and what effect does this delay have on the farmers and their activities, and what effect can it have on the amount of production that we will have on the basic agricultural products this crop year. if you are interested , stay with us until the end of this discussion , follow the economic table on khabar network, please, thank you. well, you are with the economics desk , we want to talk about the guaranteed purchase price of basic agricultural products, let's look at some statistics. three of them, two of them don't have the pricing council for the establishment of support policies for basic agricultural products

. according to the law, the head of the council is javad, the minister of agriculture, and you can see that the minister of economic affairs has the head of the budget plan organization. because now, the purchase price must be guaranteed to be budgeted . the head of the agricultural union organization of the union center for rural cooperatives , engineering system organization, 2 expert farmers, the head of the national wheat farmers foundation, and 2 people from the parliament's agriculture commission, who are in this council as supervisory members . what does this council do? let's see the next picture. one of the main duties of this council is to come in every in every the year is in the picture and we will see it together. every year , i ask you to determine the guaranteed purchase rate of agricultural products according to the criteria. the guaranteed price of basic agricultural products is approximately 32%, the most important of which is wheat, for example, according to the criteria of actual production costs plus conventional profit. one, i would like to present to you the inflation number

announced by the statistics center, maintaining the relationship between inside and outside and the total cost in relation to the imported product and tips. i don't know anymore, i have to ask them about the production costs and all the other things that are there. one point that is much more important is the time of announcing the guaranteed purchase price of wheat, when it should be, what the law told us, article d, note d of the same law that i presented to you. he says that this council should hold a meeting to finalize the price for the guaranteed price 3 months before the start of the new crop year . it is supposed to start on the 20th, and i am waiting for your presence. it has been 7 days, but i have not yet announced anything i did not get the news from some members of the pricing council that in 1403, since the beginning of the year, until now, they have not guaranteed purchase prices, for example. a meeting was not held a month

ago, for example, there was a meeting for benj , and this work has not been completed yet. in the program, we want to address this, why did this happen , why was the meeting not held, why did the minister not hold the meeting? has the minister not announced or other things that we will ask questions about, let's see the next picture together, why is it so important to announce this on time in the statistics? we can see together in more detail and see when a good price is announced, it is announced on time. irrespective of the weather variable, assuming now how much the weather has an effect, but look, i have put these two figures together so that we can see both the production and the purchase price of the guarantee of wheat in a 10-year period, whenever the price was good and it was on time. our farmer has produced more . you can see the 94-95 crop year . you can see the year 1401 and 1402. the same thing has happened in the last two years. attracted to use other products instead.

i gave you an example of using wheat. why is wheat important? because some of our other basic agricultural products, such as rapeseed , are priced from wheat. in different years , there was a delay in announcing the crop year last year. there was a delay of 3 months in 1402, 2 months in 1418, 8 months in the cubit year of 1400, according to the law, and the rest of them were returned until 94 out of 41 days, up to 7 months, and naturally, this can disrupt our agriculture. maybe needy if he imports , he will ruin the planning of our farmers and the thousands of reasons that we have talked about in various programs and we have said about its bad effects, how much this delay can be harmful to the country. i prepared a report with my colleague in the agricultural department of sada and vasima news agency. in continuation of the same introduction that i gave you, we will see it together, we will come back and we will start the conversation with the guests of the program.

there is no news about the guaranteed price of wheat. the government should announce the guaranteed price of wheat before sowing so that the farmer can know the price and decide whether he wants to plant wheat or rapeseed. or any other product, according to the law , the government is obliged to determine the price of the next year's guaranteed purchase of basic agricultural products by the pricing council by the end of july every year. the executive philosophy of the policy of guaranteed purchase and guaranteed price for basic agricultural products is actually to assure farmers for the continuity of production. members. the pricing council for basic agricultural products consists of the minister of agricultural jihad, the minister of economy, the head of the budget program organization and 6 people from non-governmental organizations in the agricultural sector. if the farmer is sure that the price of his products has been announced. and it is light weight

please tell me what crop i should plant and how much to plant. this is effective in his income, but when the prices are announced, it happens late. a contract farmer is going away. the farmer cannot do the planning due to his own economy and we will have 100 percent loss of the crop. we have some complaints from the parliament, we do not have enough supervision over the laws it enacts. in the meetings of the pricing council of basic agricultural products , two members of the parliament are present and observe without the right to vote. we try to show tasks from the perspective. let 's follow this issue with our own monitoring, the pricing of wheat and everything another product that should be purchased by the government as a guarantee, or finally, the processes that should be carried out in that council should be done more quickly, according to the head of the parliament's agriculture commission

, the price of basic agricultural products should be determined and announced in a timely manner up to 30% of the production. production is effective. alireza shakti, radio and television news agency. yes , we saw mr. alireza shoukti's report from the agriculture and village group of sed and sima news agency . here in our studio, mr. najafi, deputy deputy director of planning of the ministry of agriculture, javad, is also present, as well as mr. atollah hashemi, a member of the price council. the introduction of agricultural products, mr. peyman philosophi, the vice chairman of the parliament's agriculture commission , will be added to your presence on the internet , and we will talk with him. i also greet all the guests of the program, and i would like to start with mr. najafi. and this question. what did the javad ministry of agriculture do to determine the price of the guaranteed purchase price for basic agricultural duties this year, in the name of allah , the merciful, the merciful, i am also at your service, dear guest and all the dear people of iran, i hope that wherever they are, they are doing well in this warm month of august

, god willing, you will see the process. select the determination process the guaranteed price is the same as it was in your report since 2009 due to correction. the law was handed over to the council under the title of the council for pricing and adoption of supportive policies in the ministry of agriculture. in my opinion, if i want to look from the outside, this council is actually a progressive council because at least 3 of them are people who are directly from the private sector means public participation, which is the slogan of this year. almost a few years ago, the ministry of agriculture implemented this in its most important policy. this council is formed according to the law from different committees, it has a pricing committee the producer is responsible for the price calculation and forecasting the prices for the next year, which in a process asks for opinions and polls from the provinces. finally

, the prices are summed up and come to the commission, and after the commission, it is brought up in the sahan shura, and naturally, the price it is announced by the minister of agriculture. the reason or philosophy is that they always try to announce the prices before starting the cultivation because there is a phenomenon in the economy called the spider plant phenomenon that the farmer usually decides to plant according to the prices of the previous year. and wanting this somewhat up to date do it for the farmer to have an effect on his decision to cultivate, but for various reasons that really have different reasons every year, the dynamics of the economy , the inflation rates that are constantly changing, it is usually difficult to bargain in the council to reach a single and specific price. for this reason, you can see the fixed time when, for example , it was in your chart now, in the same way that in different years , this rate is actually announced late

, although it is questioning its original philosophy , but sometimes because it always tends to it is an increase and naturally, it is actually a bargaining from the side of the ministry agriculture and from the side of the private sector. the increase in prices has caused that now, to some extent , the support of the agricultural sector can be seen in it . this is clearly what was the reason for this year's delay. well, naturally, one of the reasons was the change of parliament. it changes and there is a change of government itself . naturally, there is a famous term because when governments change , they say it is a lame duck, it causes things to be done with interruptions and delays . in fact, this year's delay to it was because of the change of the government and the change of the parliament, which naturally both of them have main opinions in this council, that's why. there was a delay , this meeting was not held at all to see that the price calculations have been done, but

the discussion and bargaining has not yet been done in the commission for him to enter the stage of the council. due to the fact that they are not a supervisory body, the institution does not even make the meeting quorum. naturally, the government is changing, not because of it the fact that it was changed last year was 50 days late last year, i will finally say the reason is that because of these reasons, the economy is always dynamic, which causes that there are always worries, for example, the changes in the inflation rate that happen outside the sector , there are these delays that this year, these two reasons have been added to the previous ones. thank you very much, mr. hashemi. please give your opinion. you, who are a member of the pricing council , what do you see as the most important reasons for this delay? in the name of god, you are right.

unfortunately, we could not act according to the law when there was a council and before the establishment of the council, after the establishment of the council, there were two important factors that prevented me from holding these meetings on time. first of all, i will tell you the reason for this year, the most important reason is the shortcoming of the parliament, because the parliament elected these two supervisors but did not introduce them, as you said, it has no effect , because the session becomes official with the supervision of the members of the parliament, that is, two supervisors must be present in the supervision sessions. do it on the good implementation of the law, the main reason at least. three or four years ago, that is , the last 3-4 years, when the meetings were not announced on time

, i believe it was the negligence of the program organization and it has been the ministry of economic affairs and finance since 2019, when this council was formed, only once was the head of the program organization who was present at the meeting, and the same time he was the minister of economic affairs and finance , which means that the law requires that the members of the council be present in person. they do not have the right to represent anyone else. the minister of economic affairs and finance will not be present in the specialized commissions in the council itself, which is the main decision-making center of the head of the budget planning organization. this meeting is naturally questioned from a legal point of view. that means , i believe, the budget program organization and the ministry of affairs eq. in spite of the fact that the council's decisions are based on the decisions

of the legal government board and the economic council, their representatives do not participate. the representative does not have the right to vote. legally , that means the council becomes official with the presence of the persons specified in the law. the past i protested this issue to the ministers when there were 3 or 4 people as the head of the council, that sir, when he was the head of the program organization , he did not show up. they refuse to come what is the reason? in my opinion, the side of the program organization and the ministry of economic affairs and finance really have an import side. this means that

there is a belief in minimum wheat for domestic production and self-reliance and self-sufficiency in this sector does not really exist. now in my parenthesis i would like to add this point that since we have a name, we are going from the ministry and you are raising some points about them. in our program, until the end of the program , each of these home ministries will have the opportunity to present their representatives and explanations, but the cases that i say that it is completely defensible in meetings who attend either themselves or their representatives. their reliance was on the fact that we can import at a much lower price than the domestic purchase price, which means that this shows the side of the government sector towards this council, which was a very good decision that we had for years. we were looking for it, but the producer, who is one of

the two main buying and selling parties, is already present. it didn't exist , which means that this public sector can't really tolerate the presence of the private sector because of this, one of the main reasons is the non-attendance of the head of the organization and the minister of economic affairs for the past years for 1403 meetings at all. it was arranged that an invitation letter, for example, from the minister of agricultural jihad, which is the statement of the meeting in the agricultural year of 1403 1404, which should have been announced by the end of july, that is, 27 days before, two basic issues. one of the things that happened regarding the executive branch was that some activities were carried out for a while and the second main thing that we pressured the minister that the meeting should be held, sir , was the non-introduction of the representatives of the executive branch to supervise the council, of course, the expert meetings

in the price estimation and the initial process has been implemented , but the council meetings are limited until the house of representatives officially elects its supervisor leave room for doubt, of course, what you are saying is not in accordance with the law. according to the law, the opinion with the presence of the majority of the meeting and the vote of the majority of the meeting is official and its decisions are also valid . the minister of economy will not come this year. if we refuse to hold two meetings and i hope that a decision will be made in your presence , the decision will be made, but his power will decrease, because in the end, the price of financing must be approved in the parliament, where the maghneh authority wants to exercise its own supervision. with the presence of his representatives determine the credit, the price and approve it

. anyway, they also have their own criteria, which is one of the factors. the council is valid according to the rulings and decrees of the ministerial board, but these developments regarding the executive branch, as well as the parliamentary elections and the events that took place , are one of the main factors, of course, they have been short-changed . no , it was the parliament and the program organization, and the ministry of economic affairs and administration, that is, except for the non-governmental sector , which we were, the government sectors are all to blame , that is, except for you, all the other destinations, yes, because they are ready. we requested in writing that the council meetings

be held two months ago, and the prices should be determined, even if this is a contract crop. the most important factor and indicator is price determination, that is , if the price is not determined, you cannot implement contract farming. mr. najafi, one thing that is said is that the pricing council is like an advisory committee, as far as its own philosophy is in the law. do you see it like this , the economic council, the pricing council, is actually the replacement of the economic council, that is, before these prices were used, it came inside due to unfairness. the ministry of home affairs itself was composed of a council. now let me tell you this. we had done a study and we saw that, for example, when you look at the previous decade , before the amendment of the law on guaranteed purchase of wheat, in terms of profitability among 23 crops. it is almost 21, but as a result of these

two years 1401 and 4002, it has improved by almost four steps. the motivation to grow wheat as our most basic crop increased , that is, with all these ups and downs and all these legal delays that you see, in my opinion, the functioning of the council is defensible and in determining prices happen, but look at the point here, because just to make your point , mr. hashemi also raised a point, which is criticizing javad agriculture minister as the head of the council for not meeting on time and the prices. i am sorry for your presence has not been determined , you accept this, see this, i will explain, you see , when the ministry of jihad determines the prices , because this provision of money must be done by the program organization, usually there is a lot of official and unofficial pressure from the program organization. that your prices should not exceed a certain limit go higher, now this is quite typical , you had this kind of pressure this year, naturally, this

is not at all for this year or last year. these pressures are always there, as a result , it will take a little time to negotiate prices or go back and forth. my friends' view is that if we enter these prices, it will be to our benefit. see, you accept this view as a representative. if you have a short-term view, so to speak have it daily, of course, tell anyone to do a simple book calculation with the price, if today , for example, the average price of last month, the global price that i had obtained, the prices are approximately 20 and 60 dollars per ton, the price that we imported wheat in 3 months. 304 dollars, but the price. last year, for example , we imported wheat up to 500 dnd and up to approximately 452 usd . on average, in 2011, with wheat worth 452

usd and the price of land at 58 thousand tomans , it is natural that you should buy from domestic prices, but if you have to if you are 28, your effective rate is not 58,000 tomans, so of course i have i will explain, if you naturally want to look at the rejected prices of 28 and 500 and the price. the current prices of wheat probably have an economic justification for the government because it naturally wants to impose lower costs , but this is a completely transitory and short-term view. supply chains experience severe shocks every three and a half years. that the governments are going in the direction of neutralizing this as much as they can, one of those that can neutralize these impulses in our country is production. internally, especially in strategic products such as the main problem in the wheat supply chain of ardennes is that the government buys wheat for 17 and 500 and it

sells it at a price of 665 tomans or 900 tomans. this conversation explains the price difference. between approximately 17 and 500 until now, an average of 800 tomans causes a heavy subsidy to be loaded in this sector. and the budget plan is always facing problems in providing this amount of subsidies . now, bringing this year into the note, we are not talking about the amount of differences and prices, we are talking about the delay in these events, as you say, for this year and next year. this has not happened before. this is something that has always happened . the minister of roads and agriculture, as the head of the council , is under pressure from public opinion, the private sector, and the production sector. after all, the law has set a time. now , the pressure is always there. in the past years, we held these meetings in different years of god.

what did he accept and finally he is paying the money , but according to his belief, these prices are high and according to the pricing rates he is doing and the prices that actually fell in ukraine and russia after the war, these are with the prices newly, this price is considered high, but it is believed even with the same new prices as yours for last year, we had calculated them. if you calculate the price of wheat in the open market currency, you will still see that there is a significant difference between the received price of domestic wheat and the difference with the price of wheat. you know that this delay will cause the problems that mr. hashemi mentioned. naturally, if

it is announced on time , it will shape the future market and manage the cash pattern better . a farmer like this naturally does not make decisions with his eyes closed, and the prices will change in his own time. he should be declared as a policy agent at all put but the reasons i told you are because of the heavy bargaining that exists between the ministry of jihad, the private sector and the budget program , which results in the delays that you see every year. on our communication line, mr. philsafi, hello to you, we have gone ahead with the program, both mr. najafi and mr. hashemi, as a representative of the ministry of jihad and a member of the agricultural products pricing council, which is one of the important reasons that the pricing of basic agricultural products in the year the current part is done with a delay. i welcome you parliament's delay in announcing the supervisory representatives. in this

council, how much do you accept this issue in the name of allah, the most merciful, the merciful, the merciful, the merciful, the merciful, the merciful, the merciful. greetings , dear viewers of the economic talk program , i wish you success. see, by law , by the end of july every year, the prices of basic and strategic products must be determined by the pricing council. . now, if this issue is tied to the absence of the respected supervisory representatives in the council , i think it is not right because the islamic council has just been formed and this selection process had to be done in order to introduce the dear ones. but the formation of the council

does not require the presence of the supervisory representatives. since the respected representatives of the observer are finally introduced and the opinion of these dear ones can be special , how many council meetings have been held ? a period of time without the presence of supervisory representatives, but the supervisory representatives

may not have done their expertise for the next year completely, but as far as i heard, recently, just a few days ago, the figure related to the purchase of wheat was announced by the national association. the wheat growers of this proposed number were announced because they have to do this every year. the expert work should be done , the production costs should be determined based on the prices of the day of the new crop year and then announced to the pricing council. i think there has been some delay in this field, so we are waiting for it as soon as possible, not only us but also our dear farmers. they are waiting for this price to be finalized as soon as possible to be announced so that they can

legally do what the current program of the parliament and the agriculture commission will do for their next crop year. and to tell you that a point that is very important is that it seems in order for this law to be implemented , there is no serious implementation guarantee. for that, please let me know what measures you are considering. we have used the tools of the parliament to monitor this matter, and i myself will address a reminder to the ministry of jihad on the 12th of august. today, i reminded mr. president of this matter because he was present in the floor of the parliament and presented his own program , and he also said that this work will be done as soon as possible. after all, the government is also in transition

, but in the face of these issues should not cast a shadow on the decisions made legally the right time should be adopted, especially agriculture and the agricultural sector must follow this issue more seriously . now that you are in the process of examining the ministers and you are trusting, how much attention will this matter have to you? how much have you examined it so far ? well, finally, the new minister does not trust the proposed minister yet.
