The afforestation fund levy cancels the decline in production costs of papermaking enterprises

In the near future, the Ministry of Finance issued the "Notice on Cancellation, Suspension and Integration of Some Government Fund Projects and Other Related Issues" (hereinafter referred to as "Notice"), and announced that the Yulin Fund will be levied from February 1, 2016. It will be reduced to zero, and financial departments at all levels will be required to do a good job in fund guarantee work, and ensure the cultivation, protection and management of local forest resources by increasing the central government's balanced transfer payments, central financial forestry subsidies, and local governments to increase budgetary support. Work is going on normally.

Recently, the Ministry of Finance issued the "Notice on Cancellation, Suspension and Integration of Some Government Fund Projects and Other Related Issues" (hereinafter referred to as "Notice"), announcing that the quota for the Yulin Fund will be reduced from February 1, 2016 to Zero, and require the financial departments at all levels to do a good job in fund guarantee work, and ensure the local forest resources cultivation, protection and management work by increasing the central government's balanced transfer payments, the central government's forestry subsidy funds, and the local government's efforts to increase budget support. Carry out.

It is understood that the history of the collection of the Yulin Fund has been for decades. For a long time, in order to cultivate and develop forest resources, the state has proposed a policy of forestry and forestry to restore China's forest vegetation and improve ecology. The environment plays an important role. The current "Forest Law" stipulates that the collection of the Yulin Fund must be earmarked for the cultivation, protection and management of forest resources, and shall be calculated at a rate not exceeding 10% of the sales revenue of forest products. Now, after the cancellation of the charging policy, for papermaking enterprises with forest land resources, it will undoubtedly greatly reduce the cost of raw materials! Only this one can save more than 10 million yuan per year for papermaking enterprises with large forest land.

According to the data, in 2015, the total output value of the national forestry industry reached 5.81 trillion yuan. The huge forestry economy has made the forestry fund an important fiscal revenue for local government departments. However, due to the inconsistency of the levy of the Yulin Fund, the levy standards vary from place to place, and there are more and more chaotic levies. With the continuous development of the market economy, this system has damped the enthusiasm of forest farmers and forest enterprises to a certain extent. . Pan Rongqing, a large-scale eucalyptus planter in Qingyuan, said that the abolition of the Yulin Fund is very beneficial to the development of forestry and will greatly enhance the enthusiasm of forestry practitioners. Pan Rongqing planted more than 1,000 mu of eucalyptus. According to his estimation, if the Yulin Fund is not cancelled, 1000 mu will pay about 600,000 yuan for the Yulin Fund, an average of 600 yuan per mu, and the return policy will be paid 300,000 yuan. In this way, it really saves him a lot of cost. Pan Rongqing believes that in addition to the Yulin Fund, timber harvesting indicators are also a prominent problem. The logging target can only be applied when it needs to be felled, and it is a one-year period, and it will be re-applied in the second year. "This will consume a lot of manpower and material resources, causing the commercial forest to miss a suitable sales period, and the application for harvesting indicators of commercial forests should be more standardized," said Pan Rongqing. In addition, Pan Rongqing is concerned that although the Yulin Fund has been cancelled, due to the long-standing confusion of its levy standards, it may be transferred to other fees and disguised charges. In this regard, the "Notice" stipulates that all regions and relevant departments must strictly implement the regulations and stipulate that government fund projects that are cancelled or suspended shall not be delayed or refused to be executed for any reason, and may not continue to be collected in disguise of other names. It is not allowed to expand the scope of collection, increase the collection standard or add any additional fees.

According to industry analysts, although the State Council has announced the relevant regulations for the abolition of the Yulin Fund, the collection of the forestry fund by the Forest Law has not been abolished. Therefore, the cancellation of the Yulin Fund should be written into the Forest Law as soon as possible. Abolition of the afforestation fund.
