The latest news on the 2022 grain planting subsidy policy: How much is the grain planting subsidy per acre? Who are the recipients of the subsidy?

Starting from 2021, the central government began to allocate actual funds for grain-growing farmers to local governments, and this year's actual subsidy amount for grain-growing farmers is 10 billion yuan. This is good news for villagers who farm in rural areas. They can receive certain subsidies, but the subsidy standards are different in each region, and farmers receive about a few dozen yuan or a hundred yuan per mu. Below, Dongguan editor Feng Chao brings you the latest news on the 2022 grain planting subsidy policy. How much is the grain subsidy per acre? Who are the recipients of the subsidy?

1. The latest policy on grain subsidies in 2022

The latest news about the 2022 grain subsidies is that on May 22, the central government allocated 10 billion yuan to once again issue a one-time agricultural subsidy to actual grain-growing farmers. What needs to be noted here is that the central government’s actual grain-growing farmers’ subsidies are issued in response to the rise in agricultural inputs prices in the past two years, and farmers have to buy agricultural inputs such as fertilizers and pesticides when growing crops. How can the yield be increased if fertilizer is not applied when farming? Therefore, in order to compensate for the economic pressure brought to farmers by the rising prices of agricultural inputs, subsidies are issued to actual grain-growing farmers, mainly to cope with the rising prices of agricultural inputs. Other subsequent grain subsidies will continue to be issued, and other subsidies will not be cancelled due to the issuance of subsidies to actual grain-growing farmers. The people can rest assured about this.

1.2022Why did the central government issue actual subsidies to grain-growing farmers?

This is mainly due to the rise in prices of agricultural inputs, which has also led to increased expenses for farmers in the process of growing crops. If a one-time agricultural input subsidy is not issued, fewer and fewer farmers will grow grain, and their enthusiasm for growing grain will not be increased.

2. How much is the actual grain planting subsidy per acre in 2022?

The actual standard of grain planting subsidy per mu in 2022 will be determined by each region based on relevant circumstances. In principle, the subsidy standard within a county should be unified. For example, in 2021, the actual grain planting subsidy was only a dozen yuan per mu in some areas, while in others it was as high as hundreds of yuan per mu. The following is the actual one-time subsidy standards for grain farmers in some regions in 2021:

1. Fucheng County, Hebei Province: According to the data verified and reported by each township, the actual area of ​​​​a one-time subsidy for grain-growing farmers in Fucheng County in 2021 was 544,934.1766 acres, the subsidy standard was 16.17 yuan per acre, and the total subsidy amount was 8,811,585.64 yuan.

2. Yaozhou District, Tongchuan, Shaanxi: The Yaozhou District Finance Bureau promptly allocated 3.873 million yuan in one-time subsidy funds to actual grain-growing farmers in 2021. The funds were paid to actual grain-growing farmers through the one-card system for fiscal subsidies at a rate of 13 yuan per mu.

3. Yan'an, Shaanxi: The subsidy standard is not less than 10 yuan per mu. In principle, a unified subsidy standard is implemented within the county.

3. Who are the actual grain-growing farmers who will receive subsidies in 2022?

The recipients of the 2022 actual grain-growing farmers subsidy are the actual grain growers who actually bear the cost of rising agricultural inputs prices, including farmers who use their own contracted land to grow grain, large households that transfer land to grow grain, family farms, farmers' cooperatives, agricultural enterprises and other new agricultural operators, as well as individuals and organizations that provide socialized services throughout the entire process of grain planting, cultivation and harvesting. The subsidy funds to farmers will continue to be distributed in a timely and full manner through the one-card (discount) pass and other means.

All in all, this is the second time this year that the central government has allocated funds to subsidize actual grain-growing farmers. The grain planting standards are different in each province, city, district and county, but the subsidy standards within a county are unified. The recipients of subsidies are mainly those who actually grow grain, that is, whoever grows land can get the grain planting subsidy.
