The combination of thinning and blocking is necessary to prohibit the burning of straw.

Whenever the farming season, walking in the rural fields, everywhere can be seen forbidden straw burning slogans and wearing the "no burning" red armband of rural cadres patrolling in the fields. In the autumn of this year, the scene remains the same. People who have no working experience in rural areas will certainly find it difficult to understand the difficulties of township cadres in the work of banning straw burning. (Guangming Network, October 8)

Straw burning and banning burning is no longer a new topic. Many years ago, straw burning was banned in many places. As the son of a peasant family, the author also has deep feelings about the prohibition of straw burning. In the past, straw was used as a fuel for farmers to cook. Now, many families use electricity and gas, and a large number of straw not only have nowhere to be piled up, but also put in the front and back of the house to affect their environmental hygiene, and it is laborious, time-consuming and costly to move. In the view of the peasants, a fire burns as fertilizer, saving time and effort.

The random burning of straw will add to the air pollution, and will cause fire and other safety risks. However, with the repeated burning of straw, the villagers just want to make more fertilizer conveniently and quickly, which can save some money and time, and their wishes can not be met. On the one hand, the masses save time, time, and effort; on the other hand, the pressure of the ban on burning and the painstaking persuasion of cadres have put the masses and cadres in a state of "confrontation."

First of all, the peasants said that they did not know that the "burning ban" did not mean that our cadres did not publicize it well. At present, various localities have gradually entered the harvest season, and the prohibition of straw burning has become an important work for grass-roots cadres. Many local governments have issued local laws and regulations, and even come up with the "killer mace" of "one vote veto" to manage this work. The slogan "do not light a fire, do not smoke" often rings in the ear, "strengthen leadership, strictly guard against death, strictly ban burning" also often appears in the newspaper, but with little effect. In addition, our township cadres work at the grass-roots level, not only the work of banning straw burning, but also the government does not have enough channels to ensure the rational use of these straws, straw burning has become an inevitable thing, and the air pollution has not been alleviated. A lot of manpower, material and financial resources invested in straw burning have gone down the drain.

Secondly, the prohibition of straw burning emphasized year after year, publicity year after year, farmers are not unaware of straw burning polluting the air environment, harmful to human health, the reason is also helpless. In some places, there are subsidies for the prohibition of straw burning and fines for straw burning. However, in the face of subsidies and penalties, farmers still choose to burn straw, the reason is very simple, on the one hand, the subsidy standard is too low, which is different from the cost of straw harvesting and transportation. On the other hand, crop cultivation is seasonal, and if it is not burned at the right time, it will delay the farming season, and the harvest of the next season will be greatly reduced. Even if a fine of dozens of yuan does not help, burning straw is still the first choice for farmers.

In addition, the prohibition of straw burning can not be banned, but also need to "dredging and blocking combination". Instead of forbidding farmers to burn straw, it is better to find a good place for straw and turn waste into treasure. In order to increase the intensity of scientific and technological innovation, local governments should not only make efforts and increase investment in the prohibition of straw burning, but also strengthen source control, innovate in the research and development of crop types, and innovate in the disposal of crop straws. innovate in the use of crops, multi-channel, all-round strengthen the management of the prohibition of crop straw burning in rural areas.

To realize, maintain and develop the interests of farmers is not only the basis of the work of banning straw burning, but also the important premise of doing a good job in rural areas. Local governments should really start from the needs of farmers, so that farmers get real benefits, in order to really get the support of farmers. If "only blocking but not sparse" or "only sparse but not blocking", yelling publicity and banning burning year after year, without the determination and sincerity to really solve the problem, the sky will still be "smoky" every May.
