In order to ensure that the financial incentive policy is inclined to large-scale and high-quality enterprises, and at the same time, considering the development differences between regions, we have set the minimum quantity requirements. The number of processing enterprises located in the western region is 900,000 units (sets), and the number of processing enterprises located in other regions is 1 million units (sets).

Considering the market affordability and the adjustment period of production and operation of enterprises, a transition period is set aside for the setting of the number requirements for special funds in 2025, and it is planned to set the number requirements to 500,000 units (sets) per year.The Bank of Canada cut interest rates sharply by 50 basis points, suggesting that the pace of monetary easing may be slowed down.
