strengthening the need to support the development of family farms -尊龙官网

ma ying, deputy director of the ministry of agriculture's milk office, pointed out at the 7th hohhot dairy development international forum: china's dairy industry is in a critical period of transformation and upgrading, and the country will continue to support the construction of large-scale pastures. this year's support funds will increase from 500 million to 1 billion. strengthening support for family farms and dairy farmers cooperatives. since 2013, in order to further improve the production level of dairy industry and increase the income of dairy farmers, the ministry of agriculture has increased the implementation of the dairy industry policy and adopted the following five specific measures:

first, accelerate the standardization of large-scale breeding of dairy cows and expand the base of high-quality milk sources. the ministry of agriculture actively coordinated the relevant departments of the national development and reform commission and strived to expand the capital investment for standardized scale farming of dairy cows. this year, the project funds will increase to 1 billion, focusing on supporting dairy farmers' cooperatives to build farms and communities, helping the breeding communities to upgrade and upgrade, and supporting the self-building of dairy enterprises. participate in the acquisition of farms (communities) and build a number of high-quality milk source bases. second, speed up the construction of dairy breeding systems and improve the production level of dairy industry. strengthen the construction of dairy farms, accelerate the expansion of improved dairy cows, and expand the core group of high-yielding cows. third, implement the “revitalization of dairy industry development action” to improve the quality and safety of raw milk from the source. since the implementation of this action, the results have been remarkable. at present, the country has built a production base of 500,000 mu of high-yield and high-quality alfalfa, providing high-quality alfalfa for 300,000 high-yielding lactating cows. in the next three years, 1.5 million mu of high-yield and high-quality alfalfa base will be built to promote the matching of grass and livestock, and to breed and raise species to raise and raise income. fourth, strengthen milk station supervision and raw milk monitoring to ensure the quality and safety of raw milk. intensively carry out special rectification, improve the standardization of milk station construction and standardization management level, implement the national raw milk quality and safety monitoring plan, expand sampling inspection, increase the frequency of sampling, and resolutely crack down on various illegal additions. fifth, strengthen support for dairy farmers' cooperatives and family farms, and innovate the dairy production and management system. at present, there are 12,300 dairy cooperatives in the country, which is more than doubled in 2009, but at a lower level. the state will carry out pilot work on family ranches on the basis of full investigation. from the perspective of government management, china's food safety supervision system has been continuously improved. in particular, the state council executive meeting recently proposed that “the quality of infant formula should be regulated in accordance with strict drug management methods in the future”, which is the most stringent regulatory measure in history. in addition, there are large dairy companies and modern production equipment in china, which can basically guarantee the quality of the production stage. however, why are people still not worried about domestic dairy products? if we look at the dairy industry chain, we will find many shortcomings in the source of dairy products. mainly in the following two aspects.

first, there is a safety hazard in wantou ranch. since the melamine incident in 2008, large dairy companies such as mengniu, yili and sanyuan have built 10,000 dairy farms in china. however, it should be noted that wantou ranch has many disadvantages in terms of effective control such as pollution, epidemic situation and disease. for example, a wantou ranch has more than 200,000 tons of excreta per year. if it is caused by large-scale captivity, the breeding environment is bad. it will bury hidden dangers for milk source safety. the international dairy industry usually takes the path of family farms and large-scale farming. there are about 100 cows per cow in the netherlands and denmark, 50 cows in germany and france, and 136 cows per cow in the united states. 

second, the free-range households need to be cultivated into large-scale farmers. free-range has been the main source of milk in china, and it still occupies an important position in the supply of milk, generally the company farmer model. dairy companies collect and distribute the scattered milk sources through the milk station and put them into the market. this model has the advantages of clear division of labor and so on. however, the number of cattle raised by most of the free-range households in china still stays in single digits. if there is a problem, it will be a big problem to kill cattle and lose the industry. the illegal cost of the free-range households is low. this is also an uncertain factor affecting the safety of milk sources.

therefore, to ensure the safety of dairy products, it is necessary to establish a family-based, moderate-scale dairy farming system. first of all, the state's relevant support funds should focus on the dairy farms with family units, and allow them to easily obtain bank loan support, which can effectively promote their rapid development. secondly, family farms should be gradually developed to hundreds of heads with government support, so that the risk of illegal production will increase, which will encourage cattle farmers to be law-abiding. as long as the source of china's dairy industry is solid, consumers will have more psychological security, and domestic dairy companies will be able to regain trust.

the “twelfth five-year” animal husbandry development plan has set new development goals for the development of the dairy industry. to achieve new breakthroughs, we must face up to opportunities and challenges, overcome difficulties in the advancement, and accelerate the construction of modern dairy industry.
