Rapeseed is the first milk source of vegetable oil in China, and the second largest source of feed protein in China. Moreover, rapeseed production mainly uses idle land in winter, which has the advantage of not competing with food crops and is one of the important oil crops in China. After the cancellation of the rape purchase policy, the rape production and rape planting area in China have been greatly reduced. In recent years, due to the increase of per mu yield, the domestic rapeseed output has rebounded, and in 2020, the domestic rapeseed output will reach13.8 million tons. At present, the development of rape industry in China is facing great challenges. In the context of agricultural supply-side reform, how to ensure the smooth transition of agricultural industry development is very important. It is particularly urgent to discuss the problems faced by China's rapeseed industry at present and deeply analyze the difficulties and reasons faced by China's rapeseed industry development.

With the cancellation of rape purchase policy, farmers' income from planting rape is also decreasing, and their willingness to plant rape is declining. In 20 19, the sown area of rape in China was 6.583 million hectares. At present, there are two reasons why farmers have the intention to plant rape: planting in small quantities to meet the family's demand for edible oil. Use the free time in winter to play the role of idle field. After the temporary rapeseed saving policy was replaced by the new rapeseed policy, the central subsidy decreased, the local financial burden increased, and the local government's enthusiasm for saving decreased significantly. At the same time, the interruption of the temporary storage policy of rapeseed temporarily made farmers accustomed to high-priced rapeseed sales unable to adapt, which greatly hit the enthusiasm of farmers to grow rapeseed. In addition, compared with developed countries such as Canada, the United States and Europe, the mainstream rape varieties in China still have problems such as low yield and low oil content. Due to the interests of enterprises, there are problems in the process of rape promotion, and the domestic rape seed market presents a variety of situations.

Due to the unique geographical environment, China has a vast rape planting area, which is divided into winter rape area in the south and spring rape area in the north with Qinling as the line. In winter, the planting area and yield of rape account for about 90% of the whole country, mainly concentrated in the Yangtze River basin. Sichuan, Hunan and Hubei provinces account for more than 50% of the country's rape planting area, of which Sichuan is the province with the largest rape planting area and output, and Sichuan's rape output accounts for 22% of the country. The main way of rapeseed processing in China is extrusion at local processing points. Imported rapeseed is mainly squeezed in coastal areas. Large and medium-sized processing enterprises in the mainland, which use domestic rapeseed as raw materials, suffered serious losses and greatly reduced them. Rapeseed processing is dominated by small enterprises, and the excess processing capacity is more prominent.

At present, China's rapeseed imports mainly come from Canada. Due to the diplomatic events between China and Canada and Canada's own natural disasters, rapeseed production has declined. In recent years, China's rapeseed imports fluctuated greatly, with a total of 2,383,500 tons and an import value of about 65.438+0.4 billion US dollars. Since China lifted the import quota of rapeseed in 2009, the import of rapeseed and its products has increased greatly, which has impacted the international competitiveness of rapeseed industry in China. The processing efficiency of imported rapeseed is much higher than that of domestic rapeseed. Therefore, rapeseed processing enterprises in the main producing areas such as the Yangtze River Basin are in trouble, which is not conducive to the overall competitiveness of rapeseed processing industry. In addition, due to the insufficient scale and quantity of land transfer, it is an obvious fact that the mechanization of rape planting in China is low, which directly leads to the production cost of rape in China being much higher than the import price.
