Most regions of the country are vigorously promoting rice drying machine. Agricultural machinery subsidies are effective and important measures, but the boundary line of subsidy is hard to draw. The average price of grain dryers is very high, so it is difficult for ordinary farmers to afford them. After purchasing by large dealers and cooperatives, the utilization rate is not high. It is not used a few times a year, but it takes up funds and space. However, processing enterprises and institutions have demand for the use of rice drying machine.
What is the subsidy trend?
近年来，农机补贴趋势由购置补贴转向工时补贴。比如秸秆还田补贴。事实上，水稻烘干机的普及率并不高，但在收获季节却非常需要。然而，水稻烘干机设备的成本较高，很多农民买不起。如果国家或地方财政能够在农民晒粮时补贴一定比例的费用，粮食损失率将会在一定程度上降低。
What is the improvement direction?
智能监控。即使未来对粮食烘干经营实行补贴，经营监管也会是一个难题。如果他们不提前采取对策，欺诈行为就会猖獗。
个人认为，借助物联网的智能监控，可以减少或避免烘干操作中的造假现象。
Each rice drying machine can be equipped with remote monitoring equipment. Management agencies, manufacturers, and users can see detailed data of drying operations on computers and smart phones, such as crop types, weights, and dehydration rates. A lot of companies are developing monitoring devices that can transmit and display related data in time.
