China News Service, July 14th China National Reserve Grain Management Group Co., Ltd. issued an explanation on the official Weibo on the preliminary verification of issues related to the auction sale of one-off reserve corn at the Qinggang Rongchang collection and storage site in Zhaodong City. The situation notes pointed out that after preliminary verification, the quality problems of the batch of corn reflected in the video are basically inconsistent with the facts. The quality problems of individual points in the warehouse do not represent the quality of the entire corn warehouse. Through on-site sampling and laboratory testing by a third-party testing agency, the color and odor are normal, and the quality indicators of moisture, impurities, imperfections, etc. all meet the national standards and relevant quality requirements.
In response to recent online reports about the quality problems of the one-off reserve corn auctioned and sold by Qinggang Rongchang Modern Agricultural Development Co., Ltd., the direct storage warehouse outside Zhaodong of China Storage Grain Heilongjiang Branch, China Storage Grain Group sent an investigation on July 12. The team rushed to the local area to conduct an investigation, and the relevant departments supervised the whole process.
After preliminary verification, the quantity and quality problems of the batch of corn reflected in the video are basically inconsistent with the facts. The quality problems of individual points in the warehouse do not represent the quality status of the entire warehouse. The third-party testing agency, Heilongjiang Food Quality and Safety Testing Center, conducts on-site sampling and laboratory testing in accordance with relevant national regulations. The color and odor are normal, and the quality indicators for moisture, impurities, imperfections, etc. are in line with national standards and relevant standards. The quality requirements are basically consistent with the quality indicators when the batch of corn was submitted to the auction target. After checking the surplus corn in this location, the quantity is consistent.
Regarding the issues of "blister food" and "under the sieve" reflected in the video. After verifying with the parties concerned, what she said is "foam food" is a folk name in some places in Heilongjiang. It refers to the fact that corn is late in the growth period due to excessive rain and insufficient light, resulting in insufficient maturity, insufficient grain, and high temperature baking The color-changing grains produced after drying are not corn immersed in water. The on-site sampling inspection did not find that the batch of corn was immersed in water. During the inspection, it was indeed found that there was a sieve at some points at the bottom of the grain pile. After investigation, it was not cleared in time during the warehouse entry process. The sifted material will not affect the quality and quantity of corn in the whole warehouse. If the impurity content exceeds a certain limit stipulated in the standard when leaving the warehouse, the deduction shall be made in accordance with relevant national regulations.
Regarding the video that reflects the fact that the staff of Qinggang Rongchang Modern Agriculture Development Co., Ltd., which is rented and collected at the foreign rental, illegally charged additional loading fees, etc., after the investigation is basically true, the next step will be handled according to law. If it is found in the verification that the employees of the directly affiliated enterprises of Sinograin have violations of rules and regulations, the group company will deal with the responsible persons in accordance with the rules and regulations.
China Storage Grain Group Company said that it will continue to do a good job of policy-based grain supervision and sales and storage, and maintain national food security. Thank you from all walks of life for your supervision.
