Although accurate data this year has yet to be out, but China Agricultural Machinery Industry Association Gao Yuan-yan in the recently concluded 2009 National Farm Machinery Industry Working Conference on high-profile forecasts, this year’s national farm machinery industry output will reach 230 billion yuan, profits will be more than 100 billion! And two years ago in 2007, the annual output value of more than 150 billion yuan of China’s agricultural machinery industry is also becoming the top ten news stories. In the context of the global economic crisis, this data has given a lot of “farm people” proud and excited.

Production and marketing: scenery over here is fine

From the National Bureau of Statistics figures show that 1 in October this year, China’s agricultural machinery industry output value of 187.249 billion yuan, up 23.30 percent, with growth rates in the traditional machinery industry in the first place continue to maintain a sustained, rapid and stable growth. Harvesting machinery and particularly strong growth in large and medium sized tractors.

Since 2002, eight years time, the agricultural machinery industry has maintained annual growth rate of 20% or more. GAO Yuan-yan said, “All major companies this year, two months after the production, sales have continued to maintain the momentum of rapid growth, according to this momentum of view, this year’s national agricultural output value reached 230 billion yuan is no problem. In the world come to look can be described as thriving! ”

In sharp contrast with China is the world’s agricultural industry, the past two years sitting trip “roller coaster” — 2008 rapid growth in 2009 has fallen considerably. In 2008 the world’s agricultural machinery industry in 2007 increased by 13% of the basis, increased by 18%, of which Germany would increase by 25%.

However, the spillover of the financial crisis, the sharp decline in 2009 is expected to reduce over 18% year on year GDP has returned to 2006 levels. Russia, Eastern Europe, a sharp decline in the market, its products are basically out of the international market; Germany, Japan and other agricultural producing countries, a variety of farm machinery sales contraction.

In 2008 the world’s agricultural output value for the 67 billion euros, according to data from comparable estimates, about 15 percent of China into the world’s top five; this year, China will continue to consolidate and strengthen its position as the world’s agricultural machinery. In 2010 in the country’s economic policies and increase the “three rural” work in support of efforts, China Agricultural Machinery Industry Association, estimates that China’s agricultural machinery industry sales growth of 10% to 15%, with a total estimated 250 billion ~ 2700 Bn.

Export: Global with the Yan Liang

In 2008, China’s agricultural product exports accounted for 23% of GDP, into the world trade in the main channel. With confidence a few key agricultural enterprises intended to show in international markets later this year to test their skills did not think the economic crisis our country export market for agricultural products played Qilingbala, the worst-hit areas are China’s traditional market, a serious obstacle to China’s agricultural products in international trade.

The first ten months, exports 4.142 billion U.S. dollars, down 23.99%. In which the greatest impact is the tractor industry, exports fell 43.35 percent, 31.67 percent decline in exports vehicles, while the combine harvester has a more substantial increase in exports.

In 2008, the world’s exports of agricultural products is about 38 billion euros, an increase of 19%. But by 2009, but reversed, the global volume of trade can be “appalling” to describe. European Protection Association (CEMA) released in June 2009 the EU agricultural sector climate index is -67.6, a year ago in June was 71.6. Germany 1 ~ September tractor exports fell 28.4%, farm exports fell 25.4%, export share of agricultural gross output value of the share will be 75% in 2008 to 2009 to 69%. Japan’s exports in the first half of this year fell 38.8% year on year, so that the overall sales of agricultural machinery industry dropped by 20%.

Tomorrow: Comrade needs to be done

2009 National Farm Machinery Industry Working Conference during the World Climate Conference in Copenhagen is being held at. Many representatives said that China’s agricultural diesel engines and various farm vehicles to the increase of carbon dioxide emissions “contribution is not small.” This is a big country to enter our country from agricultural farm power a major obstacle. Formulation and implementation of field operations mechanical energy-saving emission reduction mandatory standards work may in the near future will be put on the agenda. From the situation in Europe, at present, adopting a European Ⅲ A standard, in 2011 to implement EU Ⅲ B standards, in 2013 on the implementation of Europe Ⅳ standard. Compared with them, we do, “shame.”

Product development and technological upgrading of China’s agricultural machinery industry is another bottleneck. According to Gao Yuan Yan introduced foreign tractors, combines many have to spend a CVT, hybrid, ABS brakes, ESP stability system, technologies such as driving. Product development, with the “equipment manufacturing industry adjustment and the revitalization of planning” of the “equipment manufacturing investment in technological upgrading and technological progress and the direction of the guiding directory” in the 22 agricultural projects, agricultural enterprises should all be working for. The State Council Development Research Center of France, said Zhang, low-level redundant construction and low price competition is not conducive to China’s agricultural machinery industry.

Then the crisis often birth of a new era of scientific and technological revolution, our agricultural enterprises, especially the leading enterprise, we must seize the opportunity, only those with independent intellectual property rights of technology and products in order to be called agricultural power.

In addition to energy saving and emission reduction technologies and product development, the 2010 also in the market there are still many uncertainties. In the international market, in addition to a few countries, the agricultural market is still difficult to pick up. The domestic market, although the state to determine the amount of subsidies would also increase the purchase, but if the income of farmers increased unhappiness, operating farm machinery can not earn money, but also will affect the purchase initiative.

China Agricultural Machinery Industry Association at the annual meeting on this to remind the business, to increase the hot products, production capacity, improve product quality, improve product performance; active product structure adjustment, improve the output of high-tech products.
