The revelation after the catastrophe how to improve the anti-disaster ability of agriculture?

The fertile land was flooded, the livestock and poultry farms were washed, and the fish ponds became a vast ocean. The heavy rainfall since entering the plum has brought huge losses to Hubei Province, a major agricultural province. In the face of major natural disasters, how to improve the ability of agricultural disaster prevention and resistance? The reporter rushed to the front line for investigation.

From June 19 to July 20, the rainfall in Cenhe Town, Shashi District, Jingzhou City reached 410mm, resulting in the failure of 4000 mu of medium rice and 6000 mu of vegetables, resulting in a direct economic loss of 16.41 million yuan. In the face of unexpected disasters, the Tong Hechun vegetable Cooperative in Cenhe Town has made a useful exploration in advance. Zhou Yonghong, chairman of the Tong Hechun vegetable Cooperative, said that a certain amount of risk money is extracted from the money earned, and the money earned is less returned, which has been written into the cooperative's articles of association.

Villagers buy shares with land and stock funds, and cooperatives set aside 40% of their profits each year as risk funds. In the three years since the establishment of the cooperative, although the accumulated risk fund is only more than 500,000 yuan, the beneficial exploration of this way of fighting disasters has still given Zhou Yonghong hope in the midst of the catastrophe.

Technology comes first in disaster relief. Hu Huabo, director of the Agricultural Technology extension Center in Shashi District, Jingzhou City, said that after the disaster, agricultural technology departments should first take the initiative to go deep into the fields to guide farmers to return to production scientifically. He said: after the catastrophe, the key is the node of time, and the agricultural sector should take the initiative to go to the front, and village cadres, including farmers themselves and agricultural departments, will guide disaster relief in different fields and different disaster situations.

The town of Cenhe faces the Yangtze River in front and the long Lake at the back. Due to the low-lying terrain, poor drainage, lack of water storage function of the crossing channel, so the disaster-bearing capacity is weak, one day can not be flooded, three days can not be dry. Hu Huabo said: to improve the ability of agriculture to resist disasters, plans should be made in advance for the construction of irrigation and water conservancy infrastructure. He said: at ordinary times, government departments should make plans in advance for ditches and electric discharge stations, and the new operators of family farms and professional cooperatives should also improve their own infrastructure.

Wang Zhongchun, mayor of Cenhe Town, said that in the year of the catastrophe, in addition to relying on government subsidies, farmers should enhance their awareness of risk and insurance, actively take out policy-based agricultural insurance, and reduce business risks. For the new type of agricultural operators, the rapid development and growth of themselves is the most fundamental solution to disaster resistance and prevention. Wang Zhongchun said: the government has certain special funds to provide certain support according to the situation affected by the disaster; rice is insured, insurance companies can settle part of the claims, and cooperatives still need to become bigger and stronger, bigger and stronger, and have a certain degree of economic strength. the ability to resist risks is strong.
