Develop under-forest farming and successfully shake off poverty and become rich

Li Chunqiong shows off her ecological products

Beset with difficulties

It is difficult to keep people on the high mountain road.

Xujia Village is one of the 36 poor villages in Tianquan County. Xujia Village Group 8 is the only group in the village that does not have access to roads. It is difficult to travel, to drink water, to get rich. The mountains are high and the road is long, the living conditions are very poor, and the masses are beset with difficulties in getting rich.

From Xujiacun group 5 to group 8, although it is only more than 2 kilometers away, it takes an hour to walk. Before there is no access road in Xujia Village, eight groups of villagers of the Xu family catch up with the nearest Shiyangchang town, and it takes a day to get back and forth.

Living in 8 groups of Xujia Village, all the villagers' means of production and necessities of life are carried on horses, and there is no free time on the backs of the villagers who go in and out of Xujia Village.

The village has a tradition of planting ginger for many years, but the labor cost of planting in Xujia Village 8 groups far exceeds the income.

Under realistic conditions, many villagers have embarked on the road of survival as migrant workers.

The families of the villagers in 8 groups moved out, the women of marriage age married far away, the adult men could not get back their wives, and a large number of villagers in 8 groups fled. "at present, there are only more than 20 permanent residents, most of whom are children and the elderly." Xue Qijun, secretary of the party branch of Xujiacun, said that most of the permanent residents are still poor.

Li Chunqiong had the idea of going out, but her husband had been ill for many years, but the old and young of the family were left unattended. Watching a large number of villagers outflow, Li Chunqiong chose to stay in the local development of the forest aquaculture, take a road of their own.

From group 5 to group 8, woodland and wasteland were connected along the way. "I raise eco-chickens, eco-geese, feed eco-pigs, grow green organic vegetables, and collect dung locally to engage in circular agriculture." Li Chunqiong said that the eight groups of good ecological environment in Xujia Village have created an advantage for her to cultivate under the forest.

Get rid of poverty

The road leads to a well-off society.

Starting from dozens, Li Chunqiong slowly groped for breeding experience. Although she was bent on getting rich, she was never able to get rid of poverty.

Last year, the poverty alleviation campaign was carried out in Xujia Village in an all-round way. tap water was connected to the whole village before the Spring Festival, and construction of eight groups of more than 2 kilometers of roads began on February 29. "wait a few months, the eight groups will be opened to cement roads, and later production and life will be more convenient." Luo Mingfang, first secretary of Xujia Village, said that the poverty alleviation work of Xujia Village is in full swing, and the infrastructure and industrial development of the whole village will be upgraded in an all-round way.

Since last year, with the help of Luo Mingfang and village group cadres, Li Chunqiong's breeding scale began to expand. "at present, there are more than 600 geese, 300 goslings and more than 800 chickens, laying nearly 100 goose eggs and hundreds of eggs every day, and we will have to grow vegetables in the future." Li Chunqiong said that in one year, her breeding scale has expanded several times.

Standing in Li Chunqiong's farm, a newly built Mao road has been built into eight groups of sporadic villages. Li Chunqiong plans to raise some funds to coordinate the land with the villagers and connect the road to their own doorstep, so as to create better conditions for the development of farming under the forest.

Eight groups of villagers, Gao Qiang, are the poorest poor households in the village. after getting rid of poverty, Li Chunqiong and Gao Qiang formed a pair. I heard that Gao Qiang wanted to develop the aquaculture industry. Li Chunqiong and his wife took the initiative to teach breeding techniques. Now Gao Qiang has fed nearly a thousand chickens, ducks and geese.

"the supply of ecological products falls short of demand, and it is not a problem to take the road of farming under the forest to achieve wealth for the whole group." Li Chunqiong said that one person is rich is not rich, the whole group of villagers are rich, living and working in peace and contentment is not empty talk.
