1. Definition and classification of rice industry
oneDefinition of the rice industry
Rice is a finished product made from rice after it has gone through a series of processes, such as cleaning, hulling, milling, and finishing of finished products. According to the National Bureau of Statistics' "National Economic Industry Classification and **", the rice industry is classified in the grain milling subcategory of the agricultural and sideline food processing industry in China, and its statistical level 4 code is C1310.
II. II. IIClassification of the main products of the rice industry
There are three main types of rice in China: indica, japonica and glutinous. Indica rice is made from non-waxy indica rice, and its rice grains are generally oblong or elongated, which can be further divided into two types: early indica rice and late indica rice. Japonica rice is made from non-glutinous japonica rice, and the rice grains are generally oval-shaped, and are also divided into two types: early japonica rice and late japonica rice. Glutinous rice, made from waxy rice, is milky white, opaque, and sticky, and is divided into two types: indica glutinous rice and japonica glutinous rice.
2. Analysis of the policy environment of the rice industry
For the latest policies of the rice industry, you can refer to the "2015-2020 Analysis Report on the Production and Marketing Demand and Investment of China's Rice Industry" released by the Prospective Industry Research Institute.
In recent years, in order to further improve farmers' enthusiasm for planting, China has exempted agricultural taxes nationwide. This policy has been implemented since 2005 and the abolition of the Agricultural Tax Regulations of the People's Republic of China has been adopted.
In terms of grain exports, in order to cope with the pressure brought by a large number of exports to domestic grain, the export tax rebate for wheat, rice, rice, corn, soybean and other raw grains and their milling has been cancelled since December 20, 2008.
In terms of subsidy policy, since 2004, China has fully implemented subsidies for grain farmers, including direct subsidies for grain farmers, comprehensive subsidies for agricultural materials, subsidies for improved seeds, and subsidies for the purchase of agricultural machinery, which are collectively referred to as the "four subsidies".
On the whole, these policies of China are aimed at encouraging farmers to grow grain and ensuring national food security, while also regulating the domestic grain market and stabilizing the market order. In the future, as the rice market continues to change, relevant policies may also be adjusted.
