Let farmers get the greatest benefits in the reform and development, is the starting point and foothold of the "three rural" work, agricultural cadres need to squat down, dive in, to the rural front line to understand and master the "three rural" facts. "The situation at the base level is complicated. You can't sit in the office and 'pat your head' when making policies and decisions. Only through in-depth investigation can you have a say." Chen Ping, head of the Liaoning investigation team and deputy director of the Department of Market and Economic Information of the Ministry of Agriculture, said.

Zhejiang investigation team visited "Taobao Village" and personally felt the gratifying trend of rapid development of agricultural products e-commerce. At the same time, it also felt that under the appearance of rapid development, rural e-commerce still faced development bottlenecks such as lack of professional talents, incomplete industrial supporting facilities, serious homogenization phenomenon, and vicious and disorderly competition.

Through visiting the breeding bases of the two leading enterprises and the farms (households) cooperating with them, Henan investigation team found that the two enterprises had made many beneficial explorations in large-scale standardized breeding, integrated management and standardized management, which obviously promoted the development of agricultural industry and the increase of farmers 'income, but there were also problems such as insufficient deep processing capacity of meat products, weak discourse power of farmers, backward harmless treatment mode of dead livestock and poultry, etc.

It is extremely important to do a good job in the work of "agriculture, rural areas and farmers", to know the mentality of farmers and to master the facts of rural areas, which is directly related to the formulation and promulgation of policies. Wang Zhonglin, director of the Agricultural Committee of Heilongjiang Province, said: "The cadre style of our Ministry of Agriculture is really solid. In just one month, the situation is really accurate and thorough."

Propaganda policy, listening to the voice of the people, promoting the implementation of work

During the investigation and visit, the members of the investigation team always try their best to walk into the farmers 'homes in a language that the farmers are willing to listen to and understand and in a way that they like to hear, introduce the central government's policies of strengthening agriculture, benefiting agriculture and enriching farmers in detail to the farmers face to face, answer the problems and doubts in production and life for the farmers in detail, strive to be good propagandists and interpreters, and promote the implementation of policies to the grass-roots level and realize them to the farmers.

Lei Yingguo, director-general of Jiahe Planting Cooperative in Xiucheng City, Fengcheng City, Jiangxi Province, is a well-known grain grower. When he saw the investigation team, he said excitedly that in recent years, the state has given a lot of policy support to large grain growers, which has played a great role in promoting the development of cooperatives, but he is still troubled by the difficulty of storing agricultural machinery. When the comrades of the investigation team told him that last year the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Land and Resources jointly issued a notice to support the healthy development of facility agriculture, giving preferential policies to the land for facilities needed for large-scale grain production, and this problem could be solved soon, he quickly wrote down the name of the document and said that he would study it carefully and use this policy to win support for facility land.

Feng Kun of Jinsha County, Guizhou Province, started running a family farm in 2010 and has been developing very well. However, he suffered drought the year before last because there was no insurance and no collateral to borrow money, so he was in trouble for a while. She told the investigation team: "The investment in fixed assets of my farm has exceeded 5 million yuan. I only need to borrow 1 million yuan to tide over the difficulties. However, the bank has determined that my fixed assets investment cannot be mortgaged. If I go to a guarantee company, the interest rate will be high and I cannot afford it." The words were filled with helplessness. The investigation team immediately told her that this year the central government took out more than 20 billion yuan from agricultural subsidies to focus on supporting the establishment of an agricultural credit guarantee system, which gave her a "reassurance pill."

Such stories happen at any time in one investigation point, so that farmers are moved by them and grass-roots cadres praise them.

She said: "Last year, the state policy was good, and our harvest was good. This year, we all want to hear about the changes in the state policy and raise our own problems." Speaking of the investigation experience, He Caiwen, head of Jiangxi Investigation Group and Deputy Director of the Department of Plant Production Management of the Ministry of Agriculture, said with deep feelings: "The formulation of policies by all parties must be grounded, must be able to be implemented, and must be able to speak loudly in order to truly benefit farmers."
