In Leling City, Shandong Province, this year, the local grain and oil reserve warehouse for summer grain procurement has fully implemented the information system for grain purchase and sales supervision. Farmers can achieve full automation of registration, sampling, weighing, unloading, and settlement by relying on an "intelligent IC card" for grain sales, which is convenient and fast.
During this year's summer grain procurement period, various grain departments in Jiangsu province promoted the connection between purchasing enterprises and grain selling farmers in terms of supply and demand, guiding farmers to sell grain at appropriate prices in a timely manner and enterprises to receive grain in a balanced and orderly manner. In Huai'an City, in order to ensure that grain farmers can receive their grain sales funds in a timely manner, the local government disburses loans based on the number of purchases in the city, following the principle of one-time approval and phased distribution, simplifying loan procedures, ensuring timely and sufficient purchase funds, and ensuring that money is equal to grain.

This year's heavy rainfall has posed a significant challenge to grain storage. In Baixiang County, Hebei Province, local grain reserve enterprises promote the "low-temperature green preservation and storage technology for wheat". By improving the thermal insulation and sealing performance of warehouses, they adopt operations such as winter cold storage, summer supplementary cooling, and stable cooling in spring and autumn to achieve wheat preservation and storage.
According to the dispatch of the State Administration of Grain and Material Reserves, various enterprises have shown high enthusiasm for purchasing recently, with farmers selling grain enthusiastically. The average purchase price of wheat has remained stable at around 1.4 yuan per kilogram, and it is expected that wheat prices will remain generally stable in the later stage, significantly higher than the minimum purchase price level.
