It is the light snow season, and autumn grain procurement is in full swing. Reporters in grain-producing areas such as Heilongjiang, Shandong, and Xinjiang saw that relevant departments in various places carefully organized autumn grain purchases and actively served to ensure farmers sold grain. Autumn grain purchases opened at a high and steady pace, and the market was smooth and orderly.

On the morning of the 21st, at the door of Zhang Lijia, a villager in Xinghua Village, Qixingpao Town, Baoqing County, Shuangyashan City, Heilongjiang Province, a truck sent by a rice purchasing company was loading new season rice piled in front of the door.

“I have planted more than 450 acres of rice this year. This year has been good. The yield per mu has reached regarding 1,200 kilograms, and the price of rice has increased compared with last year.” Zhang Lixue said that with just a phone call, the purchasing company can ship the grain directly to his home. , the purchase is settled in cash, and the grain sale is easy and convenient.

More than 20 kilometers away from Zhang Lijia, at the Heilongjiang Hongxinglong Nongken Green Grain Distribution Co., Ltd. located in Youyi County, the conveyor belt is transporting grain from trucks into the granary, and the rice processing workshop nearby is humming with machinery, and new season rice is being processed.

“We started purchasing new season rice at the end of October. The current daily purchasing and storage capacity is between 200 and 300 tons. The purchasing season will last until February and March next year.” Fang Shuheng, the company’s general manager, said that their daily processing capacity is 200 tons. From left to right, rice was mainly sold to the southern market through rail transportation, truck transportation, etc.

In many grain-producing areas, socialized and market-oriented procurement has become increasingly active and has become the main channel for farmers to sell grain.

Inspection, testing, grain unloading, settlement… As trucks loaded with corn drove in for sale, Jia Bin, a corn farmer in Qitai County, Changji Hui Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang, received his year’s income. “The grain station drives to the fields to harvest, and I only need to pay for the harvesting machinery.” Jia Bin planted more than 1,400 acres of corn this year, with a purchase price of 1.7 yuan per kilogram, and a total income of nearly 2 million yuan.

“We ensure that prices are on the wall and samples are on the table.” Pan Bin, director of the central warehouse of Xinjiang Changliang Group Qitai Grain and Oil Co., Ltd., told reporters that in order to do a good job in purchasing autumn grain this year, they made preparations in advance, vacating warehouses, merging warehouses, and adjusting instruments. , continue to insist on high quality and good price, and ensure that good food is sold at a good price. “Farmers usually receive the money on the same day when they pay grain, and there is basically no overnight account.”

The latest data released by the State Administration of Grain and Material Reserves on the 22nd showed that various grain enterprises in major producing areas across the country have purchased more than 60 million tons of autumn grain, and autumn grain purchases in various regions are proceeding in an orderly manner. As of now, the purchase progress of mid-late indica rice in the south is regarding 60%; the corn volume in Northeast and North China is being concentrated, and the purchase progress is regarding 20%.

Promoting on-site processing of high-quality grain can extend the grain industry chain and increase the added value of grain. As the new season soybeans are purchased and put on the market, deep processing companies in Heilongjiang, the main soybean producing area, are operating at full capacity.

The soybean sowing area in Jixian County this year reached 358,800 acres. At the Heilongjiang Licheng Soybean Protein Co., Ltd. in the county, trucks loaded with soybeans are waiting to be unloaded. The workshop is busy, with barrels of newly produced soybean oil on the production line. Permeated with fragrance.

“We currently purchase three to four hundred tons of new season soybeans every day for processing 13 products such as soybean oil and protein concentrate.” Hao Qiang, deputy general manager of the company, said that soybeans are full of treasures. While producing soybean oil and soybean meal, we also use soybean oil and soybean meal. Phospholipids are extracted from oily feet, and concentrated protein is extracted from low-temperature soybean meal, and the soybeans are “eaten and squeezed”.

In the autumn grain procurement, governments at all levels have made every effort to coordinate and organize the work. Since this year’s autumn harvest, the Shandong Provincial Grain and Material Reserve System has organized market-oriented procurement, guided state-owned grain enterprises to play a leading role, actively guided more than 2,300 diversified entities to enter the market for procurement, encouraged grain enterprises to carry out order procurement, and established grain purchase and sales with grain farmers. Long-term cooperation. As of November 20, Shandong had purchased a total of 2.62 million tons of new corn, an increase of 670,000 tons year-on-year. Among them, state-owned enterprises purchased 130,000 tons, an increase of 95,000 tons year-on-year. Socialized enterprise acquisitions became the main force.

The relevant person in charge of the State Administration of Grain and Material Reserves said that with the recent increase in rain and snow in some areas, it is necessary to coordinate the procurement of autumn grains and safe grain storage, and guide all localities to give full play to the role of grain post-harvest service centers and related social facilities and resources to provide timely services to grain farmers. Provide services such as drying, collection and storage, increase the promotion and application of reservation purchase, strengthen guidance on scientific grain storage for farmers, and protect the interests of grain farmers.

In an exclusive interview, Chen Guoji stated that citizens will not be forced to vote, but the government has the responsibility to do a good job in publicity.

Chief Secretary for Administration Chan Kwok-kee pointed out that the biggest function of district councils in the future is consultation work, helping the government to “take the pulse” of regional affairs and citizens’ opinions, so as to “communicate the sentiments from above to the bottom”. As for the implementation of district services, the care team is responsible for it. He hopes to improve the level of district services and governance through the new district governance system.

In an exclusive interview with “Ming Pao”, Chen Guoji pointed out that the government’s reorganization of the regional governance structure stemmed from the “black violence” in 2019. The society was very politicized at that time, and some people in the district council elections “can be elected by shouting two or three anti-China and disruptive port slogans.” , following being elected, he did not properly perform the advisory and service functions of the district councils stipulated in the Basic Law. He was purely political and engaged in anti-China and disruptive things in Hong Kong.

He hoped that following the new district councilors take office, their first task will be to collect local public opinion on the five major work areas proposed by the District Governance Leading Committee, including following-school care, care for the elderly, etc., assist the government in formulating the priorities of various services, and deliver Conducted by the Care Team.

Chen Guoji stated that he had never thought of forcing citizens to vote, describing it as “it will force you to go to the polling station to vote, and there is no way to force you to vote.” However, the government has the responsibility to publicize district elections and explain the meaning of voting to the public. He believes that patriots are not “models”. Candidates have different political platforms. He refuted that under the new system, “it doesn’t matter which one is elected.”

The Childhood sector, in other words the crèches, lacks resources and it makes it known. A good thousand people demonstrated this Wednesday morning in the streets of Brussels.

According to them, the situation is deteriorating day by day. Young people are moving less and less towards childcare sectors, and experienced childcare workers are leaving the sector. This obviously has serious consequences on the quality of reception and impacts the number of places available, they warn.

Among the childcare workers present at the event, Marie-Christine Lecloud. She works in a crèche which welcomes around a hundred children. She tells us regarding her day: “We start the day and for 3 hours, we are alone with the children. Their number varies: seven, eight, nine, ten children to take care of alone. Then, the colleague arrives at 10 a.m. From 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., there are two of us for the same number of children and then once more, from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m., we are all alone for seven, eight, nine, ten children .“

When I first started working, it wasn’t like that

A situation which is far from rare. France Guebel, who works in a smaller structure, experiences the same thing: “At the very beginning when II was working, it wasn’t like that. We had a lot of children who were also part-time at the start. Now the standards have changed. Even non-working parents can leave it all day. Sick children can come because they need to see their general condition. So we also become part-time nurses. So there you have it, we do what we can, we love our work, but it gets hard.“

However, the politician says he has already released resources. But in the nursery where she works, Ophélie Deprez, another protester, sees nothing coming: “I don’t seenecessarily have nnew nursery opening. I don’t necessarily see positions in current daycare centers opening up either.“

The profession no longer attracts young people

Childcare workers supported by nursery management faced with a shortage of resources: “Recruitment becomes very complicated because we can no longer find candidates“, explains Françoise Sleex, director of the municipal crèche in Jette, in the Brussels Region. “There are simply no more students in schools. The profession no longer attracts young people. It’s not just loving children, there is a much greater dimension to this profession, which is a very difficult profession and which is not valued enough.”

The demonstration ended, around 1 p.m., with a release of balloons in front of the headquarters of the MR, the party of the minister-president of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation, Pierre-Yves Jeholet. Balloons to symbolize promises that fly away.

Before that, the procession also stopped in front of the Birth and Childhood Office (ONE) where a delegation was received.

With the sector at its wits’ end, other actions are already planned for the coming months.
