Headlines of the agricultural machinery industry in the first half of 2016

Event 1: The list of national general agricultural machinery subsidies is released

Event review: On January 6, the General Office of the Ministry of Agriculture officially announced the adjustment of the “2015-2017 National General Agricultural Machinery Central Financial Funds High Subsidy List”.

Comments: This "list" fully reflects the "nine-word policy." In the coming period, the general idea of ​​the subsidy policy is to “shrink the scope, control the quota, and promote openness”. This is based on two years of in-depth research, especially summing up the good practices and good experiences of the implementation of the subsidy policy in the past 12 years, carefully analyzing and thinking about the existing problems, and refining them. A 10% drop in the quota has led to an acceleration in the industry's “shuffle”, and “holding the currency” has become a fact and may be further evolved.

Event 2: Agricultural diesel engine emission standard "Guo San" upgrade extension

Event review: On January 18th, the Ministry of Environmental Protection announced the official announcement of the implementation of the national third-stage non-road mobile machinery diesel engine exhaust pollutant discharge standards.

Comments: The announcement clearly states that the sales date of the agricultural machinery products equipped with the "National Two" standard diesel engine will be postponed from April 1st to December 1st. Based on the industry's speculation on the extension of the sales of the second product. In this regard, some people have been able to conduct in-depth investigations and respond to the voice of the agricultural machinery industry, and postpone the implementation date by nearly one year. Some people also screamed: This extension is a historical reversal of the industry upgrade. What kind of opinions are held by industry professionals and they are not discussed at the moment. There must always be someone paying for an innovation, and those who are prepared for the rain can finally laugh. 2016, is the competition of enterprises, channel capabilities and strength, the big waves of sand began to see gold, let us wait and see!

Event 3: In 2016, the national plan to implement the agricultural machinery to deepen the land of 150 million mu

Event review: On February 17, the General Office of the Ministry of Agriculture issued a notice on the issuance of the National Agricultural Machinery Deep Loosening Work Plan (2016-2020).

Comments: A summary of the work of the national agricultural machinery in the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period, and detailed planning and target decomposition of the national agricultural machinery deep-soil preparation work during the "13th Five-Year Plan" period. In recent years, the central government's second batch of agricultural machinery subsidies are focused on corn harvesters. Therefore, the corn harvester market has continued to be popular in recent years. However, in 2015, the second batch of central financial agricultural machinery subsidy funds shifted to deep-slung land preparation operations, resulting in the corn harvester market entering the “downward turning point” and the corn machine enterprises carrying out the “tattery shuffle”. Affected by this, the “hard indicators” of deepening the land in 2016 and the next few years have become one of the focal points of the entire agricultural machinery industry.

Event 4: The "Defective Agricultural Machinery" recall system was implemented in Hunan Province

Event review: From February to April, Hunan Province organized experts to conduct in-depth technical demonstrations on agricultural machinery products involving quality defects, confirming the quality defects of one batch of corn thresher in each of the two agricultural machinery enterprises. According to the relevant regulations of the Regulations on the Safety Supervision and Administration of Agricultural Machinery, the Provincial Quality Supervision Bureau decided to recall the 64 defective corn thresher products that have been sold.

Comments: In the current era, the market growth slows down under the new normal, and the products are almost monopolized by foreign brands. The reform of agricultural machinery supply side promotes product upgrades, especially the penalties for violations of agricultural machinery subsidies in the past one or two years. The "defective agricultural machinery recall" system will become a powerful "pushing hand" for China's agricultural machinery industry to move forward. Defective agricultural machinery recall system, while improving the quality of China's agricultural machinery products, will certainly set off a new round of industry "shuffle" wave. At the same time, it is also a further extension of the “post-market” of agricultural machinery. The concept of products being king, service-oriented and user-oriented is prevalent in the agricultural machinery industry.

Event 5: China uses 600,000 combine harvesters to harvest 320 million mu of winter wheat

Event review: On June 21, the new data released by the Ministry of Agriculture showed that the cross-regional harvest of wheat in the main producing areas such as Jianghuai and Huanghuai has been successful, and the country has harvested 320 million mu of winter wheat, exceeding 95% of the area receivable.

Comments: Affected by the strong El Niño, China's extreme severe weather has been frequent since the beginning of this year, especially in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and Henan provinces, which have encountered rare continuous rainy weather, which has a greater impact on the production of “three summers”. It is very difficult. Through some mobile APP software, the point-to-point service of agricultural machine operators and growers is realized, and the wheat machine receiving and supply sides are effectively docked. Through the Internet platform, many agricultural operators are more convenient to find a job, and the maintenance of the aircraft is more rational, and the intelligent production mode is improved. The efficiency and effectiveness of agricultural machinery operations.
