China News Service, Shaxian County, Fujian, March 26 (Reporter Lin Chunyin) The 61-year-old Hong collective took out a bunch of yellow silk cloth from the black bag he carried with him and untied it. It turned out to be a thick pile of forest tickets.

This is the asset he has saved most of his life in forestry, and it is also his "reassurance."

　　Hong Collective is a villager in Lishu Village, Xiamao Town, Sha County, Sanming City, Fujian Province. At one time, 4800 acres of mountain forest were under the forest, and he experienced various ups and downs caused by the unclear property rights of mountain forests.

After the implementation of Shaxian’s “forest ticket system” reform, the stack of forest tickets is like cash printed with denominations, which can be circulated and pledged locally, so that the Hong collective “reassured”.

　　On March 23, Xi Jinping, General Secretary of the CPC Central Committee, President of the State, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission, who was investigating in Sanming, came to Shaxian Rural Property Rights Exchange Center and expressed his positive exploration of Shaxian County's collective forest rights system reform (referred to as "forest reform") over the years sure.

　　Sanming is a key forest area in southern China, with a forest coverage rate of 78.73%.

In 2002, the then governor of Fujian Province, Xi Jinping, led the promotion of forest reform and instructed to "turn from the mountain to the mountain like the household contract responsibility system."

By dividing mountains into households and equalizing forests to people, "mountains determine power, trees determine roots, and people are centered."

In the past 20 years, Sanming, as an important source of China's forest reform, has innovated mechanisms, activated resources, and continued to deepen forest reform.

　　Shaxian County Party Secretary Yang Xingzhong introduced the forest reform to General Secretary Xi Jinping at the Shaxian Rural Property Rights Exchange Center.

In an interview with a reporter from Chinanews.com, he said that the Shaxian Forestry Reform is a problem-oriented exploration in response to the needs of the people.

　　With a rotation period of nearly 30 years, where does the forest farmer's money come from?

How to maintain the transferred management rights?

What if the villagers go out to the snack bar in Kaisha County, and the mountains and forests are deserted, and what to do with a single family?

Yang Xingzhong said that these issues are called for by forest farmers and urgently need to deepen reforms.

"After listening to the report, the general secretary said that the reform methodology of crossing the river by feeling the stones is not outdated, nor will it be outdated."

　　When meeting General Secretary Xi Jinping at the Rural Property Rights Exchange Center of Sha County, Wei Fasong, a forest farmer in Fenggang Township, Sha County, was bidding for a forest listing.

He contracted 116 acres of collective forest land in 2005. In the past, it was difficult to obtain loans and high interest rates. "If you lack money, you can only sigh at the woods." Now the forest land is estimated at nearly 580,000 yuan (RMB, the same below). With the money, he plans to go to Hefei. Opened two Shaxian snack bars in succession with Xi'an.

　　"Have you ever been thinned or loaned? What's the income? Is it'you can do it' when you come to do things? How much has the woodland assessed and can't it be easily sold?" Wei Fasong told reporters, and the general secretary asked him about this one after another. Question, "These questions show that the general secretary knows forestry well and cares about forest farmers. The general secretary also wishes me a smooth sale."

　　Forest farmer Zhang Zu Nuan also applied for two registrations of forest rights transfer at the Sha County Rural Property Rights Exchange Center on the same day.

Zhang Zunuan’s family forest farm expanded from 220 acres to nearly 1,000 acres in 17 years. He said that the general secretary’s remarks on the forest reform made him feel "very enthusiastic", "I have a family forest farm and use the trading center. Services and resources, forest land will become more prosperous."

　　In the past ten years, Shaxian pioneered forest rights mortgage loans and introduced the mortgage-free "Fulin Loan" to break the problem of forest farmers' loan loans; focus on the development of the forest economy and the implementation of scientific logging.

In response to the "single-family-single-family" problem of abandoning mountain forests, Shaxian encourages the development of new forestry management entities.

　　The pile of silk cloth-wrapped forest tickets is exactly the Hong Collective's equity income certificate in the joint venture mountain farm.

"The words of the general secretary made me feel very practical." The Hong Collective used forest economy to grow Dendrobium officinale and other precious medicinal materials.

　　"With the forest ticket, the tree grows on the mountain, and the people are busy under the mountain. I take the forest ticket to make snacks everywhere, and still pay dividends." Yang Xingzhong said, this "lin ticket" with the tree in his pocket, "in the'lushui A bridge is built between "Qingshan" and "Jinshan Yinshan"."

　　Nowadays, Fujian supports the development of Sanming's green finance, builds the Sanming provincial-level green finance reform pilot zone, assists the construction of Fujian's national ecological civilization pilot zone, and builds a national collective forestry comprehensive reform pilot demonstration zone.

　　"Now it's more lively. We are already exploring a cooperation mechanism between production and villages and people with production." Xie Rugen, head of the Guanzhuang State-owned Forest Farm in Shaxian County, who has been in the industry for 37 years, said that the forest land will not be abandoned, but the yield will be better. "Become a living water for rural revitalization."

　　The forest health industry is also beginning to take shape in Shaxian County.

Zhang Min, the person in charge of the Mayan Forest Health Care Base in Shaxian County, said that the base has launched a "forest + diet therapy slimming" model, which has opened up a certain market.

　　Forest property reform, turning green into gold.

Since 2014, the forestry output value of Shaxian County has increased by 9.23 billion yuan, and the annual per capita income of farmers involved in forests has increased by 126%.

Le Daiming, deputy director of the Shaxian Forestry Bureau, believes that this is a bonus released by the forest reform, which can be called "awakening the sleeping mountains."
