丰储仓作为宋代贮存朝廷封桩粮食之所,最早设置于高宗绍兴二十六年(1156),其后在孝宗、理宗朝两次扩建。其粮食来源主要采用“置场收籴”的方式,存粮大多作为赈恤粮、军粮,至南宋中后期还用于供奉皇室、寺观等其它支费,逐渐偏离了设置之初“备水旱,佐军粮”的目的。丰储仓的设置不仅给国家财政管理带来诸多不便,而且加重了百姓的负担,但在赈恤灾伤、稳定社会秩序上起着一定的积极作用。
As the national storage warehouse of grain sealed by the royal court in Song dynasty, set first in the twenty-sixth year of Gaozong Shaoxing (1156) , Feng storage warehouse was expanded twice during Xiao Zong and Li Zong period. The grain mainly came from ^purchase^ ,mostly for military and pensionary use, but gradually for royal family, temple use, deviating from the o-riginal purpose of “ supporting the army and guarding against flood and drought”. The establishment of Feng storage warehouse not only brought inconvenience to the national financial management, but also increased the burden of the people. Yet it played a positive role in the disaster relief and stability of the social order.
