As a subdivision of agricultural machinery, the grain and oil machinery industry is an important part of the high-end intelligent equipment manufacturing industry, one of the country's seven strategic emerging industries. "Last year Anlu was awarded the title of'China's Grain and Oil Machinery Capital'," said Liu Min, Mayor of Anlu, Hubei Province. "The grain and oil machinery industry is one of the four pillar industries in Anlu. The development is rapid. Last year, the output value of Anlu's grain and oil machinery industry accounted for more than one-third of the national market. In the future, Anlu's grain and oil machinery exports will also be at the forefront of the country."

　　The glory of the past

　　my country has a large population and a large demand for food. In 2011, my country's total grain output reached 57.12 million tons. These rich grain and oil resources provide an important material foundation and huge market capacity for the development of my country's grain and oil machinery industry.

　　Anlu City’s grain and oil machinery industry is now able to take the lead in China, and its products sell well both at home and abroad, which has great origins from my country’s previous strategy of vigorously developing the backbone of my country’s grain and oil machinery manufacturing.

　　According to Wang Ruiyuan, the vice chairman of the China Grain Industry Association, my country’s grain and oil machinery industry has experienced half a century of development since its establishment in 1958. In 1965, my country implemented a plan to relocate key enterprises in coastal cities in a planned way. The Shanghai Grain Machinery Factory directly under the Ministry of Grain moved to Anlu County, Hubei Province, and the Beijing Grain Machinery Factory moved to Changzhi City, Shanxi Province. Finally, 7 grain machinery factories directly under the Ministry of Grain, including Anlu and Changzhi, were formed. The development of machinery manufacturing has laid the foundation.

　　It is reported that the Anlu grain and oil machinery industry occupies an important position in the domestic grain and oil machinery industry at that time. The first brand of China's grain and oil machinery, "Dongfanghong" brand grain machinery, born in Anlu, has long been well-known at home and abroad, and its products are exported to more than 30 countries in Southeast Asia. When the former State Councilor Song Jian inspected the Dongfang Hongliang Machinery Company, he inscribed "The grain machinery from here to the world." Now this building has become a must pass for domestic and foreign merchants to enter Anlu on National Highway 316.

　　Although Anlu's grain and oil machinery industry has achieved tremendous development, it still faced many development problems in the 1980s and 1990s, such as the lack of unified organization and management in the industry, insufficient independent research and development capabilities, and innovation capabilities that need to be improved. The product competitiveness in the high-end market is not Strong, this was also a portrayal of the troubled Chinese grain and oil machinery industry at that time.

　　In the 1990s, in order to solve and overcome the historical burdens of state-owned enterprises and the drawbacks of the management mechanism, the national grain authority reformed the management system and ownership of the original state-owned grain and oil industry, including the grain and oil machinery industry. With continuous deepening, my country's grain and oil machinery industry has undergone fundamental changes. Relying on decades of human resources, technical strength and brand accumulation of the old Anlu Grain Machinery Factory in the reform, Anlu City has created a large number of new and outstanding grain and oil machinery manufacturing enterprises.

　　new rise

　　In recent years, as my country's grain and oil machinery industry continues to innovate and apply high, precise, and cutting-edge processing methods, not only the surface flatness and smoothness of the product is almost the same as that of foreign advanced equipment, but the internal quality has also been greatly improved. At present, there are quite a few grain and oil machinery products in our country whose performance and economic and technical indicators have approached or reached the advanced level of similar foreign products.

　　At present, Anlu City in Hubei Province has developed into my country's most important grain machinery processing and manufacturing base. The rise of Yongxiang Grain Machinery is just a microcosm of the new rise of Anlu's grain and oil machinery industry. At present, Anlu's grain and oil machinery industry has undergone restructuring and has split into 34 private grain machinery companies such as Yongxiang, Bishan, Tianxing, Shunchang, Tianming, etc., with an annual output value of more than 1 billion yuan, accounting for 1/3 of the national market share. Anlu has Become the largest grain machinery industry city in China. In May 2010, Anlu City was awarded the title of "National Torch Program Hubei Anlu Specialized Industrial Base of Grain Machinery" by the Ministry of Science and Technology of China. In May 2011, Anlu City was awarded the title of "Capital of China's Grain and Oil Machinery" by the China Agricultural Machinery Industry Association.

　　Liu Min said that now Anlu grain and oil machinery products have been selling well at home and abroad. In order to expand the export of Anlu grain and oil machinery products, the Anlu city government has actively implemented the national export tax rebate policy and increased financial and taxation support to provide Anlu grain and oil machinery products. The development of the machine industry adds new impetus.

　　As the country accelerates the cultivation and development of seven strategic emerging industries during the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period, and increases capital and technology investment, Anlu's grain and oil machinery industry has great potential for future development.
