People's Daily Beijing March 7 (the People's Front report group) 16:30 P.M., the ninth session of the National People's Congress held a press conference.　　The Minister of Commerce, Chen Deming, was present and asked the journalist about promoting consumption and foreign trade.　　China Daily Reporter: You mentioned broadening the import channels of commodities such as grain and cotton, so what is China going to do? Chen Deming said that, like the import of important agricultural means of production, we will not increase substantially. Because we are in the WTO for food, cotton, such as the import of agricultural commodities, there is a management method, some of the implementation of quota management, some of the implementation of sliding tax management.　　For example, within more than 2 million tons of cotton is a tax rate, more than this to raise the import tax rate. Chen Deming said that this is not only to protect domestic cotton production, but also to protect the world cotton market price stability. Because China is a big country, if China's enterprises in large international procurement, it will also lead to large international prices of raw materials fluctuations, we have the responsibility to do so.
