en.Wedoany.com Report on Mar 28th, Wenchang City in China's Hainan Province actively implemented the agricultural machinery voucher policy, shifting the fiscal subsidy method from indirect and post-event to direct and real-time, to promote the development of agricultural mechanization, intelligence, and greening. This transformation helps agricultural production enterprises, large-scale growers, smallholder farmers, and agricultural machinery service organizations better integrate into the modern agricultural system and enhance the mechanization level of rice cultivation.
Wenchang City has implemented mechanized rice seedling transplanting over an area of 4,810.73 mu, distributing subsidy funds of 183,216.5 yuan through the agricultural machinery voucher. The Agricultural Mechanization Management Office of the Hainan Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs conducted multiple research and guidance sessions, adjusting subsidy standards in a timely manner, providing crucial support for the policy's implementation.
The agricultural machinery voucher policy effectively reduces production costs for farmers and increases their enthusiasm for grain cultivation. Focusing on the rice seedling raising and transplanting stage, the policy provides fixed-amount subsidies, allowing farmers to directly deduct costs when purchasing agricultural machinery services. The average operational cost per mu decreased by approximately 40-60%, alleviating pressure from rising agricultural input prices and labor shortages.
The agricultural machinery voucher policy revitalized the agricultural machinery service market and strengthened socialized service organizations. The policy brought stable operational orders and improved machinery utilization efficiency. In Wenchang City, participating service organizations increased from 3 to 5, and transplanters increased from 11 to 18, enhancing service capacity.
The agricultural machinery voucher policy standardized the order of the agricultural machinery operation market and improved operational quality. Relying on Hainan Province's Smart Agricultural Machinery Comprehensive Management Service System, precise matching of supply and demand, operational monitoring, and instant settlement were achieved. Farmers can select service providers online, creating a transparent and orderly market environment. Management authorities conduct real-time monitoring to prevent violations, ensuring the safe and efficient use of funds.
