Christine
“Timely drying and safe entering the warehouse” is the last key link after the full -processing of grain production to solve the cultivation of farming rakes. At the same time, effective drying treatment is of great significance for the harvest of grain production, improving production efficiency, and improving the quality of processing. The mechanized drying development of Anhui Province has a strong momentum. At present, the province’s dryer has 13,800 units and 552,000 tons of drying capacity, ranking second in the country, second only to Jiangsu. Recently, the organizational personnel of the Agricultural and Rural Department of Anhui Province have carried out food Research on the current situation of drying mechanization, the relevant situation is as follows:
. The main characteristics of the development of grain mechanization and drying in Anhui Province
1. Increased. Anhui Province began to promote food dryers in the 1990s. In 2006, the dryer was included in the subsidy catalog of agricultural machinery purchase, which mobilized the enthusiasm of farmers’ purchase machines. The harvest period is concentrated, people’s requirements for grain quality have increased, and the demand for grain mechanization drying is more vigorous. After 2011, the amount of drying machines increased at a rate of more than 1,000 units per year. Taiwan. Under normal weather conditions, it can basically solve the problem of insufficient drying, but when encountering the weather in rainy disaster, the drying ability cannot meet the needs.
2. Wheat -producing area. In the demand for mechanized drying, climate conditions are the most important factor at present. In the rice and wheat production area of Anhui Province, the probability of rainy weather in the harvest season, the short investment recycling period of food drying equipment, the comparison of the promotion and application of the promotion and application High. From the statistics, the top five of the province’s dryers in 2018 are: 1,889 units in Liu’an, 1599 units in Luzhou, 1556 units in Wuhu City, 1427 in Bengbu City, and 1409 in Hefei; The latter five are: 34 Huaibei City, 70 Huangshan City, 166 in Suzhou City, 183 in Luzhou City, and 358 units in Fuyang. Trend.
3. The buying group is mainly cooperatives, large grain planting, and large processing households. The drying capacity of 10-30 tons is the most popular. From the perspective of the purchase group, cooperatives, grain planting grain planting, grain planting Large households and large grain processing are the main body of the purchase of dryers. The purpose of purchase is self -use and social services. According to statistics, the province’s subsidy batch processing volume of 10-20 tons of cyclic grain dryer in 2018 is 545 -30 tons of cyclic grain dryer 413 units, 366 cyclic cyclic grain dryers in batch processing, and 1666 in batch processing volume of 4-10 tons of cyclic grain dryers. The above continuous grain dryer 28 units. Among them, the proportion of dryers with a batch process of 10-30 tons accounted for over 70%, and the most popular Anhui users. On the spot, mechanized drying showed a professional development trend, and some circulation Large land volume and large orders signed large orders began to choose a group to buy batch processing 15-3 The 0 -ton dryer requires more than 10 dryers to operate 10,000 acres of land. For example, Li Houlin, a farmer in Xihu Township, Huoqiu County, has purchased 44 units. This year, 22 dryers with a batch of 30 tons have been scheduled.
4. The province’s dryer production enterprises have emerged, occupying the national market. In recent years, Anhui dryer production enterprises have emerged, occupying nearly 60 % of the country’s market share. At present, there are a total of 57 dryer manufacturers in the province. The top 4 are Zhonglian, Zhengyang, Jinxi, and Chenyu based on the output. Its products cover the national grain -producing area and exported many countries. Among them, Chenyu’s export volume is the largest. Liu’an has pushed the dryer industry in recent years. The city has 10 dryer production enterprises. In 2018, it produced nearly 4,000 dryers, accounting for nearly 1/2 of the province’s output. In the report of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs on the quality survey of grain dryers in 2018, the quality of dryers produced by Chenyu and Zhengyang’s two companies in Liu’an City were second and fourth. Agricultural machinery purchase subsidies are the most important driving force for Anhui mechanized drying and development in recent years. According to statistics, in 2018, the province subsidized 1,368 grain drying machinery, 38 enterprises in the province applied for subsidies, 1176 subsidies were subsidized, accounting for 85.96%of the total amount of grain drying machinery subsidies; subsidy funds were 46.3429 million Yuan, accounting for 82.29%of the total funds for grain drying machinery subsidies. The dryer produced by enterprises in the province is the absolute main force of the mechanized drying operation of Anhui Province.
. Existing problems
1. Drying equipment is difficult to solve. Grain drying facilities occupy a large area, a set of dryers (according to 3 sets), which requires an area of about 1,000 square meters. Although the relevant documents include drying mechanical land into the field of agricultural facilities, the transformation procedures are complicated, resulting in the hard work of grain drying mechanical facilities. In particular, farmers who are not engaged in large -scale grain production and only provide food drying services cannot be approved by the agricultural land for facilities in accordance with regulations. Difficulty in using land has become the first difficulty in restricting the development of mechanization of drying.
2. Environmental protection requires high drying costs. Due to the low cost of coal combustion, most of the used heat sources were mainly coal -fired. With the improvement of environmental protection requirements, coal -fired in many areas, and the cost of use has greatly increased. First, the equipment that previously purchased needs to be transformed or purchased for new equipment; the second is to increase the cost of mechanical manufacturing and installation according to the environmental transformation; the third is that energy, power, and biomass prices that meet environmental requirements such as natural gas, power, and biomass are required to use natural gas and electricity. High account opening fee. These costs make it difficult for users to bear it.
3. High investment at one time. Grain drying operations are high at one time, not only to buy drying equipment, but also related accessories. According to estimates, the construction of a medium -sized grain drying center requires about 2 million yuan, including the purchase of 700,000 yuan (financial subsidies with a percentage of not higher than 30%), and 1.3 million yuan in drying facilities (including soil construction, including soil construction Facilities, storage sheds, burning furnaces, unloading grain and raising food, etc.). The purchasing power of cooperatives, grain breeding households is limited, and it is difficult to invest and build a drying center.
4. Falling food prices affect purchasing power. Since 2017, grain prices have fallen sharply, and some grain households and grain cooperatives have a large range of losses. On the one hand, other quasi -customers dispel the idea of buying and wait and see; on the other hand, the old customers who are preparing to expand are also discouraged. If the price of grain continues to be sluggish, it may lead to the overall sales of the dryer industry.
5. Vicious competition in the dryer market is serious. Due to the considerable profit of the dryer and the difficulty of manufacturing technology, the threshold for entry is not high, which leads to a serious phenomenon of plagiarism and imitation of production enterprises. The quality of some enterprises is not available, the service life of the machine is low, and the drying is uneven. At the same time, there are malignant competition between enterprises, especially the price war. When bidding for government projects, it rely on low prices to win the bid, which has affected the healthy development of the entire industry.
. Suggestions
On from the perspective of resisting natural risks and ensuring food security, you need to make efforts from the market and the government to comprehensively improve the main food production area of Anhui Drying coverage to ensure emergency drying needs to face abnormal climate. It is recommended to strengthen policy creation and overall planning, solve the outstanding problems in the development of grain drying mechanization, and consolidate and improve the comprehensive production capacity of food.
1. Incorporate drying capacity into the emergency management system. Give full play to the strategic reserves of drying machinery, and explore the government purchase services and emergency compensation mechanisms of the government in the disaster weather. It is recommended to reasonably plan the grain drying service radius according to the area of grain planting and the needs of farmers, and advocate the drying of the production area to prevent it from being cozy.
2. Ensure the construction of grain drying machinery and equipment. It is recommended to implement the relevant policies for agricultural land, incorporate the land use of food drying machinery and equipment into the field of facilities agricultural land, and accelerate the progress of approval. At the same time, actively revitalize agricultural stock land, and make full use of abandoned schools, township enterprises, and office spaces for drying centers.
3. Support the transformation and upgrading of dryer manufacturers. Relying on Anhui’s first -mover advantage in the field of dryer industry, optimize the industrial structure of the dryer equipment industry, integrate resources, build a regional industrial park, and create a dry machinery industry cluster. Give financial support for qualified manufacturers.
