The villagers of Tongzi Town, Wulong, Chongqing, rely on raising chickens to get rid of poverty and become rich.

Douxiaosong, a farmer who graduated from Changzheng Village Primary School in Tongzi Town, Wulong County, has embarked on the road of getting rid of poverty by raising chickens. This year, he raised more than 10000 native chickens, with sales exceeding 500000 yuan and a net profit of more than 80, 000 yuan.

In the past, the Dou Xiaosong family relied on traditional farming and livestock farming, and their living standards hovered on the line of subsistence, so it was difficult for the family to get rich. In 2015, Douxiaosong through half a year of market research, combined with national policy, Douxiaosong found that the chicken industry is suitable for his own way, and he also has woodland to use.

At the beginning of 2016, he borrowed 30, 000 yuan to build a simple chicken coop in his woodland, bought back 1000 young chickens for unheated breeding, and began his entrepreneurial road. What if there is no technology? Douxiaosong bought back technical books on raising chickens, conducted self-study on the Internet through mobile phones, fumbled for experience, and single-mindedly drilled into the chicken farm, asking comrades at the veterinary station to teach themselves how to inject chickens to prevent epidemic diseases, and to judge the condition of chickens through self-study. In the end, Dou Xiaosong has accumulated a lot of experience in raising chickens through constant groping.

After the success of raising chickens, he also led two villagers, Dou Qingping and Luan Chunfeng, to raise chickens to get rich together. Dou Xiaosong said: "next year they are going to register a farming cooperative, breed their own chicken seedlings and mobilize more villagers to join their road to wealth."
