High yield, high quality and high purchase price

“三高”

小麦产量高、质量高、价格高

This year, the average yield of wheat per mu (1 mu equals about 666 square meters) in most areas of Henan stands at over 1,000 jin (1 jin equals to 0.5 kg), indicating that the total yield is expected to hit a record high. The average weight of wheat per liter is 801g, a record high over the past 10 years. Besides, the volume of the second-grade (and above) wheat makes up over 95 percent of the total while that of the first-grade 76.3 percent, higher in recent 10 years. The purchase price of wheat has increased about 20 percent year-on-year to 1.46-1.53 yuan per jin, hitting a record high.

今年，老百姓普遍反映小麦产量创新高，据调查，全省大部分地区的小麦平均亩产在1000斤以上，总产预计超过常年水平。质量方面：今年小麦容重平均值是801克，是近10年来最高的；二等及以上小麦占比达95%以上，其中一等小麦达到76.3%，是近10年来占比较高年份。价格上，新麦开秤价为每斤1.46-1.53元，同比上涨0.24-0.31元，涨幅20%左右，也是历年的开秤最高价。

Wheat purchased fast

“一快”

市场化收购进度快

By July 10, 15.114 billion jin of wheat had been purchased across Henan, a year-on-year increase of 1.828 billion jin or 13.76 percent, with a price of 1.53 yuan per jin, a year-on-year increase of 0.295 yuan or 23.9 percent. Among them, 6.726 billion jin was purchased by local state-owned grain enterprises, a year-on-year increase of 2.41 billion jin, while 8.388 billion jin by other enterprises. 2.35 billion jin of wheat had been harvested and stored by the former for its clients, including 1.5 billion jin of high-quality wheat with an average price of 1.6 yuan per jin.

今年各类市场主体参与收购的积极性高。截至7月10日，全省市场化收购新小麦151.14亿斤，同比增加18.28亿斤，涨幅13.76%。收购均价是每斤1.53元，同比上涨0.295元，涨幅23.9%。其中，地方国有粮食企业收购67.26亿斤，同比增加24.1亿斤，其他企业收购83.88亿斤。地方国有粮食企业通过代收代储、租仓经营等方式，代收代储小麦23.5亿斤。收购优质小麦15亿斤，平均收购价为每斤1.6元。

High purchase price maintained

“一稳定”

市场收购价格在高位相对稳定

The latest weekly purchase price of wheat is 1.52-1.57 yuan per jin with an average of 1.53 yuan per jin, 0.32 yuan or 26.7 percent higher from a year earlier while 0.17 yuan or 12.6 percent higher than that of the beginning of this year. Now, as the rainy season approaches, wheat storage is affected by the growing number of days with high temperatures and high humidity, and some farmers have begun to sell their wheat, causing an increase in market supply. So, the purchase price in some areas has decreased by 0.01-0.02 yuan per jin.

据最新一周的价格监测显示，全省小麦市场收购价为每斤1.52-1.57元，全省平均收购价是每斤1.53元，与去年同期相比，增加大约0.32元，涨幅26.7%；与今年年初相比，平均增加0.17元左右，涨幅12.6%。目前，因临近汛期，高温高湿天气持续，小麦储存受到影响，部分农民开始考虑卖粮变现，市场阶段性供应量增大，小麦价格逐渐趋于平稳，部分地区较6月底下跌0.01-0.02元/斤。（中文来源/大河网 记者/宋向乐 编译/杨佳欣 何蒙贺 海报/王君艺 审校/张军平）
