The scale of land transfer for agricultural machinery is urgently supported by policy

[China Agricultural Machinery Industry News] Recently, we conducted a survey on the moderate scale operation and agricultural mechanization in the current rural land transfer, and found that although there are some good examples in the current situation, it also finds that there are some that cannot be ignored. problem.

The scale of land transfer for agricultural machinery is urgently supported by policy

Land Circulation and Agricultural Mechanization Status

Although the "Rural Land Contract Law", "Measures for the Management of the Transfer of Rural Land Contracting Management Rights" and "Opinions on Guiding the Orderly Transfer of Rural Land Management Rights to Develop Moderate Scale of Agriculture" have been implemented, land circulation has not formed market transactions, rural individuals Contracted land is basically carried out between relatives, neighbors and acquaintances. Contracting in the form of a joint household, as long as the party is a piece. Cooperatives and companies and other units contracted to contract the whole village as a unit, and the location was mainly based on the convenient transportation of land near the road.

The form of land transfer in non-professional villages is a fragmentation of circulation, which is based on the family and is not a contiguous piece. The contracting cost is lower based on not changing the original contracted land. Most of them do not sign contracts, only the transfer price. The land transfer is first of all the willing contractor and the land contractor (village committee) to negotiate the land subcontracting intention, and then negotiate with the villagers with the assistance of the village committee. Some can also obtain national policy support with advantages such as large scale. They have contracted a large area of ​​land to form a certain scale, which facilitates the contiguous operation of planting and agricultural machinery, reducing unnecessary loss of machinery. However, due to the large planting area, most of the field management is to hire temporary personnel, and there are drawbacks in plant growth management.

Survey of contracted household income after land transfer

Take Chen, a village in Yanzhuang Village, Luhe Town, Yuyang District as an example. They have three laborers, and they have transferred 60 mu of land in the village of Dayanzhuang in the town. They have subcontracted 57 mu of land in Qinggangsi Village, all of which are clay land, and the subcontracting fee is 1,000 yuan/mu. The cost of planting wheat per acre into seeds, fertilizers, machinery, etc. is 485 yuan, the yield per mu is 610 kilograms, and the price is 2.1 yuan/kg. Planting corn, seed, fertilizer, machinery 547 yuan per mu, 700 kg per mu, the price of 1.56 yuan / kg. The annual income is 39,900 yuan. Dongmou, a village in the emperor of the Gusong Office of the Fuyang District, cooperated with the people and subcontracted 591 mu of cultivated land in the Loulou Village of Dianqiang Town. The contract was contracted for 10 years, and the annual transfer fee was 1,000 yuan/mu after the autumn harvest. This year's wheat harvest is 580 kg/mu, 2.1 yuan/kg, the mu income is 1,218 yuan/mu, the corn harvest is 620 kg/mu, 1.56 yuan/kg, and the income is 967 yuan/mu. Seeds, fertilizers and machinery will be invested in 950 yuan/mu, with an annual income of 235 yuan/mu. The labor cost is about 110,000 yuan. The annual income is 28,900 yuan.

Chen’s land is not calculated for labor costs, and the calculation of labor, pesticides, irrigation (dry years), etc. is a loss. Although Dong’s land is profitable, the profit is too small. In recent years, the price of food has been declining year by year, and the income of farmers has decreased, which has seriously damped the enthusiasm of contractors and made land transfer more difficult.

Land transfer problem under agricultural mechanization technology

The implementation of the Party's various policies for benefiting farmers has pointed out the direction for the moderate scale operation of agriculture, and the state has also given strong support to the development of crop farming and agricultural machinery. In 2016, only the subsidies for the purchase of agricultural machinery in Xiangyang District amounted to 13 million yuan, and the support for farmers in the project support and other areas was strongly supported. However, at present, some existing growers of small-scale agricultural machinery are basically idle, and large-scale machinery can not meet the needs, especially in places where the economic base is weak, and agricultural machinery cannot meet the needs of agricultural production. Due to the high price of large machinery and large investment, the cost of land transfer has increased in disguise, which has affected the land transfer work to a certain extent. Therefore, it is imperative to establish and improve a full-featured intermediary service, timely release of land transfer information, and establishment of a standardized land transfer market operation mechanism and service organization.

As the cost of land circulation increases year by year (such as increasing fertilizer, machinery, and labor costs) and food prices continue to fall, the income from growing crops is very unstable. These factors directly affect the contractor's enthusiasm for land circulation. The government should give necessary guidance and appropriate support.

In addition, there are problems such as the scale of land circulation and the lack of supporting agricultural machinery. The scale of local circulation is as small as 30 to 50 mu, and there are hundreds of acres. Some farming cooperatives subcontracted thousands of mu of land. The quality and quantity of agricultural machinery directly affects the size and efficiency of land transfer. There are many small agricultural machinery in existence, which is not suitable for management after large-scale circulation. There are too few agricultural plant protection machinery, especially the technical requirements for the use of drones are high and the prices are too high. Many land contractors cannot afford to buy them. The amount of single-machine purchase subsidies for large-scale agricultural machinery equipment should be increased. It is recommended that the government introduce policies to provide special subsidies for drones and drying equipment, and reduce the contracted investment of land contractors to promote contracting enthusiasm.
