers At the same time, we are also implementing the policy of changing rural fees into taxes to reduce the burden of farmers Therefore, I believe that these measures can alleviate the current situation of farmers' difficulties After a period of time, the industrial structure of agriculture will be adjusted, and the income of farmers will increase Of course, it will take some time thank you (author:) share to feed Weibo share to:
