State Grain Bureau

On November 24, 1999, the State Grain Reserve Bureau was reorganized into the State Grain Bureau and the China National Grain Reserve Management Corporation [zh].^[1][2] The State Council mandated the State Grain Bureau to undertake the responsibilities of grain reserve management and macro-control in 2000.

The Decision of the First Meeting of the 13th National People's Congress on the Institutional Reform Program of the State Council was enacted by the First Meeting of the Thirteenth National People's Congress on March 17, 2018, thereby approving the Institutional Reform Program of the State Council. The National Food and Strategic Reserves Administration is established by the program. The National Development and Reform Commission is responsible for management. Concurrently, the State Grain Bureau was abolished.^[3][4][5][6]
