Hebei Weichang Land Tax Bureau Five Initiatives To Support The Construction Of New Countryside

Weichang County is located in the northernmost part of Hebei province. The total area of the county is 9219 square kilometers. It is the largest county in Chengde. It is the famous royal hunting court in the Qing Dynasty. It is now the seat of national Forest Park and provincial nature reserve.

Under the influence of geographical environment and natural conditions and specific historical background, Weichang County is a typical large agricultural county, a newly rising tourist scenic spot and a poverty-stricken county in the country.

In recent years, under the leadership of the county Party committee and county government, the Weichang County economy has made new contributions to the six pillar industries of "sweet potato, electric and mineral tourism".

In 2006, after the announcement of the Central Document No. 1, all levels of government in the Weichang County, all fronts, and all functional departments began to act, contributing to speeding up the construction of new socialist countryside in Weichang County.

The Weichang land tax bureau, which is responsible for raising the main tasks of Weichang County, is one of them. Since the 2004 central government's first "Document No. 1" to the present three years, the Weichang County Land Tax Bureau has always supported the work of "three rural issues" as the focus of fiscal and tax collection and management in agricultural counties. This year, the Bureau introduced five measures to assist the development of agricultural economy in Weichang County, contributing to the construction of new socialist countryside in Weichang County.

We should strengthen tax collection and management, provide financial support for the construction of new countryside. In order to strengthen the collection and management efforts and ensure the government's financial funds for the new rural construction, the Weichang County land tax bureau should take a scientific approach to the tax source assessment and management in the scientific and meticulous way of taxation. This year, 1~6 realized the local tax revenue of more than 5097 yuan, an increase of 83% over the same period last year.

We should pay attention to the green industry and steadily implement the preferential tax policies concerning agriculture. The leading industry of the county's economy is "potato, vegetable and mineral tourism", which refers to potato planting and processing industry, dairy farming and processing industry, time difference vegetable planting and processing industry, wind power generation, mining and tourism.

These industries, which are closely related to the construction of new countryside, are the foundation for the development of farmers and rural economy in Weichang County. In order to encourage and support the development of "green industry" and support the construction of new countryside in Weichang County, the Weichang Local Taxation Bureau has conducted in-depth investigation and evaluation of the six major industries, and submitted research reports to the county Party committee and county government several times, effectively combining the preferential policies of the state's agriculture with the local actual conditions.

So that the green industry in the county can be effectively developed.

Pinfield red pine Wind Power Generation Co., Ltd. is the first wind power investment enterprise in the county. In order to support the "green energy construction" and promote the new energy construction in the vast rural area, the paddock Tax Bureau strictly examines the depreciation years of the domestic and imported types of wind turbines through the tracking and management of the project from the beginning of the wind power generation to the construction of the wind power generation projects, strictly audit the project of the domestic and imported types of wind turbines, and adjust the tax policy according to the actual situation of the project, and encourage the construction and development of the "green energy" in the tax policy.

According to statistics from the Weichang County Land Tax Bureau, as of June 2006, the bureau had reduced the income tax for the Korean pine wind power by 2 million 490 thousand yuan.

In the month of 2006 1~6, only the wind power enterprises achieved about 12000000 yuan in tax payment, becoming a new tax growth point in the local economy.

At the same time, the paddock land tax bureau implements the tax policy to increase farmers' income.

The value-added threshold for the sale of dairy products, such as animal husbandry products, time difference vegetables, fruits and foodstuff, will be raised to 5000 yuan per month, and individual income tax on the sales of self produced agricultural products entering various markets will not be collected.

Individual income tax shall not be collected on the income obtained by the peasants in the special agricultural products and in the farming, aquaculture and husbandry industries.

In August 22, 2006, the villagers of Qian Huai village in Hari ha Township, Weichang County, Weichang County, ushered in a group of tourists from the Hebei provincial land tax system. This is already the guest of the fourth batch of land tax system that has been entertained by guests at home since July.

How can an obscure farmer bring so many distinguished guests, farmer Qian Yu told us the secret.

He said: "there is no real help from the local tax bureau of Weichang County. There will be no rural tourism restaurant with my money and jade, and there will be no more than 10000 yuan of sideline income every year."

Since the beginning of this year, the Local Taxation Bureau of Weichang County has responded to the call of the state to build a new rural society. It really helps the poor farmers find out the way to develop the third industry outside the agricultural production. The Bureau has formed a support team with 3 poor farmers on the side of the tourist road to encourage and support the farmers to make "farm trips". The board has not only donated 2000 yuan and provided 1 sets of disinfectant counters, but also helped the hotel develop the series of specialties carefully, and has carried out meticulous guidance on all aspects of environmental sanitation. In order to ensure the thriving business of the hotel, the Bureau promised to cooperate with the long-term source recommendation to support and promote the development of the farm tour.

Li Xueliang, deputy director of the Local Taxation Bureau of Weichang County, believes that many units believe that helping farmers is a matter of giving thousands of yuan to farmers.

Such help can not really help farmers get rich. In order to make farmers really rich, they should not only help them choose the way to make money, but also guide farmers carefully at the beginning stage in the aspects of market experience, business methods and lawful operation, so as to guide farmers to participate in market competition and gradually get rid of helping themselves to achieve independent management. Helping a household to become rich is not a real help. By helping one successful experience, we can sum up the general experience that is suitable for more farmers, and turn experience into theory, so that more farmers can get rich. This is the real help.

According to statistics, by the end of 7, the stock enterprises in Weichang County have accumulated 31 million 40 thousand yuan in local taxes, an increase of 101.43% over the previous year, accounting for 60.9% of all local taxes, and the share of joint-stock enterprises in local taxes increased by 5.8 percentage points.

According to introduction, in order to create a tax environment suitable for the development of agricultural industrialization, Weichang County Local Taxation Bureau has worked hard to scientifically manage and increase services to taxpayers.

The Bureau has scientifically classified more than 300 agricultural enterprises in the county, and has carried out tax assessment and tax interviews in an all-round way to solve some practical problems of enterprises.

Due to changes in the tax environment, since 2005, all kinds of agricultural shareholding enterprises in the county have increased by 126, contributing about 5000000 yuan to local taxes.

Jiabao biological Co., Ltd., who invested in marigold processing in Keller Township, Weichang County, encountered difficulties in purchasing raw materials. Local farmers sprinkled water in their products to increase their weight. More individual farmers had put the newly picked flowers in water and soaked in the water, and then brought them to a lot of trouble. Wang Shuping, director of the tax bureau of kler gully, the local tax bureau of the Weichang District, learned about these situations when they sent tax registration certificates to enterprises, and promptly wrote the briefs to the local government, which attracted attention and solved problems for enterprises.

Weichang Weichang County is a large vegetable producing county. This year, the vegetable industry in Weichang County has been hit by a weak market, and the foreign brokers who come to buy vegetables are much fewer than in previous years. "Selling vegetables is difficult" has become a major problem for local vegetable farmers.

In order to help farmers solve the problem of selling vegetables and help foreign brokers to acquire knowledge of the market and source of goods, the new tax authorities of the local tax bureau of Weichang County make use of the advantages of collecting taxes in the countryside to understand the local situation. They are free to collect taxes, explain the source of goods for foreign brokers who come to buy vegetables, and try to solve the problems encountered by foreign brokers in the process of product acquisition, and become the volunteer information staff of vegetable brokers in other fields, and become the volunteer propagandist of the vast vegetable farmers in the paddock.

Because of its effective measures and considerate service, the tax environment created by the local tax bureau of Weichang County has won the recognition of the vast number of taxpayers. The investment amount of agriculture related enterprises has increased by nearly 50% compared with that before 2003.

Only corporate income tax increased by 705% over the same period last year.

In the speech, Xie Xuren, director general of the State Administration of Taxation, pointed out in his speech: "actively studying and improving the policy of supporting agriculture by taxation.

According to the requirements of the central government, the tax department should study and improve the tax policy and increase the support for the new rural construction.

The first is to study the tax policy to promote the construction of modern agriculture.

Study and implement tax policies to encourage enterprises to establish agricultural R & D centers, and promote innovation and pformation of agricultural science and technology.

Study and improve the export tax rebate policy for agricultural products and improve the international competitiveness of China's agricultural products.

We should study and formulate corresponding tax preferential policies, promote the development of biomass energy and bio based materials, cultivate biomass industry, and actively develop conservation agriculture.

We will improve the value-added tax system for the acquisition and processing of agricultural products, and carry out pilot projects for value-added tax reform of agricultural products.

The two is to study the tax policy to promote farmers' continuous income increase.

We should use tax policies to promote the construction of small towns and the development of county economy, and support the rural specialized cooperative economic organizations to play the role of serving the "three rural issues", pfer surplus labor force in rural areas, expand employment, develop diversified economy and increase farmers' income.

In order to study the tax policy that is beneficial to the development of agriculture, rural areas and farmers, we explore new ways to support agriculture through taxation, and link the policy of supporting agriculture with the actual situation of Weichang County by the State Administration of Taxation and the tax administration departments at all levels. The grass-roots tax administration personnel of the Weichang land tax bureau, go deep into the enterprises and understand the situation, and have written over 30 research reports on the development of agricultural industrialization to the government, making full use of tax policies to regulate the functions of the economy, cultivating leading enterprises for the agricultural product processing industry, and guiding farmers to take the new mode of cooperative economy.
