Half of the oil processing enterprises in Hei Province have stopped work or production......"

"The last piece of pure land in the domestic soybean and soybean oil market is facing a big change......

"Domestic non-GMO soybeans and imported GMO soybeans are waging a war......"

If you look at the above news headlines, probably everyone will think that this is the prelude to the imminent fall of domestic soybeans.

Are soybeans important?

Compared with the staple food, it seems that soybeans are a grain and oil crop that has been abandoned by the state for self-sufficiency.

But soybeans are never just a simple oil - in addition to edible and soybean oil, there are many food industries that need to add soybean flour, and soybean meal after soybean oil is a common feed, and it is also widely used in the military field. It is related to our meat, eggs and milk, and is closely related to the lives of the people.

- Only from the perspective of the state can we understand the helplessness of this decision.

"China imported more than 40 million tons of soybeans last year, which is converted into an area of 500 million mu that needs to be planted, and it is impossible for us to take out so much from 1.8 billion mu of arable land to plant oil crops, so we can only face up to the fact that oil must rely on imports. Hu Qiyuan, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, who led the team, undoubtedly looked at the problem from the national level.

But doesn't that mean that domestic soybeans can be abandoned?

Hehe...... Even the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), which has a lot of opportunities, has to maintain and maintain a certain amount of state-owned soybean production as one of its strategies to ensure the country's grain and oil security – just like having the most complete industrial system in China, whether you are strong or not is one thing, but whether you have it is another.

Of course, if it can maintain its existence and have strong vitality and competitiveness, it will be the most in line with the expectations of the country.

When the research team of the National Development and Reform Commission turned its attention to Jiagu Group in the main soybean producing areas of Northeast China, their expectations were met!

......

At the Jiagu soybean planting base in Hailun City, Black Province, large tractors are throwing organic fertilizer in large soybean fields.

The tractor driver also talked like an agricultural expert: "Fertilization is like a human meal, you have to eat at the time of the meal, and you have to eat the nutrients you need, too much is not good." I need to get the right amount of fertilizer, the right timing, the right variety of fertilizer, and the right farm machinery for fertilization......"

Under the promotion of Jiagu agriculture, model cultivation, soil testing and formula fertilization, and large agricultural machinery cultivation are used...... Compared with the scientific soybean farming model in the United States, it is not new for the soybean planting base in Jiagu to yield more than 210 kilograms per mu, which is much better than the average planting level of 179 kilograms per mu in the United States last year.

"If someone else says that the domestic soybean industry is like a child who can't be weaned, they should really be allowed to see Jiagu's achievements!" said Hu Qiyuan, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission.

Zhou Meng shook his head and said: "The domestic soybean that has been shouting to be protected is actually a low-tech product, with low yield and high price, and it is okay to protect it for a day or two, a year or two." But to protect it for five years and ten years, I guess you have to dream?"

"The real promising domestic soybean has to be Jiagu, which cultivates soybean varieties with high yield and high protein, and ......produces them on a large scale."

Hu Qiyuan is no longer surprised by Zhou Meng's "Jiagu Blowing", the key is that people are not wrong.

The yield level of soybeans depends largely on the scale, even if the domestic yield of about 120 kilograms per mu of ordinary soybeans, in fact, after large-scale planting, there is a lot of room for improvement, not to mention the excellent varieties cultivated by Jiagu.

Therefore, since the "soybean crisis", Jiagu has vigorously supported domestic soybeans, promoted large-scale soybean planting through the establishment of cooperatives, and changed the backward soybean industry mechanism of "farmers are scattered and enterprises are alone", which is regarded as a new starting point for the revitalization of domestic soybeans.

In stark contrast to the national grain reserves, it is the attitude of soybean farmers: "In the past, when I signed an order for planting soybeans, I wanted to sell the beans after they were sold, and they always couldn't sell them at a high price." Now we have signed an order with Jiagu, and the purchase price is higher than the market price, and the sales and price are guaranteed. ”

Order agriculture also forces soybean farmers to change to "planting well", "We all plant according to the standards and quality of Jiagu, and serve like 'golden beans', but we can't plant whatever we want!"

"In the past few years, I have made money growing soybeans for Jiagu, and this year I have encouraged more people to plant soybeans, and everyone's enthusiasm is back!"

According to the research team, although because of large-scale and mechanized planting, Jiagu has an advantage over the national grain storage cost in terms of storage costs, but it still cannot offset the soybean purchase price of Jiagu that is much higher than the national reserve price.

So the question is, Jiagu collects and stores 5 million tons of domestic soybeans every year, and there is no financial subsidy, shouldn't it be under more pressure?

......

"The idea of revitalizing domestic soybeans through financial subsidies will not work, and the real way out lies in industrial upgrading!" Qi Zheng, who slipped over at some point, guided the research team of the National Development and Reform Commission to have an in-depth understanding of the soybean industry chain in Jiagu.

Compared with the national grain reserves, which only collect and store and leave the warehouse, Jiagu's soybean industry chain is much more interesting!

"If you squeeze oil with imported genetically modified soybeans, it is difficult for domestic soybeans to win. But if the advantages of domestic soybeans in terms of protein content are tapped, this contradiction will be solved. Qi Zheng took the research team to visit the largest soybean deep processing and deep processing base in China established by Jiagu in Hei Province.

There are two types of non-GMO soybeans that Jiagu promotes planting, high-fat soybeans and high-protein soybeans. At present, it is high-protein soybeans that are grown on a large scale in China.

Thanks to the soybean variety breeding cooperation with the Black Provincial Academy of Agricultural Sciences, coupled with the spiritual array covering the breeding base, the soybean cultivated by Jiagu can be called the best among non-genetically modified soybeans - the Jiagu soybean with round and full grains and thin and yellow skin is rich in oil, protein and amino acids, and enjoys a good reputation in the industry.

Jiagu's high-protein soybean processed products are not primary products such as tofu and soy milk.

"Our high-protein soybeans are mainly processed into high value-added products such as edible protein concentrate and lecithin. The former is widely used in meat products, surimi products, baked goods, baby food, etc., and the price per ton is still in short supply; the latter is listed as a safe food additive and emulsifier by countries around the world, and is widely used in medicine, food, chemical industry, light industry and other fields, with a price of up to 13,000 yuan per ton. Qi Zheng introduced.

Many people don't know that Jiagu Grain and Oil has become an important supplier of well-known food companies such as Shuanghui, Uni-President and Nestle.

In order to extend the industrial chain of soybean processing, Jiagu invested 500 million yuan to build a global soybean processing R&D center in Hei Province three years ago, and then the annual R&D expenses are 1-200 million yuan.

The most important thing is that under this industrial model, the final output value of domestic soybeans is as high as 5,500 yuan tons, which can be increased by 1,500 yuan per ton compared with the current price of about 4,000 yuan tons of domestic soybeans.

"If China's annual 15 million tons of domestic soybeans can achieve intensive processing, the achievable added value will be as high as 22.5 billion yuan. Domestic soybeans do not need to compete with imported soybeans in price, nor do they have to worry about farmers not being motivated to plant, and they will not burden the national finances. Zhou Meng in the research team muttered to himself.

Qi Zheng believes that "at present, the demand for intensive processing of non-GMO soybeans in China alone is more than 5 million tons per year, and with the continuous improvement of consumers' requirements for quality of life, this demand will further increase......

“......”

The NDRC research team found that it had made a big mistake - it no longer makes sense to compare the national grain reserves with Jiagu, at least in the soybean business, the two are not at the same level at all.

Although Jiagu's standing soybean reserves are only 3 million tons, the rotation turnover is very fast, and the real strength of Jiagu lies in "hiding beans in the ground".

In the past five years, Jiagu has quietly revived domestic soybeans by supporting domestic soybeans and promoting the upgrading of the domestic soybean industry!

Half of the soybean oil processing enterprises in the black province have stopped production?

- That's right. Because the soybean oil processing capacity in Hei Province accounts for 110% of the country's processing capacity, after Jiagu promoted the upgrading of the soybean industry, the serious surplus situation has become more and more obvious, which is a sign of facing consolidation.

Farmers still have soybeans from last year that have not been sold, and even some soybeans from 07 are still in their hands?

- That's right. But that's all because it's not high-quality soybeans, and to put it more clearly, it's definitely not a soybean cooperative that has not yet joined Jiagu.

The real status quo is –

"In the past five years, the downward trend of soybean production in Hei Province has been completely reversed, the planting area has risen instead of falling, and the output has also increased from 5 million tons to 6.5 million tons in the same period. Behind this, it is supported by more than half of the soybean farmers who have joined the Jiagu Soybean Cooperative. Qi Zheng said proudly.

Compared with the original time and space, the domestic soybean industry has not formed a joint force, and in the end, the entire industry is in a state of self-destruction, even after the state increases support, it is difficult to say that it is competitive.

In this time and space, there is Jiagu "inside and outside", and the situation is not only a hundred times better?

The research team of the National Development and Reform Commission naturally did not know the "earth-shaking" of the two time and space, but they could all see one thing: "The train runs fast, and it all depends on the front of the locomotive" - it is Jiagu who carries the banner of reviving domestic soybeans.

It is Jiagu that has strengthened the construction of soybean production bases, supported soybean farmers to carry out large-scale production, and improved the production efficiency of domestic soybeans!

It is Jiagu that has strengthened the breeding of soybean varieties, focusing on the selection and promotion of high-protein soybean and edible soybean varieties with strong market demand, and finding the correct positioning of the domestic soybean market!

It was Jiagu and Jiusan Oil that rejected the acquisition and merger of foreign-funded grain merchants in Hei Province, and maintained the last "pure land" of China's soybean industry!

Even Jiagu promoted domestic soybeans to establish a brand in the world!

"I heard that Japan and South Korea have placed a large order for non-GMO soybeans in Jiagu?" Hu Qiyuan, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, was impressed by the offer and took the opportunity to ask.

"That's right, in fact, not only Japan and South Korea, but also the European Union also has the intention of importing China's soybeans. Qi Zheng said lightly.

Non-GMO soybeans are hot in international markets such as the European Union, Japan and South Korea. The island nation alone needs 5 million tonnes a year, while in South Korea, a pound of non-GMO soybeans can be sold for more than 20 yuan. However, these countries also have high requirements for soybeans – high quality, green certification, geographical indications – that were previously lacking in domestic soybeans and had to stay domestically.

But with the ecological cultivation of Jiagu, none of this is a problem. Moreover, the pure natural non-GMO soybeans cultivated by Jiagu have a higher protein content, and they are naturally of high quality and high price - the price of domestic soybeans exported to Japan and South Korea is 1,000 yuan per ton higher than that of ordinary soybeans.

The research team of the National Development and Reform Commission remembered that no one was willing to accept the soybeans that no one was willing to accept in the national grain reserves, and couldn't help but "tsk" in unison, really people are better than people, more than dead people!

And Qi Zheng was not satisfied, he asked Hu Qiyuan: "Director Hu, I don't know how long it will take for us to apply for the construction of Fuyuan Port Grain Terminal and break through the bottleneck of 'Russian grain return' to be approved, which is an important part of building Hei Province into the world's non-GMO soybean production, processing, trade distribution center and the world's non-GMO soybean spot and futures delivery center......

There is an unwritten rule or consensus in Black Province that the oil processing enterprises in the province use non-GMO soybeans, which used to be locally produced, and now, the import of non-GMO soybeans from the Russian Far East has surged!

Hu Qiyuan instantly put the comparison of national grain reserves behind, and said with full interest: "Well, it should be about to be approved, speaking of which, you really dare to think about it......"
