After the beginning of spring, preparations for spring ploughing have been carried out from south to north in various places, and the demand for related funds has also increased rapidly.
The reporter learned from the Agricultural Bank of China and the Postal Savings Bank of China that the two banks have prepared more than 250 billion yuan for this year's spring ploughing.
In Wu Village, Longmen County, Huizhou City, Guangdong Province, villagers have already started clearing their fields and buying agricultural materials.
In order to buy seeds and fertilizers, Zhong Jianwen, a rice grower, applied to the bank for a loan of 300,000 yuan in the morning.
That afternoon, the bank's account manager came to his field.
Zhong Jianwen, a rice grower: This year, it has expanded by several tens of acres. If it is several tens of acres, it will be far-fetched for one's own ability to bear the funds.
After checking the newly added area and communicating about the use of the funds, the account manager sent the information back to the bank on the spot. After a while, Zhong Jianwen's loan was approved.
Account Manager of Agricultural Bank of China: Your loan has been approved and you can use it at any time.
This spring, the Agricultural Bank of China plans to provide more than 150 billion yuan of loans for spring ploughing preparations, mainly in key areas such as grain production, arable land protection, seed industry revitalization, and production and circulation of agricultural materials, so as to fully meet the demand for spring ploughing preparation funds.
In order to ensure that the farming season is not missed, the Agricultural Bank of China also requires its branches to establish a "green channel" for credit services for spring ploughing and preparation, and implement credit approval priority acceptance and settlement, so as to meet the capital needs of farmers, family farms, and large professional households to the greatest extent.
In addition, the Postal Savings Bank of China has also confirmed that it plans to provide 100 billion yuan in loans for spring ploughing this year.
