  This year's "Government Work Report" proposes to accelerate the development of rural industries, strengthen the county economy, and broaden the employment channels for farmers.

Do everything possible to increase the income of hundreds of millions of peasants.

  Today, many young people return to their hometowns to start their own businesses.

Those who return to their hometowns to start a business and find jobs bring technology and information back to the countryside, bring new ideas to farmers, and become the "leading goose" in helping farmers increase their incomes.

  How to make people who are willing to stay in the countryside and build their hometowns feel at ease, and make those who are willing to go to the countryside and return to the countryside more confident?

At the National Video Conference on Promoting the Entrepreneurship and Employment of Returned Workers on March 15th, relevant persons in charge of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the Ministry of Veterans Affairs, and the All-China Women's Federation responded to hot issues.

10.1 million entrepreneurs will return home in 2020

  "Thanks to the government for providing such good industrial services and fulfilling my desire to start a business in my hometown." In March last year, Yin Haijun, who has more than 20 years of experience in agricultural product logistics, returned to his hometown of Qinghu Village, Zhangshan Town, Jizhou District, Ji'an City, Jiangxi Province, and established An agricultural company to develop modern aquaculture.

In one year, he contracted and transferred more than 700 acres of land, and the annual output value of the enterprise reached 5.2 million yuan, which helped 279 poor households to get rid of poverty and become rich.

  Like Yin Haijun, there are nearly 40,000 people engaged in vegetable sales in the first-tier developed areas.

In order to attract them to return to their hometowns to start businesses, Jizhou District encourages returning entrepreneurs to develop new agricultural business organizations such as family farms, agricultural cooperatives, and agricultural enterprises through project support, financial subsidies, land transfer, and technical training.

After the local villagers transfer the land to the company, they not only get land rental income, but they can also work in the base and find employment at their doorstep.

  Liu Wei, deputy director of the Jiangxi Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, introduced at the video conference that in order to promote entrepreneurship and employment in the hometown, Jiangxi will give full play to the role of the agricultural and rural "strategic backyard" and vigorously develop labor-intensive industries such as double-season rice, pig breeding, and facility vegetables. Guide entrepreneurs to open up new channels for employment.

  2020 is an extraordinary year. Affected by the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the situation of entrepreneurship and employment in rural areas is severe.

All localities coordinate the common development of entrepreneurship and employment, and return to their hometowns to produce a brilliant "transcript" for entrepreneurship and employment.

  Liu Huanxin, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, introduced that in 2020, 10.1 million entrepreneurs and innovative people will return to their hometowns across the country, an increase of 1.6 million over the previous year and a year-on-year increase of 19%. This is the largest increase and the fastest growth in recent years. year.

The opening of online stores, cloud video, live direct sales, and contactless delivery have opened new windows for returning home to start a business.

  "In 2020, a return-home entrepreneurship and innovation project can absorb an average of 6.3 people in stable employment, 17.3 people in flexible employment, and income has increased. These'lead geese' help farmers make big cakes and distribute them well, using contractual and dividend-sharing methods. , Shareholding type of connection, leaving the value-added income of the industry to the farmers." Liu Huanxin pointed out.

Innovatively solve the "unacceptable" problem

  The wave of mass entrepreneurship and the opportunities for rural development have affected the passions and dreams of entrepreneurs who have returned to their hometowns. However, some returning young people have also encountered the problem of "unacceptable" in their entrepreneurship. The gap in the environment and the high threshold for entrepreneurship have become their cause. upset.

  "At present, there are still difficulties in policy recognition, project implementation, financing, and land security. It is necessary to fully implement the agricultural and rural priority development and employment priority policies, use your brains, broaden your thinking, and find The main starting point for quasi-promotion of returning to the hometown for entrepreneurship and employment is to solve the difficult problems in entrepreneurship and employment." Liu Huanxin said.

  After the victory of poverty alleviation, the village will usher in a comprehensive revitalization, the focus of "agriculture, rural areas and farmers" has undergone a historic shift, and the potential of returning to the countryside to start a business and employment is huge.

  "In the past, the original brand of agricultural products could not sell at good prices. The key is that the industrial chain is too short and the space for industrial value-added efficiency is not fully explored." Liu Huanxin analyzed that 32% of agricultural products in my country are not processed, and 33% of townships have no commodity markets. 53% of the villages do not have general stores, and 70% of the villages do not have restaurants.

Returning people can start their own businesses around the entire industrial chain of production, processing, circulation, sales and service.

  In addition, the rural product supply, ecological conservation, cultural heritage, leisure experience and other functions are insufficiently explored, and the level of rural industry integration is shallow.

Returning residents can use "Agriculture+" to create new industries and new formats, and change from selling products to selling scenery, selling services, and selling experience.

  Chang Zhengguo, a member of the Party Leadership Group and Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Veterans Affairs, pointed out that the countryside is a vast world that can do a lot and is an important "reservoir" for recruiting veterans for employment and entrepreneurship.

Returning to the hometown is an important channel for veterans to achieve employment, and more effective measures must be taken to promote it.

"Full chain" services are working hard

  In order to promote the development of entrepreneurs and employees returning to their hometowns, the "full chain" service is working hard from strong industry to education main body, from platform building to excellent service and policy implementation.

  Industry is the foundation of entrepreneurship and employment.

Liu Huanxin introduced that in order to promote the development of rural industries and provide more opportunities for entrepreneurship, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs will give full play to the central financial support to build a demonstration and leadership of agricultural industry integration projects such as advantageous characteristic industrial clusters, modern agricultural industrial parks, and strong agricultural industrial towns. The role is to grasp a batch of “one village, one product” demonstration villages with an output value of more than 100 million yuan, a strong agricultural industry town with an output value of more than 1 billion yuan, a modern agricultural industrial park with an output value of more than 10 billion yuan, and advantageous characteristic industries with an output value of more than 100 billion yuan. Cluster.

  "Through training, rural women must be refreshed, thinking, ambitious, and rich as soon as possible; encouraging and supporting female entrepreneurs, female college students, female migrant workers, retired female soldiers, etc., to return to the countryside to establish family farms and farmer cooperatives. And other new business entities, build service platforms for them, carry out project docking, technical exchanges, product demonstrations, financing services, etc., so that people who are willing to go to the countryside to return to the countryside are more confident to show their talents and show their skills in the vast world of the countryside." All-China Women’s Federation Du Rui, secretary of the Secretariat, pointed out.

  In order to provide excellent services, all localities will continue to carry out special activities of "Entering villages and households, and knowing the pulse of service", and promote the "one-network service" of government services, and support policies of "one-click inquiry" to provide one-stop service.

In order to educate the main body, this year the agricultural and rural departments will establish a team of rural entrepreneurship and innovation mentors, explore the "platform + mentor + maker" service model, and provide guidance on "One Belt One", "One Belt Multiple" and "Teachers Leading Apprentices".

  "In addition, we will actively implement financial subsidy policies, financial credit policies, and preferential tax and fee policies, and make good use of the protection and standardization of rural primary, secondary, and tertiary industries integrated development land, as well as agricultural electricity and gas, and tiered electricity price preferential policies. The employment of entrepreneurs in rural areas is inclined." Liu Huanxin said.
