Chinanews.com, Hangzhou, March 31st: Question: "Total prosperity" in rural areas: Why can Zhejiang get out of position?

  Author Chai Yanfei Wang Yifei Qian Chenfei

  The National Fourteenth Five-Year Plan has a clear outline to support Zhejiang's high-quality development and construction of a demonstration zone for common prosperity.

This eastern province, which aims to create an "important window", has ushered in an important historical node.

  Common prosperity is the key to rural areas.

Zhejiang's access to unprecedented opportunities is not unrelated to the outstanding performance of the countryside in high-quality and balanced development.

  Last year, the per capita disposable income of rural residents in the province was 31,930 yuan, ranking first in the country for 36 consecutive years; the income of urban and rural residents was less than 2 for the first time since 1993.

In addition to official statistics, it has also been promoted to "net celebrity" on the Internet, and "How luxurious is the countryside in Zhejiang" on the hot search, and short video topics have been viewed more than 16 million...

  Under the background that rural revitalization has become the focus of "agriculture, rural areas, and farmers" and "solidly promoting common prosperity" has become a major task during China's "14th Five-Year Plan" period, why Zhejiang's rural areas can achieve a leading position on the road to common prosperity and become a perspective of the future of China's rural areas Important window?

People-oriented and reform "genes"

  Zhejiang has seven mountains, two rivers and one land, and its per capita resource possession is not high.

Under such conditions of resource endowment, the level of rural development here has achieved the forefront of the country.

At a deeper level, the "gene" of people-oriented and reform that it has accumulated is exactly the important reason.

  Such characteristics have been manifested at the beginning of reform and opening up.

In the 1980s, Zhejiang changed its agricultural structure from "grain economics and special" to "special economics and grain", giving farmers autonomy in production and operation.

During the same period, the province also encouraged the development of the private economy through reforms and supported farmers to "wash their feet and go ashore" from the fields, leading the first wave of farmers' entrepreneurship in China.

  Gu Yikang, an expert on the Expert Advisory Committee of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and former deputy director of the Zhejiang Provincial Agricultural Office, believes that Zhejiang Province, by respecting the pioneering spirit of farmers and granting farmers the right to free development, stimulated the endogenous motivation for farmers to increase their incomes and become rich.

  Focusing on the people and demanding dividends from reforms, Zhejiang started with such a "worldview" and "methodology" on the road to prosperity in the countryside, and started to accelerate in this century.

  In 2003, in order to expand the development space for rural areas and benefit farmers, the province launched the "Ten Thousand Ten Thousand Project" to start the village renovation and construction campaign centered on improving the rural ecological environment and improving the quality of life of farmers.

Over the past ten years, through its continuous deepening implementation, beautiful villages have gradually become Zhejiang's "golden name card" and "new engine" for rural development.

  Panshan Road in Incheon Town, Pan'an County, 40 minutes to tell outsiders the geographical disadvantages of Tianshan Village.

But in this high-altitude village, along with the spring light, foreign vehicles stopped one after another in front of the homes.

  According to Yang Bao, secretary of the village party branch, Tianshan Village was originally a "hollow village" with a collective debt of more than 1 million yuan. Driven by the "Ten Million Project", the village is now built through a beautiful village to improve the appearance of the village and help the villagers. Opening 25 farmhouses and homestays has made it the norm to find a bed in peak season.

  "Driven by tourism, the sales of agricultural products by villagers can reach about 15,000 yuan, and the collective fund balance of the village is more than 5 million yuan. We are still building a thousand acres of camellia base, hoping to further change the disadvantages of high altitude through the combination of agriculture and tourism. Advantages of health and leisure." Yang Bao said.

  In order to allow the vitality of various elements such as land, labor, capital, technology, and management, to flourish in the rural areas, a series of concrete reforms have also begun in Zhejiang to continue to release development dividends.

  In the fourth quarter of last year, the Rural Commercial Bank of Qingtian County, Lishui City issued the country's first “GEP loan” of 5 million yuan to the local ecological village company established in Zhenbu Town, which brought financial water to the town’s rural development.

In Lishui, in order to effectively break the financing bottleneck of rural farmers while protecting the ecological environment, all parts of the city have set up "Two Mountains" funds, established "Two Mountains" banks, cultivated "Two Mountains" companies, and launched "Ecological Loans" and "GEP Loans". "And other green financial products, the city has carried out a total of 5,123 ecological property rights transactions, realizing that ecological products can be priced and tradable.

  The "three-in-one" reform of production, supply and marketing, and credit is a "golden sign" for deepening Zhejiang's rural reforms.

Today, the province has taken social services as an entry point, integrated supply and marketing cooperatives, agricultural operations, rural finance, agricultural management and other system reforms, and established 1 provincial agricultural cooperatives, 11 municipal agricultural cooperatives, and 84 county-level agricultural cooperatives. The rural cooperative union organization system composed of 961 rural cooperative unions at the township level, 66,100 members have participated in the agricultural cooperative unions at all levels.

  According to Wang Tonglin, Director of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of Zhejiang Province, in order to open up the channel for the optimal allocation of rural resource elements, Zhejiang is now implementing a new era of rural integration reform actions, coordinating the promotion of rural land systems, collective property rights systems, financial systems, and "three-in-one" rural cooperative unions. The reform aims to promote the coordination of rural reforms in policy orientation, mutual promotion in the implementation process, and superposition of actual effects in the same direction.

  The vitality and vitality brought about by the "unchanged" original intention of the people and the reform effect of "changing" have made the road to prosperity in the rural areas of Zhejiang possible.

"Common" articles about getting rich first and helping later

  "Common prosperity" is difficult to "common".

Although it is located in the east, there are also villages in Zhejiang that have very different elements, making it difficult to get rich on their own.

How to write a "common" article well and walk out of the development path of getting rich first and helping get rich later is also the key direction of the province's focus.

  On the one hand, all parts of Zhejiang have made efforts within the prefectures and cities to continuously consolidate the foundation of common prosperity through households helping households, villages helping villages, enterprises helping rural areas, and unit pairing.

  Chunqiu Village in Jiande City was a village with weak collective economy three years ago.

Under the local "village-enterprise co-construction" model, it has a co-construction relationship with the enterprise Zhongce Rubber.

  With the help of enterprises, the village has built a large-scale logistics and transportation comprehensive service base, and obtained considerable income from the village collective operation. At the same time, three floors of the village committee office building were leased to relevant enterprises to develop a "village-level building economy". The co-construction of the village and enterprise has also enabled the villagers to turn from farmers into industrial workers. In recent years, more than 400 villagers from outside the village have returned to their hometowns for employment.

  In Chun'an County, Hangzhou, the "Daxiajiang Rural Revitalization Consortium" is a characteristic road explored by the local area for "shared prosperity".

  Xiajiang Village once relied on burning charcoal in earthen kilns and raising pigs to make ends meet, but it is difficult to change its poor face.

Later, under the guidance of the concept of "green water and green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains", it combined red tourism resources with the construction of new rural areas and gradually transformed into a "red tourism town". In 2020 alone, it will achieve tourism income of 46.26 million yuan.

  In 2018, Chun'an County Xiajiang Village was the core, based on geographical proximity, cultural similarity, and industrial complementarity, the "Daxiajiang Village Revitalization Consortium" consisting of 25 villages was formed, benefiting more than 20,000 people.

  Jiang Lijuan, secretary of the Party branch of Xiajiang Village, introduced that through the overall promotion of platform co-construction, resource sharing, industry co-prosperity, brand co-building, etc., now in "Big Xiajiang", every village has a way of wealth: core area 9 Relying on the red resources of Xiajiang Village, this village focuses on research camps and education and training; Xiafeng piece uses wasteland to develop red sorghum; Baima piece makes a big story around sweet potatoes and dried bamboo shoots...

  On the other hand, in order to accelerate the transition to "America, the United States and Communism", Zhejiang under the guidance of the "8-8 Strategy" is also working hard on regional coordination. Shanhai cooperation has become a way out of the inter-regional riches first to help the rich and then to promote the development of relatively underdeveloped regions. Unique experience.

  Those with ambitions do not take mountains and seas as far away.

It is reported that the Shanhai Cooperation Project is centered on project cooperation, with industrial gradient transfer and rational allocation of factors as the main line, through the rational transfer of industries from developed areas to underdeveloped areas, and the orderly flow of surplus labor from underdeveloped areas to developed areas, inspiring underdeveloped areas The vitality of the economy.

This has allowed many villages in the province to receive precise assistance and achieve rapid development.

  A few days ago, 20739 Xuanlian seedlings from Chemen Village, Wuyi County were planted in the "Wulian Sea Species" Demonstration Base in Haining Economic Development Zone, Haining City.

Shen Yaping, director of the Agricultural and Rural Affairs Office of the Haining Economic Development Zone (Haichang Sub-district) District (street), said that the "long journey" of Xuanlian in Wuyi was that Haining helped Wuyi to develop and sell Xuanlian products and promote the development and sales of Xuanlian products in Wuyi. One of the efforts to enter the Yangtze River Delta market.

  Jingning She Autonomous County in Lishui City, through the establishment of "Flying Cabinets" in the cooperation of mountains and seas, sold local ecological agricultural products of high mountains to Zhejiang Wenling, Shangyu, Ninghai, Haiyan and other places, driving tens of thousands of farmers in ethnic areas to increase their incomes and become rich. .

  Wealth first helps to get rich, the local "does its best", and the region "makes efforts in the same direction", giving strong support to the road to prosperity in the rural areas of Zhejiang.

Common prosperity is "on the road"

  The long-term success in promoting rural development has allowed Zhejiang to gradually establish its advantages on the road to common prosperity.

With the expectation of an "important window" and the task of constructing a demonstration zone for common prosperity, Zhejiang also has a mentality of "always on the road", and has begun to write about transforming its rural advantages into an overall victory.

  From the perspective of nowadays, an obvious phenomenon is that the province is investing more and more resources in rural development, while at the same time injecting more profound connotations into rural affluence.

  Wang Tonglin introduced the “two advances and two returns” campaign carried out in Zhejiang as an example. Zhejiang promoted the return of funds, science and technology, youth, and villagers to the countryside. In 2020, the province’s general public budget expenditure on agriculture, forestry and water was 76.484 billion yuan, an increase of 5.8%. The contribution rate of scientific and technological progress exceeded 65%; a total of 110,000 family farms, 43,000 specialized farmer cooperatives, and more than 7,000 agricultural creators were cultivated.

  The local level is also working hard in the same way.

In the past two years, in Kecheng District, Quzhou City, in order to adapt to the new agricultural development trend, inject more industrial vitality into the village, integrate the training funds of the whole district, and carry out the cultivation of talents for the village seeding industry throughout the chain, focusing on villagers, agricultural business owners, Groups including young entrepreneurs returning to their hometowns will carry out zero-based, zero-threshold, all-free "theory + practical" inclusive training.

At present, a total of 4,687 trainees have been trained, more than 100 "village broadcasters" have been incubated and cultivated, and the sales of special agricultural products have been 173 million yuan.

  Zhejiang is also carefully deploying beyond the economic and industrial levels. This month, it launched the medical and health "mountain and sea" upgrading project. 32 mountainous island county governments, 13 provincial and municipal level A hospitals and Zhejiang Health Commission signed a cooperation framework agreement.

During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the project will focus on supporting the improvement of the capacity of 32 county-level hospitals in mountainous islands and counties to solve the problem of medical treatment in remote areas, especially rural areas.

  Facing the "14th Five-Year Plan", Zhejiang has clarified the future path of the road to rural prosperity in the top-level design.

  The provincial government's work report stated that the "14th Five-Year Plan" will play the role of helping the rich first, carry out the basic modernization action for low-income groups, and take the lead in promoting common prosperity to make substantive progress.

Improve agricultural quality, efficiency and competitiveness.

Promote the comprehensive integration of new urbanization and rural revitalization, accelerate the realization of the same plan and the same network of urban and rural transportation, water supply, power grid, and gas, promote the equal exchange of urban and rural elements and the rational allocation of public resources, and promote the two-way flow and opening of urban and rural areas.

  Specifically in the area of ​​“agriculture, rural areas and farmers”, Zhejiang has begun to establish a target system, work system, policy system, and evaluation system that promotes mutual prosperity and promotes common prosperity. The implementation of low-income farmers simultaneously basically realizes modernization actions and “ten industry trillions”. Actions, consolidation and improvement of the collective economy, and three-year actions.

  In addition, in the context of digital reforms, Zhejiang’s agricultural and rural departments will also promote the implementation of new infrastructure for “agriculture, rural areas and farmers”, strengthen the design and application of Internet + smart agriculture, public services and other scenarios, and accelerate the formation of “one library holographic, one code full process, and one function. The digital “agriculture, rural areas, and farmers” of the “Platform” is a large-scale construction pattern, and the continuous deepening of the digital “agriculture, rural areas and farmers” empowers rural development.

  Regarding common prosperity, Yuan Jiajun, secretary of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee, stated publicly that Zhejiang should develop high-quality development and build a demonstration zone for common prosperity, and strive to create an "important window" with the latest achievements and hard-core responsibilities.

Under this goal, Zhejiang's rural areas, which have taken the lead on the road to common prosperity, have ushered in a broader space for development, gathered more expectations from the outside world, and are expected to add more confidence to Zhejiang.
