General Office of the Ministry of Agriculture issues notice to push for implementation of support policies for the agricultural product processing industry
Report from this website In recent years, the CPC Central Committee, the State Council and relevant departments have formulated a series of policies to support the development of “agriculture, rural areas and farmers” as well as small, medium and micro enterprises, covering many aspects such as fiscal policy, taxation, finance, investment, insurance, science and technology, land use and electricity use, which have effectively promoted the development of the agricultural product processing industry. However, in some localities the support policies have not been implemented thoroughly, and the effects of the policies have not been brought into full play. In order to further promote the implementation of the relevant support policies and promote the sustained and healthy development of the agricultural product processing industry, the General Office of the Ministry of Agriculture recently issued the Notice on Further Promoting the Implementation of Support Policies for the Agricultural Product Processing Industry, requiring agricultural product processing management departments at all levels to actively promote the implementation of the existing support policies and promote the sustained and healthy development of the agricultural product processing industry.
The Notice points out that support policies for the agricultural product processing industry are an important part of the central government's policies to strengthen, benefit and support agriculture, and are also an important part of the national policy measures to stabilize growth, adjust the structure, promote reform and improve people's livelihood. These support policies create a favorable external environment for the development of the agricultural product processing industry and put forward effective measures to solve the problems and difficulties existing in industrial development, with strong direction, targeting, precision and operability. Implementing these support policies well is conducive to safeguarding the authority of policies and the credibility of the government, mobilizing the enthusiasm of enterprises, cooperatives and farmers, stimulating the vitality of enterprises and promoting the sustained and healthy development of the agricultural product processing industry. This not only plays an important role in farmers' employment and income increase, agricultural value-added and efficiency improvement, and rural prosperity and stability, but also plays a positive role in the stable development of the economy and society and the improvement of people's livelihood. Agricultural product processing management departments at all levels should, from a strategic and overall perspective, deepen their understanding of the importance and urgency of implementing the support policies for the agricultural product processing industry, and persist in making the promotion of policy implementation an important measure to resolutely implement the decisions and arrangements of the central government and promote the development of the agricultural product processing industry, and grasp it firmly and achieve results.
The Notice requires that agricultural product processing management departments at all levels should effectively enhance their sense of responsibility and urgency, and on the basis of comprehensively sorting out, accurately grasping and deeply understanding the support policies for the agricultural product processing industry, highlight key points, combine with reality, and promote the effective implementation of the support policies in a targeted manner. They should conscientiously perform the functions of planning guidance, supervision and management, and coordination services, put the promotion of the implementation of support policies in an important position, place it on the agenda, and incorporate it into performance assessment targets. They should actively coordinate policies of various agricultural departments in terms of talent teams, raw material bases, technical equipment, market brands, basic construction, fiscal budgets, foreign economy and trade, quality standards, and subsidies for the purchase of agricultural machinery, and strive for more support. They should improve work initiative, actively coordinate and closely cooperate with relevant departments such as finance, development and reform, land and resources, industry and information technology, taxation, finance and insurance, effectively implement the existing support policies, and promptly report the situation; jointly carry out supervision and inspection with relevant departments, actively promote the implementation of the existing support policy measures, and form a strong joint force to promote policy implementation.
The Notice emphasizes that it is necessary to actively carry out the creation of policies for the agricultural product processing industry. It is necessary to explore new ways of using fiscal funds to leverage and guide financial capital, social capital and industrial and commercial capital to support the development of the agricultural product processing industry. It is necessary to actively strive for support policies from local governments, focus on important areas such as primary processing, deep processing and comprehensive utilization of by-products, and focus on important links such as research, development and application of generic technologies and facilities and equipment, dedicated raw material bases, comprehensive utilization, leading enterprises, park construction, layout of main production areas and brand building, strive to achieve new breakthroughs in policies concerning fiscal policy, taxation, finance, insurance, investment, land use, electricity use and water use, and gradually establish and improve the support policy system for the agricultural product processing industry. At the same time, it is necessary to vigorously create a public opinion environment for the implementation of the support policies. It is necessary to give full play to the advantages of news media and online platforms, adopt various forms, and carry out policy publicity that is easy to understand, simple and clear, and well received, so as to ensure that policies are open and transparent, and enable the vast number of processing enterprises, cooperatives and farmers to understand the support policies for the agricultural product processing industry, become familiar with the content of the policies, understand the operating procedures and enjoy the relevant rights.
