Foreign capital in China happy enclosure grain and oil market food security sounded the alarm

Foreign investors are eyeing China's food Ceinze October 16 is the World Food security Day, and as early as August this year, from Singapore's Yi Hai Kerry Group has targeted the acquisition target on the Chinese late rice. In China's granary hinterland of Jiangxi Fuzhou, some local rice has not yet matured, is benefiting Haijari to order a high price snapped, resulting in local small and medium-sized food processing enterprises have closed down.　　This is a dangerous signal that China's food security is again bright red. Replica Golden Arowana Brilliant now global food distribution is in the hands of 4 multinationals such as ADM, Bunge, Cargill and Louis Dreyfus. In the Chinese market, ADM Company and Singapore's brothers share the benefits of the most rapid international action.　　And Wilmar International is Yi Hai Jia in the parent company, in the domestic holding factory and trading company has nearly 40, called the national grain and oil processing boss. Yi Haijari once made golden Dragon fish brilliant. As Yi Hai Jia's flagship brand, Jinlong Fish occupies half of China's edible oil industry.　　Benefiting Haijari with the advantages of capital and brand, from raw material supply, futures trade, production and processing to market channels, the basic realization of Chinese edible oil chain control.　　At present, the Yi Hai Kerry on the one hand in the northeast, Jiangxi, Sichuan and other rice production areas, delimit "sphere of influence", the acquisition of the right, on the one hand, in the terminal sales and other aspects of the COFCO, grain storage and other local enterprises wrestling, grab the market cake. Saying "grain and oil do not separate." Yi Haijari in the occupation of half of China's edible oil market, and began to covet the Chinese rice industry, the implementation of large-scale infiltration.　　Its means is to buy a high price, in a vain attempt to squeeze the Chinese domestic enterprises out of the food market, and then the monopoly operation. So the rice is not yellow, snapping up busy. Early rice acquisition season this year, in Jiangxi Jinxi County state-owned grain purchasing and selling companies and Jinxi directly under the library are not open the pound acquisition of the case, the benefit of the Haijari August 1 first listed acquisition of conventional early rice.　　98 yuan per hundred of bids, both higher than this year's national development of 93 yuan of rice minimum purchase price, but also higher than last year's Jiangxi market early rice acquisition price of 6-8 yuan, but also higher than the current Jiangxi market early rice average acquisition price. Yi Hai Jia's trick is to buy rice directly from the farmers. Farmers harvested rice not to the whole sun, weighed directly from the Yi Hai Jia in storage with dryer drying machine. This saves the cost of the whole sun, of course, for the farmers.　　So Yi Hai Jia, the local small grain processing enterprises lack of drying machine, unable to compete, had to close the rest of the industry. Fuzhou Linchuan District Grain Purchasing and Marketing Corporation yellow manager to interview the reporter Big pour bitterness: we empty out a lot of Cangjong, but not receive food, now wages are not out. "Yi Hai Jia acquisition of conventional early rice moisture is 14.5%, impurities 3%, if converted into 13.5% moisture, 1.5% impurities of the national grade standard, its 98 Yuan/hundred Jin purchase price actually reached 105 yuan/hundred pounds."　　According to the current market prices, processing 100 kg of rice to lose 1-2 yuan. But Yi Hai Jia Bauzang, is to control the price to clean upPortal, knowing that the loss, but also to buy, by virtue of its huge funds and technical strength to tun food, thereby monopolizing the market, the price.　　In the previous two years, Yi Haijari clung to the idea of the loss of the market game, until the third year, then the lion opened his mouth, the rice profit to the bag.　　It is not difficult to see, Yi Hai Jia ambition is in the shortest time to replicate the gold arowana from oil to rice wealth myth.　　Infiltration route map foreign investment in Chinese food has been a plot, the infiltration of Chinese food has a sophisticated road map. From the competitive area, from north to south. The infiltration of foreign capital on Chinese food began in the main grain producing areas of northeast China, and then gradually eroded to the south. For example, France Louis Dreyfus company in 2005 in Jinzhou investment 15 million U.S. dollars to build annual processing 600,000 tons of soybean project succeeded, the project day to deal with soybeans minimum capacity of 2000 tons, after the completion of the annual output value can be achieved 1.8 billion yuan.　　Then it gradually expanded into the southern grain-producing area. From the operating variety, from the time to the main. Foreign investment in the first soybean and other less attention to control the edible oil in their hands, through the acquisition or participation in large domestic grain and oil enterprises, access to China's 80% of the import of soybeans, leading to 97 large oil enterprises in China, 64 of the foreign investment control. China, a big producer of soybeans, is now a cheap raw material base for other countries.　　Foreign capital from soybeans, wheat to the rice sequential advance, after the successful soybean, but also the establishment or acquisition of flour mills, rice processing plants, with the help of vegetable oil sales channels into the food consumption market. From the industrial chain, from the single trend of the whole. Foreign capital has just begun to enter the Chinese food market, mostly from a single sales link began, now has penetrated the entire industrial chain, from breeding, acquisition, processing, storage, sales, logistics, stock market and even futures, all-pervasive. Four foreign grain giants such as ADM, Bunge, Cargill and Louis Dreyfus penetrate into the vast fields of China's grain circulation market through various channels.　　These foreign giants are very discerning, the opportunity they fancy, is coming from the grain circulation system after the restructuring of the grassroots grain depot faced difficulties.　　It is a double-edged sword that the food industry should be entered into China. Foreign investment in the purchase and sale of Chinese food, the short-term can see the advantage of food prices to make farmers profit. These enterprises also brought advanced production technology, management experience and funds, conducive to the promotion of industry competition, improve the level of processing and technological progress, can avoid a grain acquisition enterprises or even several monopolistic market, can also revitalize the grassroots Liangzhan, grain depot assets, to solve the state-owned food enterprises laid-off workers. Hebei, Shandong and other places of the grain bureau officials said, in the difficult period after the reform of the Grain Bureau, the local state-owned grain depot very much hope and benefit Haijari such a strong customer cooperation.　　Because there is no risk of such cooperation, only the use of warehouses and personnel in the depot will be able to obtain benefits. But in the long run, the massive infiltration of foreign capital on China's grain industry has certain influence on China's food security. After the foreign-funded enterprises enter the field of grain purchase and sale, it is possible that the government departments can not grasp the grain inventory and purchase status in time and make the correct decision.In the current inflationary expectations, some businesses and businessmen will hoard food, and then release a variety of signals, like the hype green beans as the opportunity to fry high food prices. And when the price of food is irrational, it will cause great social unrest.　　Agriculture Minister Han Changfu has warned that "the Chinese people's rice bowls can not be held in the hands of others" is not alarmist. China, the world's main food-producing country and exporter, has been hit twice this year by droughts and floods.　　According to China National Disaster Reduction Commission, Ministry of Civil Affairs statistics, by its influence, China this year harvest total output of 123 million tons, cut 390,000 tons than last year, for the first time in 7 years harvest production.　　Therefore, we must take decisive measures to ensure China's food security by striking the alarm bell and guarding against foreign investment endangering China's food security. Increase the industry restructuring efforts. To strengthen the restructuring of the local food industry, as in the steel industry, it is necessary to have its own special fleet to contend with the international grain giants.　　At present, Chinese grain enterprises to COFCO, Cofco two major groups for the leading, in the domestic market to occupy a favorable situation, but in the international market lack of competitiveness, since the people put the "fight for food" burned to their homes, Chinese food enterprises should also play out to the opponent's backyard to fight a. Create a Chinese brand. Foreign capital robs China of grain resources, in addition to relying on strong capital and technology, also rely on its creation of the brand penetration of the Chinese market, such as the Chinese family in front of the kitchen, the dining table, "Golden Dragon Fish", "Orchid Flower", "Silver Piece", "carp", "Incense full garden" These foreign brands, very popular with Chinese consumers.　　Chinese grain enterprises should also make great efforts to create their own brands and compete with international brands. Investment to attract capital to check. The newly revised catalogue of foreign investment industry guidance has made adjustments to foreign investment in the agricultural sector: requires the Chinese side to take control of crop varieties, food production, genetically modified, cotton, major High-tech and biosafety, while strengthening controls on the food-related fields, including fertilizers, pesticides, retail of food, Wholesale and logistics areas such as foreign investment can only participate. However, in the actual operation process, many local governments in attracting investment when the hungry, out of the impulse of political performance, some of the defensive line to take the initiative to withdraw, to foreign capital to enter the Low-cost access to create a great convenience.　　Therefore, we should emphasize that the investment must take into account the national food security, the free green light is prohibited to relax the threshold of foreign investment into the food market. Food should be carefully exported. With 1.3 billion people in China, food is the first element of national security. For now, grain-producing countries such as Russia are implementing policies to ban food exports to protect their food security. In order to trade with the countries concerned, it is necessary to export food in moderation. But the state must implement a controlled food export policy, tighten the food export clearance, not let foreign investment in food exports "stir up trouble".
