How old are farmers receiving pensions?
Farmers can get social endowment insurance when they reach 60 years old, which has clear legal provisions and detailed and reliable policy basis. It is one of the three major groups of social endowment insurance system in China (enterprise occupation includes staff of government institutions, freelancers and flexible employees, urban and rural residents). Its legal and policy basis is:
First, Articles 20, 21 and 22 of the social insurance law of the people's Republic of China implemented on July 1, 2011. The new rural social endowment insurance and its financing methods and treatment are clearly defined
Second, the State Council's opinions on establishing a unified basic endowment insurance system for urban and rural residents (GF (2014) No. 8 document) on February 21, 2014. These documents stipulate that urban and rural residents who have reached the age of 16 (excluding students in school), who are not staff members of state organs and institutions, and who are not covered by the basic endowment insurance system of employees, can participate in the endowment insurance of urban and rural residents in the place of household registration.
Specific treatment:
（1） Those who have reached the age of 60 and paid for 15 years in total, and have not received the basic endowment insurance treatment stipulated by the state, can receive the endowment insurance treatment of urban and rural residents (i.e. farmers) on a monthly basis.
（2） Those who have reached 60 years old before February 21, 2014 (i.e. the date of issuance of the State Council document No. 8) will not be charged. From the month of implementation of this opinion, the basic pension of urban and rural residents (i.e. farmers) can be received on a monthly basis.
（3） If the age is less than 15 years from the prescribed age, the payment shall be made year by year, and the supplementary payment is also allowed, and the cumulative payment shall not exceed 15 years.
（4） For those who are over 15 years from the prescribed age, they shall pay the fees on an annual basis, and the cumulative payment shall not be less than 15 years.
（5） The social endowment insurance fund for urban and rural residents (i.e. farmers) consists of individual payment, collective subsidy and government subsidy. The annual payment standard of an individual is from 100 yuan to 1000 yuan, with each standard level difference of 100 yuan, 1500 yuan and 2000 yuan, totaling 12 standards. Farmers can choose the annual payment standard according to their own economic conditions.
