Qi Zheng did not exaggerate the threat that Jiagu faces in the future. Look at 'Mao's line, Chinese, and net

In the case of soybeans alone, the five multinationals control almost all aspects of the global soybean supply chain.

Look at their names

Monsanto, an American company, is the world's largest seed company;

AD, an American company, is the world's largest soybean processor and one of the world's largest agricultural traders and processors;

Bunge, an American company, is a leading global soybean exporter and one of the world's largest agricultural trading and processing companies;

Cargill, an American company, is the world's largest trader in bulk products;

Louis Dreyfus Company, a French company, is also one of the world's largest traders in bulk commodities.

In terms of seeds and other raw material inputs needed for production, Monsanto dominates, while in cultivation, trade and processing, the latter four companies of the four major grain merchants, abbreviated as ABCD, dominate.

Qi Zheng simply drew a map of the world, pointed to the outlines of each country and said to Tian Renli: "On the surface, it seems that Brazil, the United States and Argentina control the export end of soybeans, and the two major economies of China and Europe occupy the soybean import end. ”

"But in fact, the trade of soybeans from the export end to the import end is not controlled by these countries, but by these multinational grain merchants. ”

Qi Zheng also added to the map the distribution of the power of multinational grain merchants: "Multinational corporations have branches, subsidiaries and affiliates all over the world, and they control exports in exporting countries and imports in importing countries, and a large number of transactions only occur within multinational grain enterprises, that is, between branches." ”

Finally, the soybean trade roadmap is marked on the map: "The entry and exit of the market at both ends of the market are all operated by themselves, which makes the price of soybeans on the world market largely a matter that can be decided within the company." ”

Multinational corporations dominate the soybean trade because they can influence both how much soybeans are sold and how much soybeans are bought from the soybean market.

"The farmers who deal with these predators downstream, and the soybean processing businesses in the midstream are not much better – everyone can be hurt at any time by the price manipulation of these companies. ”

Speaking of this, Qi Zheng spread his hands, "Our Jiagu branch in the United States can be regarded as having a certain strength, but after looking around, I can't find the slightest opportunity to meddle in the soybean trade." ”

Although these grain merchants are not directly involved in soybean cultivation, they are almost invincible in their control of railways, roads, ports, warehouses, etc., by issuing production loans and building transportation facilities.

Similarly, they have a wealth of real-time information on supply and demand trends in various markets, and their internal trading markets are not open to the public.

This is out of reach for independent traders, especially those from developing countries.

If independent traders existed before the arrival of TNCs, the latter could quickly crush and swallow up the former;

"At home, I am only optimistic about the national grain group, and with the support of the state, it should be able to have the strength to fight. Qi Zheng finally said, although it was only the power of a battle, I don't know when I want to counterattack.

But this is also a national characteristic, although it has been repeatedly slandered by foreign countries with colored glasses, but the system of concentrating on big things at least ensures that we will not be completely wiped out in a certain field.

At this point, Tian Renli looked at the dense distribution map of forces and trade roadmap drawn by Qi Zheng, and couldn't laugh anymore.

He looked solemn.

In China, before the National Grain Group proposed the development model of "whole industry chain", although it knew that international grain merchants were very strong, they never fully and intuitively experienced how strong international grain merchants were.

He has no doubt that Qi Zheng will exaggerate the strength of multinational companies - if there is any one who knows their strength best in China, it must be Jiagu, who has a proud record in the US soybean futures market.

Therefore, he can better understand why Qi Zheng said, "I have to prepare a few more back roads", the root of his life is held in the hands of others, even he may not be at ease.

It is indeed urgent to support domestic soybeans.

Standing on the slopes of the Jiusan Reclamation Area in the Songnen Plain, a state-owned farm known as the "Green Soybean Capital of China", looking into the distance, the vast and lush "sea of soybeans" and the clear blue sky are divided by the horizon, and the soybeans more than half a person tall are churning green waves, indicating that a good harvest is likely to be there this year.

Now that soybeans have entered the summer management period, there is not much farm work in the field, but Tian Renli still comes to the field from time to time to have a look. "Every time I see soybeans that are about to be harvested, I feel a sense of satisfaction. ”

"There were a few heavy rains in the past few days, but fortunately it didn't have much impact. Tian Renli took Qi Zheng and introduced the situation of the farm, "This year is generally smooth and rainy, and it should be a bumper harvest year." ”

Tian Renli told Qi Zheng that the farm has achieved initial mechanized planting and unified management, and the yield per mu is expected to reach 200 kilograms. The goal for the future is to increase the agricultural mechanization rate to more than 95%, and to achieve mechanization from sowing, field management, pesticide control to harvesting.

Located in the western part of Hei Province and one of the four major black soil belts in the world, Jiusan Reclamation District is one of the most important soybean producing areas in Hei Province. Its total soybean output is 10,000 tons, which is equivalent to 7 of the total soybean output of Hei Province and 3 of the total national output.

The biggest lure of soybeans for capital is that it is suitable for capital-intensive large-scale cultivation. Whether it is in the northeast of our country or in other places, what you see when you go to the soybean producing areas is often an endless field operation.

"Our northeast is a good place, with a vast area and fertile land. The black soil is a unique treasure given to us by nature, and the so-called 'one or two soil and two oils' is too suitable as a big granary of China. Tian Renli said proudly.

According to Tian Renli, in this fertile black soil, the average yield of domestic soybeans per mu is not much different from that of American soybeans, "Our soybeans are no worse than American soybeans." ”

"Of course, while state-owned farms can achieve high yields per mu through large-scale, standardized planting, the level of soybean cultivation of ordinary farmers varies widely. Tian Renli reluctantly faced the reality, "Due to the different varieties and different quality of soybeans planted by farmers, the phenomenon of mixed planting and mixed harvest is serious, resulting in the overall quality of domestic soybeans is low." ”

Soybean yield of variety A is high, and soybean protein content of variety B is high, but mixed planting and mixed harvesting of two kinds of soybean will lead to the oil yield and protein content of soybean are not good.

"In order to achieve high yield and high quality, it is necessary to break through the constraints of many factors......
