The fertilizer reserve policy becomes clear as soon as possible

Recently, Peng Jun, from his hometown of Fuyang, Anhui, returned to Situ Town, Danyang City, Jiangsu Province, where he has been transferring land to grow grain for many years.
At present, more than 1,000 acres of wheat are in need of top dressing.
He went to the town’s agricultural material supply station to inquire about the price of chemical fertilizers.
He was surprised: Bulk urea rose to 97 yuan per 50 kilograms.
The price was only 80 yuan at the beginning of the spring last year, and it was only 73 yuan in September last year; compound fertilizer was every 50 kilograms.
The kilogram has risen by about 30 yuan.
He calculated that one crop of rice and one crop of wheat would cost 50 kilograms of urea and 100 kilograms of compound fertilizer per mu.
According to the current fertilizer prices, planting one mu of grain would cost at least 80 yuan a year.
Cheng Shengxiao, a major grain grower in Shenjiashan Village, Hefeng Town, Lishui District, Nanjing City, is also worried about rising fertilizer prices.
He had to fertilize the wheat fields around the tenth day of the first lunar month.
Before the Spring Festival, he planned to buy chemical fertilizers, but when he asked about the price of chemical fertilizers, he dismissed the idea.
In September last year, he used the Henan-produced urea for many years to sell for 95 yuan per 50 kilograms, which rose to 110 yuan at the end of January this year; compound fertilizer also rose by more than 10 yuan per 50 kilograms.
On the sixth day of the first month, he inquired again, but the price did not drop at all.
The owner of an agricultural material shop told him that the price of fertilizers could not fall right now, but would only rise.
"The price of chemical fertilizers has really risen, and the increase is amazing.
" Huang Jiankang, deputy general manager of Sunong Agricultural Chain Group, said frankly.
In September last year, the lowest price of urea produced by a company in Yixing was 1,220 yuan per ton, and the current price is 1,760 yuan per ton.
More than 500 yuan; Various brands of compound fertilizers rose 350-400 yuan per ton.
In 4 months, the increase was so big, unprecedented.
"Fertilizers are the'grain of grain' and the most important agricultural material.
The soaring price will definitely affect the income of grain farmers.
" He said.
The current price of chemical fertilizers is 60-80 yuan per ton higher than the same period last year, which is the highest price point in recent years.
Under the premise that the grain planting area remains basically unchanged, why did the price of chemical fertilizers, which had been stable, soar? Huang Jiankang explained that the price of chemical fertilizers was indeed very low in September last year, but the chemical fertilizer manufacturers suffered losses in those months, and many manufacturers stopped production as a result.
As a result of insufficient market supply, price increases are inevitable.
It should be said that the increase in fertilizer prices in the fourth quarter of last year was a recovery increase.
The price of chemical fertilizers has soared, and another reason is related to the uncertainty of the current fertilizer reserve policy.
Huang Jiankang said that in the past, the national fertilizer reserve period was from October 1 to March 31 of the following year, and the provincial fertilizer reserve period was from December 1 to May 31 of the following year.
Jiangsu Province undertakes a national fertilizer reserve of 300,000 tons and a provincial reserve of 140,000 tons.
Sunong Agricultural Material Chain Group, Huiduoli Agricultural Material Chain Co.
, Ltd.
and an agricultural material company under the Provincial Agricultural Reclamation Group undertake the reserve task.
After the fertilizer reserve policy is initiated, fertilizer manufacturers will increase their capacity and supply will be sufficient; when purchasing, reserve companies can negotiate prices with production companies.
Due to the large amount of purchases, the purchase price is cheaper; after the reserve period is over, the reserve When fertilizer enters the market, the price of fertilizer will drop every year.
Until the end of January this year, it is still unclear whether the fertilizer reserve policy will continue to be implemented.
In this context, the three major reserve companies in Jiangsu Province dare not purchase a large amount of goods, and manufacturers dare not fully start operations.
The operating rate of fertilizer manufacturers in the province is only about 51%-53%, and the supply is seriously insufficient.
Small agribusiness companies diversify their purchases and lack the right to speak in prices, so the price of chemical fertilizers has gone up all the way.
Huang Jiankang revealed that other provinces are still implementing fertilizer reserve policies, and fertilizer prices are relatively stable.
Ding Debin, chairman of Jiangsu Huiduoli Agricultural Material Chain Co.
, Ltd.
, said that according to the policies issued by the State Council, companies that undertake chemical fertilizer reserves can receive a subsidy of 48 yuan per ton of reserves and can also obtain loans for purchases.
At present, the fertilizer reserve policy is not clear, and companies cannot obtain loans and may not receive reserve subsidies.
Risks are increased, and the enthusiasm for purchasing chemical fertilizers is obviously affected.
Chemical fertilizers in Jiangsu Province cannot be self-sufficient, and are mainly purchased from Shandong, Henan, and Anhui.
The fertilizer reserve itself is like a reservoir, which can effectively prevent the price of fertilizer from fluctuating and falling.
"In the past two years, farmers' income from growing grain has declined.
As a supplier of agricultural materials, we do not want agricultural materials to increase in price.
" Ding Debin hopes that the relevant departments will clarify the reserve policy as soon as possible.
