Chapter 121 General Battle
The Huimin Planting Professional Cooperative is located in Youlian Village, which is also within the scope of the saline-alkali land low-yield field transformation project area.
And due to Tianhe's intervention, the renovation process of Youlian Village has been advanced.
When Guo Yang and others arrived at Youlian Village, they were shocked by the sight before them.
I saw people in the farmland clearing away the accumulated soil, people lining the canals with concrete, people planting trees on both sides of the farm roads, and countless mechanical facilities.
This was the first time Qu Yang saw such a scene, and he murmured: "How many people are there?"
Liu Jun, deputy secretary of Xinmin Town, and Yang Xiaobing, representative of the Huimin Planting Cooperative, came over hand in hand. .
Liu Jun proudly introduced: "Now the county is holding a farmland competition. The number of laborers at Sunrise in Youlian Village alone has reached 3,000."
"There are so many people in one village. People? How is this organized? "
Xiang Tianshan quickly asked, Alfalfa also has experience in saline-alkali land improvement, and a lot of people were mobilized, but that was 200,000 acres!
Moreover, Alfalfa's wages are never in arrears, and labor costs are high!
Does the town have the financial resources?
Liu Jun said: "Youlian Village has not had any supporting facilities for decades. The canals are not smooth, the fields are messy, and there is irrigation but no drainage, causing serious damage.
This year, the country has started to launch medium- and low-yield fields. In order to mobilize the enthusiasm of the masses, the town held a general meeting and mobilized the people to mobilize the town's five-year farmland construction plan and annual construction plan.
Let everyone know which year and how much will be carried out in their own village, and at the same time, the 6 villages in the northern part of the town and the 9 villages in the southern part will be divided into two combat units.
Implement the financing and investment methods of borrowing money to repay money, borrowing work to repay work, borrowing things to return things, sharding cross-regional implementation and sharding coordination, centralized use, and cycle balance.
When one village is engaged in development, people from other villages in the film will join forces. The labor and money lent now will be repaid by other villages when the village is engaged in development in the future, so as to avoid the difficulty of raising funds for farmers in one village. situation. ”
After hearing this, Guo Yang had to express his admiration.
He has never doubted the organizational capabilities of the domestic grassroots, but experiencing it personally is a different feeling.
"The Battle of the Farmland is really an image. It makes people think of Wuyuan Swearing and the Battle of Wuyuan."
In addition to its long history and complicated ethnic relations, Wuyuan's Swearing and the Battle of Wuyuan are the modern symbols of Wuyuan. A major event in history that caused a sensation in society.
“Incomparable to our ancestors, we here used to benefit from the irrigation of the Yellow River water, but were ‘trapped’ by the Loop.
With the strong north wind every year, every household has enough water. Fill the grain with wine, soak a few jars of sauerkraut, kill a pig and a few sheep, and then heat the kang head, eat, drink, sleep, and have a wonderful winter, and the next March and Fourth Yue Zai operates crops
In the past, when developing farmland, we were afraid of trouble, labor, investment, and land occupation. Now, every village competes with each other for projects and investment, and they all want the project to be within their own village.
Since the farmland battle, not a single household in the 6 villages within the Youlian Village development area has not worked or participated in the battle. ”
Walking in the fields, you can hear the conversations of farmers from time to time.
At the main canal in the village, Guo Yang saw people who were testing the water through the new supporting canal system. Villager.
“Originally, this diversion canal had 22 turns in 4 kilometers. Now, through reconstruction, the water flow speed has been greatly accelerated, and the annual dredging cost has been saved at least 50,000 yuan.
Through the matching and lining of the canal system, the project area can save 75,000 yuan in water costs annually, and the per capita water cost savings is 63.5 yuan.
At the same time, 1,200 acres of land can be added through development, and the per capita increase is 1.5 acres. Calculated at 800 yuan per mu, the per capita income will increase by 1,200 yuan.
With the irrigation and drainage canal system, more than 6,000 acres of low- and medium-yield fields have been turned into high-yield fertile fields, increasing income by at least 100-200 yuan per mu. "
Hearing that Secretary Liu calculated the financial accounts, Guo Yang also laughed.
"Secretary Liu, you only increased revenue by one or two hundred yuan, you are slapping Jiahe in the face. ! "
"The government has invested so much manpower and material resources in farmland transformation, and Jiahe can't say enough. It is confident that the income will increase by 500 yuan per mu. ”
Secretary Liu was surprised, "Really?"
Guo Yang said: "By adjusting the structure of the planting industry, introducing Tianyu No. 1 and Tianmai No. 1, implementing order planting, and selling directly to Jiahe Flour Mill, it is completely It can achieve high quality and good price for wheat.”
“But there has been no movement in Jiahe’s flour processing factory?”
“Haha, it turns out that Secretary Liu is waiting for me here.”
Guo Yang laughed, "Don't worry, Jiahe's wheat products processing plant will definitely be built."
Yang Xiaobing, a representative of the Huinong Planting Professional Cooperative, also had doubts on his face. The task of building a wheat demonstration base was directly assigned by the county Agriculture Bureau and the town.
The cooperative, which had been in trouble for the first two years, had no other options. But Yang Xiaobing still said unwillingly: "The income from wheat is not high, and the people are more willing to plant sunflowers."
Guo Yang was surprised for a moment, but he also understood that this was the reality. .
Spring wheat, summer corn, and sunflower are the main grain and oil crops in the Hetao area.
In the mid-1990s, wheat was the main crop grown in Wuyuan County, accounting for 50%.
However, as the harm of saline-alkali land worsens and the area of saline-alkali cultivated land increases, the proportion of wheat planting quickly drops to about 20%.
At the same time, the proportion of corn and sunflower planting has increased steadily.
Sunflowers, in particular, are more adaptable to saline-alkali environments. The price of sunflower seeds continues to be popular, and they are sought after by farmers. The sunflower planting area has reached nearly 700,000 acres.
"Mr. Yang, your cooperative also planted sunflowers last year, right? How was the benefit?"
"Last year, during the rainy season, the water was not drained out, and more than half of the sunflowers were drowned."
Good guy, Guo Yang thought last year's benefits would be great, but he didn't expect it to be so miserable.
Secretary Liu also said: "It used to be like this. In the spring, the ground was so wet that no one could walk in, and during the autumn harvest, there were no roads, so the crops had to be carried out."
Guo Yang was considered a good person. I understand why farmers are so motivated!
It’s all for personal interests.
Guo Yang asked again: "Where was the year before last?"
Yang Xiaobing, a farmer, moved his lips, and coupled with his tanned face, the scene was quite embarrassing.
Secretary Liu sighed,
“In July and August of the previous year, a large area of soil-borne diseases broke out in the cooperative. Many plots of land lost production, and many failed to harvest.
Because of successive years of recession, the original chairman of the cooperative and many farmers have quit, and the cooperative was once facing dissolution.
Now I'm counting on Jiahe to help. "
Xiang Tianshan, who had been watching the transformation of the land, also came over when he heard the words,
"I think I have been growing sunflowers before. ”
“Yes. ”
“It’s no wonder that large-scale sowing of sunflowers is not conducive to farmland crop rotation. Sunflowers also consume heavy soil resources and affect regional farmland soil fertility. ”
The Huinong Cooperative is not big, and Yang Xiaobing is just an ordinary farmer representative. He is a good farmer, but his knowledge is limited, and sometimes he is blinded by the benefits.
This is also a common problem among many cooperatives at this time.
Yang Xiaobing tried to argue: "The price of sunflower seeds has been high in recent years, and you can make money!"
"Have you planted it yet?"
"Now the soil Continuous cropping obstacles have arisen, and rotation of grass crops such as wheat and corn has strong ecological benefits in terms of soil fertility and reducing the number of sclerotia in the field.
Of course, it would be even more perfect if Alfalfa No. 1 could be rotated. ”
Guo Yang was also happy to see Lao Xiang’s talkative appearance.
But he also remembered that the increase in sunflower seeds in recent years was indeed a bit fierce.
What happened in the previous life When I was planting, I met a lot of people and often heard people brag about it.
Many of them became rich after joining the WTO, with the highest net income per acre reaching over a thousand yuan! br>
Guo Yang looked at Yang Xiaobing, who was silent, and said: "Don't worry, Tianmai No. 1's earnings are not bad either.
The agricultural machinery company under Jiahe will soon launch new products, with national agricultural machinery subsidies and Jiahe With the financial policy, cooperatives can use loans to introduce agricultural machinery.
The efficiency can be improved.”
Guo Yang then added, “The cooperatives don’t even have to pay in the early stage. One cent!”
Yang Xiaobing was obviously moved.
The terrain of Wuyuan is flat, and now it has undergone land consolidation.
If you have a few farm machines, you will be like a duck in water.
