The "mine boss" leads the villagers to raise pigs to become rich.

"in early spring, it is all the more necessary to do a good job in the prevention of live pig diseases." On the morning of February 2, more than 50 villagers from Jianshan Village, Helukou Town, Jianghua Yao Autonomous County huddled in the villagers' activity room to listen to Chen Zigui, a big pig farmer in the village, give a lecture on pig disease prevention. One villager said: "he tells his own experience, which is vivid, easy to understand and well targeted."

In the mouth of the villagers, Chen Zigui also called "the mine boss". Many years ago, Chen Zigui partnered with others to open a mine. Later, he thought that pork was eaten every day, the market was vast, and the breeding cycle was not long, so he wanted to switch to pig farming. Unexpectedly, many people poured cold water on him: it is hard to raise pigs and there is a great risk of disease and epidemic prevention. Can you do it as a "mine boss"? Chen Zigui's stubbornness came up: everything depends on man-made, can not raise can not learn?

In 2007, Chen Zigui leased more than 1000 square meters of land to build a pigsty, bought back 56 piglets and began to create a new business. He feeds pigs and cleans up pig manure every day, and is busy until more than 11:00 in the evening.

Soon, however, Chen Zigui paid an "expensive tuition fee". In the spring of 2008, his pigs got sick suddenly. He feeds the pigs with traditional Chinese medicine and injections every day, and moves the bed to live next to the pigsty. The condition of live pigs was brought under control, but more than 20 pigs still died.

With this lesson, Chen Zigui went around to participate in scientific pig breeding training courses and took the initiative to learn from other pig farmers.

Three years ago, Guangdong Wen's aquaculture group entered Jianghua, and many people took a wait-and-see attitude. Chen Zigui decisively joined Wen's breeding Group in the way of "company + farmers". The company provided piglets, technology, and recycled finished pigs. he produced more than 15000 pigs a year. Chen Zigui also built a 120m3 biogas digester and planted more than 200mu of navel oranges and rose oranges with biogas slurry, with an annual income of more than 1 million yuan.

Chen Zigui, who became rich, volunteered to help the villagers get rich. The year before last, Zhang Jide, a poor household, could not find a way to get rid of poverty and become rich. Chen Zigui came to his door, had a knee-jerk conversation with him, suggested that he raise pigs, and gave him a guarantee to help him solve his financial problem with a loan. Now, Zhang Jide has produced 2500 pigs a year and is on the road to becoming rich.

At the beginning of last year, villager Li Bin went to Chen Zigui with only 8000 yuan in savings and said he wanted to raise pigs. After hearing this, Chen Zigui lent him the money to build a pigsty and provided him with piglets and so on. Last year, Li Bin produced 1600 pigs, with a net income of nearly 200000 yuan.

Under the leadership of Chen Zigui, 48 households in Jianshan Village developed pig farming, all of which built biogas digesters. The village produces 50,000 live pigs a year. And adopt the "marsh + fruit" model, the whole village planted rose mandarin and other more than 8000 mu, with an average annual income of more than 10, 000 yuan per mu.
