Zero price difference supply of pesticides: the gate of agricultural product quality and safety

Since our county launched the system of "centralized procurement, unified distribution and zero price difference supply of basic pesticides" last year, the establishment of a pesticide flow tracking and agricultural product quality traceability system has been officially launched
.
Through a year of practical exploration, the system construction has achieved initial results.
While the quality and safety of agricultural products are guaranteed, production costs have been reduced, and pesticide accidents have been reduced.
More than 80,000 farmers in the county can enjoy the benefits of zero-price pesticide supply.
, Was praised by farmers as a "good policy for precision and benefit to farmers"
.
The zero price difference supply of pesticides in our county, highlighting institutional construction, and information management have achieved certain results, which are mainly reflected in the following aspects
.
Reduce the cost of medication and reduce the burden on farmers
.
Basic pesticides cover leading industries such as grain, tea, vegetables, and fruits.
The quality of pesticides is ensured through centralized bidding and the price is slightly lower than that of surrounding counties and cities
.
In the past, the cost of pesticides per mu of rice was between 100 and 140 yuan.
After the implementation of zero price difference supply, the cost of pesticides dropped by more than 8%
.
Strengthen source control and standardize pesticide management
.
The zero price difference supply point is set up according to the principle of "unified identification and digital management"
.
Each bottle of pesticide has a commodity bar code, and information such as "drug name, price, prevention type" can be generated by scanning the code.
Relying on the "Agricultural Material Intelligent Supervision System" platform, a pesticide sales ledger is established to record the purchase of farmers' information and real-time supervision Pesticide flow direction, improve the pesticide traceability system
.
For users who purchase super large quantities, early warnings are given in time to effectively avoid the phenomenon of multiple use or abuse of pesticides and achieve source control
.
Promote the reduced use of pesticides and improve the quality and safety of agricultural products
.
Based on the characteristics of crop diseases and insect pest control and the epidemic situation of the previous year, the County Supply and Marketing Cooperative compiled a pesticide procurement catalog, submitted it to the County Agriculture Bureau for review and filing, and invited agricultural experts to conduct a strict qualification review of potential bidders, and established an integrity manual for manufacturers and suppliers.
Those included in the blacklist are not allowed to enter bids.
The quality of pesticides is controlled from the source, and the "two highs" pesticides and counterfeit and inferior pesticides are prevented from flowing into our county's market, effectively guaranteeing the quality and safety of agricultural products
.
Give full play to the role of the main channel to guide farmers in scientific drug use
.
According to statistics, in 2016, the county's annual zero-price pesticide sales reached 220 tons, accounting for about 40% of the total annual sales, and the main channel of agricultural resources management of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative gradually emerged
.
The early warning and forecast of crop diseases and insect pests and scientific and rational use of medicines launched by the "Agricultural Materials Intelligent Supervision System" have been recognized by the majority of farmers
.
In addition, several basic principles must be adhered to to carry out zero-price supply of pesticides
.
First, we must update pesticide varieties in time to meet the needs of agricultural production; second, we must innovate service methods to adapt to the coexistence of small-scale and industrialized operations in agriculture; third, we must reasonably set up business outlets to facilitate farmers' purchase
.
In order to further improve the zero-price supply of pesticides, our county has made major adjustments to the pesticide procurement catalog this year, expanding the variety of pesticides from 24 to 36
.
At the same time, a number of preferential service measures have been introduced.
Large farmers, professional farmers' cooperatives and leading agricultural enterprises can purchase basic pesticides with valid documents such as business licenses and enjoy door-to-door delivery and agricultural technology guidance services
.
The implementation of the zero price difference supply of pesticides has brought new changes to the agricultural material market in our county.
The pesticide management order is more standardized, and the high-toxic, high-residue and counterfeit and inferior pesticides are blocked.
The burden on farmers is further reduced, and the quality and safety of agricultural products in our county A security "gate" is on
