The debate on gain and loss is urgent!

I got instant happiness.

But I lost the most precious thing.

Get the result that is not a dream.

But lost the eternity of a good impression.

lost & found

There is never the best solution.

If you can't choose.

I would rather not choose.

But the reality is always so cruel

It doesn't matter whether you want to choose or not. ....

Gains and losses of food price control

The phenomenon of agricultural and sideline products "no one asks about the price drop, but the price rises long" shows that the current regulation is still at the level of "shortage regulation and consumption regulation"; To some extent, the skyrocketing stems from the previous disregard for the interests of production links.

In the past few days, the prices of grain, oil, meat and eggs in various parts of China have risen in turn, which has brought severe tests to macroeconomic operation and aroused strong social repercussions. According to the survey of Outlook News Weekly, there are objective reasons for this round of general price increase, such as rapid macro-economy, excess liquidity and rising world food prices. At the same time, it exposed the lack of market regulation ideas of agricultural products (2 1. 900. 000. 00%), the weakness of animal epidemic prevention system, and the negative effects of grain and energy utilization began to appear.

From indifference to "depravity"

Xu Jiansheng, general manager of Jiangxi Lu Hua Animal Husbandry Co., Ltd., who has been engaged in pig breeding for a long time, is critical of the government's recent meat price control. He said that a year ago, when pig farmers were struggling to kill pigs at a loss, except for a few weak appeals from animal husbandry authorities or industry associations, public opinion was silent and there was no government support. At present, when the price of pork rises, the government departments put in measures to stabilize the price of pork, such as national reserve meat, while raising the minimum living standard for urban residents and issuing "meat supplements", which is obviously suspected of "emphasizing the city over the countryside" and "emphasizing consumption over production".

Xu Jiansheng said that if the government used the money raised from subsistence allowances and meat supplements last year to help farmers "save the market" through price subsidies, epidemic disease subsidies, breeding pig subsidies or epidemic disease insurance, to protect farmers' enthusiasm, reduce the number of livestock released in advance and guide timely replenishment of livestock, this year's skyrocketing market may be avoided, at least not. He admitted that the root cause of the soaring pork price this year was the gap between supply and demand, which was caused by the low pork price and the blue ear disease epidemic last year, and was the "sequela" left by the indifference of the relevant parties to the plunge in pork prices and the epidemic last year.

Hu Zhongming, deputy director of the Marketing Department of the Jiangxi Provincial Department of Agriculture, said that it is not uncommon for pork to "drop in price without asking, but increase in price by bulls" in the current agricultural products market in China. The government tends to attach importance to the reflection of the consumer market and ignore the voice of the production link; The market will not stir up a ripple because of low prices, but it can produce strong fluctuations in price increases; Consumers can only feel the pain of rising prices, but it is difficult to understand the bitterness of farmers when pork prices fall. Farmers not only have to bear the losses of falling, but also can't enjoy the rising dividends ... To some extent, the indifference to falling and the lack of risk compensation mechanism have led to retaliatory skyrocketing.

Supervision of agricultural and sideline products should learn from the experience of grain reform

Li Guoxiang, a researcher at the Institute of Rural Development of China Academy of Social Sciences, pointed out that when the supply is in short supply and prices are rising, governments at all levels are still used to standing in the perspective of urban consumers. However, when there is a surplus of agricultural products, it is difficult to "support the market" or "save the market". The poor terms of trade of agricultural products is a worldwide problem. Although China has generally reached the stage of "supplementing agriculture with industry and bringing rural areas with cities", under the atmosphere of public opinion and mode of thinking of the whole society, farmers' right to speak is still too weak, and even the thinking of "pressing rural areas with cities" and "dual structure" still exists at some time and in some aspects.

Li Guoxiang said that in today's increasingly close economic ties between urban and rural areas and the continuous improvement of the market economy, the "tangible hand" of the government must shift from "shortage control" to "combination of shortage control and surplus control" and from "consumption control" to "combination of consumption control and production control". He believes that shortage control is passive water, which can only cure the symptoms, not the root cause. Only by combining excessive regulation can we fundamentally build a long-term mechanism for stable production and marketing of agricultural products and avoid the ups and downs of agricultural products prices.

Judging from the price increase of grain, oil, meat and eggs since the end of last year, the price fluctuation of agricultural products in China is becoming more and more frequent, and the fluctuation range is also quietly increasing. Li Guoxiang said that in the past, cities all over the world had "vegetable basket projects" to ensure the price stability of consumer goods for urban residents. In recent years, with the accelerated transfer of agricultural and sideline products production to agricultural areas, the subsidy mechanism of "vegetable basket project" exists in name only, but no new and nationwide subsidy mechanism has been established.

The next step is to study whether it is necessary to establish a production subsidy mechanism for all agricultural and sideline products.

In fact, at present, the state subsidy mechanism for grain has been established and achieved initial results. Compared with the increase in food prices at the end of last year and the increase in pork prices in May this year, the performance of the two is quite different.

After the food price rose last year, the country sold the minimum purchase price of grain, and the market food price quickly stabilized, and it is still stable at a high level. In May this year, the price increase of pork was "one price a day". Although the relevant departments proposed to use the national reserve meat to stabilize the market, they did not put it into action. The industry predicts that the price of meat will not fall until at least August and September, and some even say that by next year, the government departments seem to be helpless about the "crazy price of meat".

This is because the government has different regulatory mechanisms for these two agricultural products. After the food price rose in the spring of 2004, the state took timely measures to introduce the minimum purchase price policy, and released the minimum purchase price of key grain varieties every year. If the market price at the time of grain harvest is lower than the minimum purchase price, the grain management enterprises designated by the state shall enter the market for purchase. On the one hand, it mobilized farmers' enthusiasm for growing grain and ensured sufficient grain output; At the same time, purchasing grain has also become an important means of government regulation. Therefore, in recent years, China's grain output has continued to rise and prices have been stable. Many agricultural and sideline products, including pigs, are completely market-oriented and lack of early warning mechanism, so it is inevitable that prices will rise and fall sharply.

Relevant persons interviewed suggested that for the stable and coordinated development of the whole macro-economy, we should study and establish a production subsidy system for the whole agricultural industry with reference to the minimum grain purchase price system, and establish a long-term mechanism for the sustained and stable prices of agricultural and sideline products: we can consider introducing the minimum purchase price system; According to the characteristics of different agricultural products, we can establish a breeding pig subsidy and epidemic disease subsidy system; Actively guide the sales area and the production area to establish a close and mutually beneficial production and marketing cooperation mechanism; Pay close attention to establishing and expanding the coverage of policy-based agricultural insurance to reduce the risk of agricultural production.

Food Energy Squeezes Food Safety

There is a common reason for the general increase in the prices of grain, oil, meat and eggs, that is, the energy utilization of grain. In recent years, the energy price in the international market is at a historical high. Many countries, including China, use cereal products to produce alternative energy sources. The bioenergy industry is in the ascendant, and the demand for grain has increased greatly, pushing up the price of grain, oil, meat and eggs.

At the end of last year, Outlook and Newsweek made a research report on grain energy conversion during the period of rising food prices, and issued an early warning signal. Subsequently, the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Finance jointly issued the Notice on Strengthening the Construction Management of Biofuel Ethanol Projects to Promote the Healthy Development of the Industry, demanding that the approval and filing of corn processing projects be suspended immediately, and the projects under construction and proposed to be comprehensively cleaned up.

The recent increase in the price of meat and eggs proves once again that fuel ethanol has not brought all the good things to China. The dual pressures of high oil prices and high food prices bring difficulties to the national economy and people's livelihood, and also bring new challenges to the whole macro-economy. Energy security issues began to "squeeze" food security issues, including food security.

For a long time, grain has been the agricultural industry with the lowest comparative benefit. The development of energy utilization has prolonged the grain industry chain, increased the added value, developed moderately, promoted farmers' enthusiasm for growing grain, stabilized grain production, increased farmers' income and promoted local economic development. However, the current momentum of blind construction is not only not conducive to the adjustment of agricultural structure, but also to the healthy development of corn processing industry, and may lead to national food security problems.

For China, a country with a large population and a small population, the problem of eating must not be taken lightly. Consume a lot of food to process industrial oil,

Chemical products are not only "robbing Peter to pay Paul", but also "digging the ground to build the roof". In a certain sense, food security belongs to the category of survival and is the "bottom line"; Energy security belongs more to the category of development. Zhai Huqu, president of China Academy of Agricultural Sciences, said in an interview with this reporter that the grain in China could not bear the weight of "energy". In order to solve the problem of feeding the population of 65.438+0.3 billion, the land in China is exhausted, so we "can't drive on an empty stomach".

Guan Qingyou, a scholar at the Asia-Pacific Institute of China Academy of Social Sciences, recently said that China is currently in a dilemma in bioenergy. If we vigorously develop bioenergy such as ethanol, we will directly face the threat of high food prices; If it does not develop, it may fall behind in the field of alternative energy. How to deal with it? He put forward three ideas:

First, increase the import of grain and energy products and minimize the pressure of rising domestic prices. The trend of food prices is related to people's livelihood and should be the primary policy goal. China is very big

If foreign exchange reserves can be partially converted into reserve oil and grain reserves, it can not only play the role of foreign exchange reserves, but also solve urgent needs.

Second, regard the grain problem as an energy problem, and do everything possible to increase the domestic grain supply, so as to benefit and protect the interests of grain farmers. Through subsidies, purchase restriction and circulation system reform, we will straighten out the channels of grain supply and demand and increase grain supply.

Third, rethink and adjust the thinking of alternative energy development in China, and rethink whether the thinking of developing bioenergy in the United States and other grain-producing countries is suitable for China.

Guan Qingyou said that China's energy strategy should consider at least two issues: First, the development of alternative energy is inevitable and should be regarded as a long-term strategy. Secondly, the energy strategy must first ensure the national welfare, which leads to the decline of national welfare. People come first. Although China is facing a severe energy security situation, food security is always more important than energy security. The general rise in the prices of grain, oil, meat and eggs has sounded the alarm for us.

I like such a couplet very much: why do you have to be swayed by considerations of gain and loss/willing/not willing. Maybe the process of life is a process of giving up and getting back. The key is to learn to give up, because giving up is also a choice in life.

Give up a tree and you will get the whole forest! Give up a drop of water and you will have the whole sea! Give up a depression and you will occupy a high mountain! Besides, giving up something doesn't mean losing it. When you give up your dream and return to reality, you will find a beautiful day waiting for you, opening a door to the future for you.

A kind heart, struggling to find comfort. I love you so much that I decided to leave. I can't give or take. Looking at your serious eyes, my heart is spreading, but how can I stop your hurried steps for me, look back and smile, and silently wish you a happy journey?

Many things are always experienced before they are understood. Like feelings, after the pain, you will know how to protect yourself; Only when you are stupid will you know how to persist, give up at the right time, and get to know yourself gradually in gain and loss. Since silence has lost its meaning, it is better to immediately cut off the repeated feelings in your heart, give up what you cherish and expect, and choose again. In fact, life doesn't need this meaningless persistence. You really can't give up without anything. Learning to give up will make life easier.

Giving up is a kind of courage, but giving up is by no means a betrayal of yourself. If you give up selfishness and hypocrisy, you will become noble, and the sky you live in will be a clear Wan Li. Give up an ethereal relationship and you will become relaxed, relieved and relaxed.

Giving up is not cowardice, inferiority, self-abandonment, or a kind of relief you are eager to get in a desperate situation, but a choice you make after learning from a painful experience.

Giving up is not waking up from a nightmare, In the snow, escaping or giving up, but a choice made after discovering right and wrong, truth and falsehood, good and evil, beauty and ugliness.

What does it mean to give up? Giving up is a kind of courage, but what we will do after giving up is worth pondering.

Giving up is also an option. ...

Look at the gains and losses flatly.

At first glance, "getting" seems to be better than "losing", but when you think about it, it is not. "Gain" should be meaningful, and "loss" should also be valuable.

Tao Yuanming "naturally loves mountains" and "falls into the dust net by mistake", but he finally returned to his beloved land. It seems that I lost my career, but I got a beautiful peach blossom garden.

Xiang Yu finally staged a tragedy that made the world lament. He lost his country and the world, but he made people admire and respect him. Only in this way can he be a hero when he is alive and a ghost when he is dead! This poem.

Li Bai was rich, but "Oh, how can I bow and scrape to the high officials?" He chose freedom and got it.

Therefore, "gain" does not mean victory, "loss" does not mean failure, and the key is to look down on gains and losses.

If you underestimate the gains and losses, you will not care about the "unfairness" that will inevitably appear in life, and you will look at everything very freely. Sometimes I think that the result of "gain and loss" is not as good as the process of gain and loss.

There is a story: because the bee made a contribution to the gods, the gods promised to realize one of his wishes. The bee decided to let itself have a poisonous needle to get back at mankind, and the gods warned it that when it stung people, its life ceased to exist.

Bees were really attacked before they had poisonous needles. What they lose is safety or "health". But when it had the poison needle of revenge, it lost its life. Bees got a poisonous needle to stab humans, but finally they stabbed their own souls with the venom of their own hearts!

That poisonous needle should not have been obtained, and that life should not have been lost. It goes without saying that bees hurt themselves when they got lost.

Imagine if the bee looked down on gains and losses and would rather throw away the poisonous needle, then it would be very happy!

Too much care about gains and losses is equivalent to adding unnecessary burden to yourself and inserting a poisonous needle into your mind. Put down the baggage and pull out the poison needle, you will feel so relaxed, so free and easy, so detached!

When I compare

What I got and what I lost,

What I missed has nothing to do with what I got,

There is little pride.

I feel it.

How much time was wasted;

Good intentions are like arrows.

Fall behind halfway, or fly aside.

But who dares?

Measure gains and losses in this way.
