The real reason why I would rather be punished than sell the green reserves is not that the peasants do not cooperate, but that they do not make money by selling grain
Hello everyone, I am Xiaobian Xiao Zhang, and today I want to talk to you about a seemingly simple question with many stories behind it - why are farmers reluctant to sell green savings?
This question sounds simple, but in fact it involves deep-seated socio-economic problems. You may say, why are the peasants reluctant to sell their green reserves? Shouldn't they sell their grain as soon as possible when the harvest is good? But in fact, the reason behind the peasants' preference to be punished rather than sell their green reserves is not simple.
First of all, let's take a look at the recent policy issued by the state, the "Measures for the Management of Grain Procurement and Reserves" stipulates that the state implements unified management of grain procurement and reserves to ensure national food security. According to the provisions of the Measures, Article 39 of the Law of the People's Republic of China on Professional Farmer Cooperatives stipulates that professional farmer cooperatives may purchase, store and sell agricultural products to farmers in accordance with the law. It seems to be policy support, but in reality, farmers find that the low price of selling to cooperatives simply cannot cover their costs, let alone make money.
Secondly, the relationship between market supply and demand is also one of the reasons why farmers are hesitant. In recent years, with the migration of rural labor to cities, the decline of rural labor has led to an increase in the cost of agricultural production, while food prices have not risen significantly.
In addition, farmers' uncertainty about the future is also a factor influencing their decision-making. In the face of increasingly severe natural disasters and climate change, farmers are more inclined to keep a portion of their food reserves for emergencies because they are worried that future disasters will lead to a sharp increase in food prices.
Finally, there are some problems in the implementation of policies, such as the lack of supervision of agricultural products by some local governments, which has led to chaos in the market order, and farmers lack confidence in the market and are unwilling to sell their green savings easily.
Generally speaking, farmers are reluctant to sell their green reserves, not because they do not cooperate, but because they do not make money by selling grain, because of the imbalance between supply and demand in the market, because of uncertainty about the future, and because of problems in policy implementation. It is hoped that relevant departments can attach importance to this issue, increase policy support, provide more help and support for farmers, jointly promote the development of agriculture, and ensure national food security.
