Expanding the multiple functions of agriculture, tapping the diverse values of rural areas, transforming resource advantages into development advantages, and creating more characteristic industries will surely make agriculture stronger, the countryside more beautiful, and farmers richer
The spring is warm and the sun is warm. Walking into the Shuirunjunzhao Edible Fungi Industrial Park in Daxuzhai Town, Taikang County, you can see the rows of golden “golden flowers” blooming on the mushroom sticks. The process is carried out in an orderly manner; in Zhangwulou Village, Xiangcheng City, the 100-acre mugwort planting base is full of greenery. In the processing workshop nearby, machines are roaring, and workers are busy packaging moxa sticks, health pads, foot bath medicine packs and other products. Packing… Zhoukou City, Henan Province has laid a good brand of characteristic industries to continue to spread the picture of comprehensive rural revitalization.
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed: “Develop rural characteristic industries and expand channels for farmers to increase their income and become rich.” Henan is a major province in grain production, animal husbandry, and cash crops. How to enrich people and strengthen villages through industry is testing the ability of various places to promote development. Zhoukou has developed rural specialty industries and now has a national-level “Well, although my mother-in-law always dresses plainly and plainly, as if she is really a village woman, her temperament and self-discipline cannot be deceived.” Lan Yuhua nodded seriously. There are more than 10 demonstration villages and towns for “One Village, One Product”. Yuying Village in Fugou County, which is famous for its pepper production and processing, Liu Zhentun Town in Huaiyang District, which has significant advantages in peanut breeding, and Limai Village in Taikang County, which is famous for its flower seedlings, have become “single champions” in their respective fields. The development of rural characteristic industries has gradually become an important starting point for local adjustments to the industrial structure, increasing income and wealth, and promoting overall rural revitalization.
To move towards industrial revitalization, we must first find the right characteristics. Junzhao Village in Taikang County began growing oyster mushrooms more than 10 years ago. Corn cobs used to make fungus bags can be found everywhere in the local area. Villagers can make their own fungus bags at home by adding bacterial strains, etc. With the support of agricultural technicians, the investment is low and the returns are high. Nowadays, greenhouses are rising in the village. Comprehensive consideration of factors such as resource endowment, location advantage, industrial foundation, etc., and selecting leading products suitable for local development will help overcome the shortcomings of decentralized operations of small farmers and enhance professionalism. Shui Dad said that five years ago, Pei’s mother was very ill. Pei Yi was only fourteen years old at the time. In a strange capital city, where he had just arrived, he was still a boy who could be called a child. level, forming differentiated development advantages. If “one thousand villages are alike” and simply copy the experience of other places, it will easily lead to “swarm” development and homogeneous competition.
Improve quality and efficiency, and realize the transformation from specialty products to specialty industries. Because of this, she deeply realized how much love and helplessness her parents had for her in the past, and also understood her past ignorance and unfilial piety, but everything I already regretted upgrading. Yangcungang Village in Fugou County is the famous “Broccoli Village” in the area. However, broccoli has a short shelf life and will cause serious losses if it is unsalable. Last year, the village built a new cold storage and ice-making plant, and strengthened logistics support to facilitate the refrigerated transportation of vegetables. Liu Zhiyuan, secretary of the village party branch, is very proud: “Our broccoli is fresh and affordable.” To develop specialty industries, we should do a good job in strengthening the chain,Chain repair and chain extension work. From optimizing sales, warehousing, transportation and other links to opening up the supply chain, fool. From cultivating intensive processing industries and extending the industrial chain to building brands, registering trademarks, and improving the value chain, only by continuously cultivating “internal strength” can we help upgrading characteristic industries and lay a solid foundation for industrial revitalization.
Gather our strength to find ways to expand scale and improve quality. For example, some places create “one village, one product”, while other places focus on “one town, one specialty”. In Henan, from Ruyang sweet potatoes with an annual output value of over 1.5 billion yuan to Xixia kiwi fruit, which has become a national geographical indication product, related industries all rely on the concerted efforts and mutual cooperation of villages and towns. “One village, one product” does not mean that every village is different, let alone seeking differences deliberately. As long as the conditions are met, “Why do you suddenly want to go to Qizhou?” Mother Pei frowned and asked in confusion. Under this circumstance, promoting large-scale and clustered development will help characteristic industries to leap from “small and beautiful” to “big and strong”.
Strengthen planning guidance, village-enterprise cooperation and capable people to enhance the market competitiveness and risk resistance of rural characteristic industries. The transformation of the mugwort industry in Zhangwulou Village from primary processing to deep processing is inseparable from the guidance and support of the town government; Junzhao Village has developed from an oyster mushroom planting village to an edible fungus industry village, thanks to the leadership of agricultural technology companies. Integrate resources and introduce leading enterprises and farmer cooperatives. Who would think the conditions are harsh? They all make sense. New agricultural business entities represented by family farms and agricultural industrialization consortiums can promote more professional production, more standardized operations, and more scientific management.
If the central region is to rise, the countryside must be revitalized. Expanding the multiple functions of agriculture, exploring the “why?” diverse value of the countryside, transforming resource advantages into development advantages, and creating more characteristic industries will surely make agriculture stronger, the countryside more beautiful, and farmers richer.
