In the past, many farmers had to go out to work and give up farming because of low labor efficiency and high risk of natural disasters. However, in order to encourage farmers to actively cultivate land, the state has issued a series of policies to benefit farmers and strengthen agriculture, which can be said to be the welfare of our farmers, and several of them are subsidies for money.
I. Rice subsidies
In order to encourage farmers to actively cultivate land, reduce farmers' risk of growing grain, and increase farmers' opportunities to earn money by growing grain, Document No.1 of the Central Committee in 2023 clearly stipulated that the minimum purchase price of wheat should be increased, the minimum purchase price of rice should be reasonably determined, rice subsidies should be stabilized, and the implementation scope of full-cost insurance and planting income insurance for rice, wheat and corn should be expanded.
Second, corn and soybean production subsidies.
Corn and soybean are the main food crops. The implementation of soybean-corn strip compound planting is beneficial to the efficient use of cultivated land, encourages the planting of corn and soybeans, and improves the yield of corn and soybeans in China. The document also makes it clear that subsidies for corn and soybean producers should be increased, and full-cost insurance and planting income insurance should be implemented on a pilot basis.
Third, the purchase and application of agricultural subsidies
In order to speed up the development of agricultural modernization, improve the coverage rate of agricultural machinery, improve the efficiency of agricultural production, and minimize the cost of farmers' farming, the No.1 Document of the Central Committee in 2023 pointed out that it is necessary to improve the subsidy policy for the purchase and application of agricultural machinery and explore the subsidy method linked to workload.
