A guide to getting rich in the countryside

"both the temperature and Rain Water are good this year, and I'm still a little good in these two crops." When I first met Tan Shunjiang, he was sowing the second batch of precocious corn this year. When it comes to farming, the rich expert, who usually doesn't talk much, opens the chatterbox.

Tan Shunjiang is the leader of three groups in Zhiziyuan Village, Shuangjia Town, Longmatan District. Since serving as the group leader in 2009, he has organized more than 20 left-behind elderly families in the village, set up planting and breeding cooperation, developed a variety of three-dimensional farming, and led the team members to get rich and increase their income.

Grow whatever the market lacks.

In his early years, Tan Shunjiang followed the tide of migrant workers from his hometown to Yunnan, Guangzhou and other places to work. After returning to his hometown in 2007, he began to develop agriculture and aquaculture. With his experience in traveling abroad, he aimed at the market demand. In just two years, Tan Shunjiang quickly became a famous grower in the village. "follow Captain Tan to grow vegetables, we can't lose money no matter how we sell them." Qian Zhengwen, a farmer in the same group, was full of praise for Tan Shunjiang.

"now many young people have gone out to work, and the old people left behind can't grow much land. it's a pity that a lot of land is so wasteland." Speaking of contracting wasteland, Tan Shunjiang said. In order to solve the problem of idle arable land in the village, he, who had just been elected team leader, made a decision that surprised his family-to contract more than 60 mu of wasteland to grow vegetables in the group.

Not only did he grow it himself, but Tan Shunjiang also led other farmers in the village to plant it. "before every time I plant, I will run to the vegetable market in the city to see which vegetables sell well and are expensive, and to see which vegetables have not been sold yet. When I see them back, I discuss planting with the people in the village, so that it is not easy for us to lose money." Tan Shunjiang told me about his "classics of growing vegetables". "here are towel gourd and rattan vegetables, and there are red gourd and eggplant over there. When these vegetables are expensive, we buy them in the city, and when they are cheap, we pick them up and feed them to chickens, ducks and pigs. If we grow them in this way, our income per mu will probably be about 350 yuan more than before. "

"at first, some people in our group didn't dare to farm in this way, so I took the lead in planting it myself. Later, when I saw that my vegetables sold well, he took the initiative to work with me the next year. I was a party member, so I didn't take the lead."

Stereoscopic aquaculture promotes income increase

While developing cooperative planting, Tan Shunjiang also developed team members to plant grapefruit, longan and other fruit trees, carry out chicken, duck, pig breeding, and achieve a three-dimensional pollution-free green agriculture model.

The land in Zhiziyuan Village is shallow and sandy, so it is not suitable for large-scale planting. Combined with the local actual situation, Tan Shunjiang remembered the three-dimensional agriculture he had seen in rural Guangdong before. With the help of the local agricultural technology extension service center, he set up three-dimensional agriculture with pig farming as the main body.

"most of the people at home are old people, and it is inconvenient to raise big pigs, so we mainly raise small pigs, so even if the market for big pigs is not good, our little pigs can't lose money." When it comes to raising pigs, the big pig farmers in this village are always sensible.

Tan Shunjiang's pig farm produces nearly 1,000 pigs every year. Led by him, other people in the village also began to raise pigs. In view of the large number of elderly people left behind in the village and the shortage of labor force, Tan Shunjiang mainly developed pig farming in the village. The piglets in their village are sold to all villages and towns in four counties and three districts.

While developing pig farming, Tan Shunjiang also arranged the sandy land and sloping land in the village that were not suitable for growing vegetables to plant grapefruit, longan and other fruit trees, raised chickens and ducks under the fruit forest, and developed three-dimensional breeding.

"Pig manure can be used to fertilize the fields, chickens and ducks can disinfect and fatten the fruit forest, and vegetables in the vegetable fields can be fed to pigs. This not only saves fertilizer money, feed money, and pesticide money, but also saves a lot of energy and time." Speaking of his three-dimensional agriculture, Tan Shunjiang is full of pride. "every year, many people drive to me to buy vegetables and pick fruits. For no reason, everyone knows that I don't have pesticides."

"Last year, I collected about 6,000 jin of grapefruit. Now the pomelo tree is old and the output is less than before. Last year, I began to replant longan and litchi. On the whole, I can make a lot of money in an acre of fruit. Plus the vegetables, chickens, ducks and pigs sold in a year, on average, each household can earn 5,000 or 6,000 yuan more than before. Next, I plan to work with the team members to raise layers. If you get more, you will earn more. The income of farmers in our group will be a little more. "

Contribute with a demonstration

"We should not only contribute to society, but also fulfill our responsibilities to society." As a member of the Communist Party, Tan Shunjiang gave full play to the vanguard and exemplary role of a party member. While leading the group members to get rich together, he also enthusiastically helped the surrounding villagers, the pig manure and biogas water used for fertilising the land were provided to the villagers free of charge, and actively contacted the local agricultural technology extension service center to carry out quarantine and epidemic prevention for the pigs raised by the villagers. And free to provide technical guidance and services for Qian Zhengwen and other farmers, who in the village whose chickens, ducks, pigs are sick, he is free to provide treatment and medicine.

When Tan Shunjiang's name was mentioned, not only the people in the village were full of praise, but also the residents of the town gave a thumbs-up.

At the end of 2012, he quietly sent two pigs and 1000 yuan in cash to the nursing home until the nursing home reported the matter to the town government and wanted to contact him through the government to thank him.

"they are all from the villagers in the countryside, and the Spring Festival is coming soon. I want to help these old people as much as I can. I can't sing and dance, so I can only express my feelings in this way. After all, there are no old people in any family! " Talking about giving pigs to nursing homes, Tan Shunjiang said. "since I am a party member, it is right for me to contribute to everyone. These are all trivial matters."

The vegetables grown by Li old man in the village couldn't sell any more. He actively contacted the vegetable shop in downtown Luzhou for sales. Aunt Zhang's house leaked in the rain. He took the initiative to help deal with it. Uncle Liu's pig stopped eating. He went to check the situation as soon as possible.

Tan Shunjiang made extraordinary contributions to his ordinary post, persisted in serving the masses, always strictly required himself according to the standards of an outstanding Communist Party member, respected the masses, worked in a down-to-earth manner in practical work, sought truth from facts, and worked diligently and conscientiously. While interpreting the meaning of the word "Communist Party member" through his own practical actions, it also won the unanimous recognition of the villagers. Some old people in the village even made up a limerick to praise Tan Shunjiang: "if you are in trouble, ask Party member Tan to get rich and help. Everyone likes it."
