China News Service, Yinchuan, September 13 (Reporter Yu Jing) On the 13th, the reporter learned from the Ningxia Supply and Marketing Cooperative that the unit issued the "Notice on Organizing and Carrying out Actions to Improve the Quality and Efficiency of Agricultural Socialized Services", focusing on building a stronger service carrier, innovating service models, improving digital support, and strengthening factor guarantees, comprehensively launching actions to improve the quality and efficiency of agricultural socialized services, open up the "last mile" of services for farmers, and promote the high-quality development of characteristic agriculture.
According to the goal, by 2030, the scale of agricultural socialization services for wholly-owned and holding enterprises and grassroots cooperatives in Ningxia's supply and marketing system will reach more than 200,000 acres, cultivate more than three agricultural socialization service enterprises with strong service capabilities, build and renovate more than five regional agricultural service centers, and build a full-chain service system covering pre-production, production, and post-production.
It is understood that this operation has made systematic arrangements in ten aspects, including cultivating key service enterprises, building strong service centers for farmers, and activating the functions of grassroots supply and marketing cooperatives. Ningxia Supply and Marketing Group will link up with city and county (district) supply and marketing cooperatives that have no business, establish agricultural input service enterprises through capital investment, equity cooperation, etc., and guide traditional agricultural input enterprises to accelerate their transformation into full-scale agricultural socialization service entities. All localities will fully revitalize idle assets, upgrade regional agricultural service centers through joint construction and other means, and provide integrated "one-stop, full-process" services such as supply of agricultural inputs, seedlings and seedlings, agricultural machinery operations, unified prevention and control, drying and warehousing, cold chain preservation, etc., so that farmers can farm more worry-free.
In terms of service model, the supply and marketing system will promote "supply and marketing +" according to local conditions, and provide "nanny-style" full-process custody or "menu-style" single-link custody on demand. Closely following the needs of Ningxia's "six special" industries, fishery and other characteristic industries, we will make up for the shortcomings in services such as unified prevention and control, picking and drying, forage seed collection, storage and processing, and resource utilization of breeding waste to accurately match the actual needs of characteristic breeding.
Both online and offline efforts are made to empower modern agriculture with wisdom. Offline, we will accelerate the establishment of a physical service network of "county agrochemical service enterprises + township agricultural service centers + village-level service outlets"; online, we will rely on the "digital supply and marketing" platform to create a smart service hub to realize online purchase and instant delivery of agricultural supplies, online reservations for agricultural machinery, and online diagnosis at crop hospitals, allowing more data to be processed and farmers to have less to do. At the same time, we will continue to deepen the upgrading of "green agricultural inputs", make up for the shortcomings of primary processing and cold chain warehousing facilities in the production areas, make good use of production and marketing channels such as the "832 platform" and "Ninggong Cloud", promote the continuous extension of the agricultural service chain to the value chain of agricultural products, and help farmers turn "good harvests" into "good profits."
In order to break bottlenecks in capital and finance, Ningxia's supply and marketing department will deepen the "supply and marketing + finance" collaboration, jointly develop supply chain financial products, and support grassroots communities and agricultural service centers to connect with financial institutions to set up inclusive financial service sites. Actively strive for funds from the central government for agricultural socialization services, high-standard farmland construction, cold chain logistics and other projects, select cities and counties with good foundations and high enthusiasm for pilot projects, promote service quality improvement, expansion and in-depth development in a point-to-point manner, and demonstrate the power of supply and marketing in the comprehensive promotion of rural revitalization.
