Physically disabled, determined and brave to return to their hometown in a dream to start a business and become rich

"it is not easy for us disabled people to start a business, and without the help of the county party committee and county government, I would not be where I am today." On December 2, when the reporter interviewed the ecological cattle farmers' professional cooperative in Longlou Village, Baiwei Town, Meng Qin Ping, the manager of the cooperative, said.

On the eve of the International Day of disabled Persons, the author came to Longlou Village, Baiwei Town, with the County disabled Persons' Federation, and learned on the spot that under the guidance of the county party committee and county government, poor families and disabled people joined cooperatives to develop characteristic farming and breeding industries. self-reliance, employment and entrepreneurship.

Wage earners are poor because of disability

Meng Qinping grew up in a poor family. After graduating from technical secondary school, he went to work as a mold designer in a factory in Dongguan, Guangdong. With his excellent skills and hard-working spirit, he soon became the backbone of the design in the factory. Soon after, he married and had children again, which can be described as a bumper harvest of career and love, and a happy life.

However, there are unexpected events in the sky. In an operation at the end of 2013, Meng Qinping accidentally cut off more than half of his hand by the machine. The black-hearted boss refused to be responsible, and the huge cost of treatment made the already poor families even worse.

In February 2014, Meng Qin Ping, who recovered from injury, fought a long tug-of-war with his boss on the issue of industrial injury compensation. in order to win the case, he studied the law assiduously, safeguarded his rights and interests, and got the corresponding compensation. In the process of safeguarding his rights, he joined the local volunteer organization and became a "rights volunteer" to help migrant workers protect their rights.

After the palm was disabled, Meng Qinping tried many industries, but all failed. The burden of supporting the family is all on his wife, and life is becoming more and more difficult. "it's not a way to go on like this. Now accurate poverty alleviation is being implemented throughout the region, and there are such good poverty alleviation policies in your hometown, so why don't you go home and start a business." Meng Qin Ping and his wife discussed.

Join the cooperative and find a new way

As a new round of national poverty alleviation and development key counties and concentrated areas, our county attaches great importance to poverty alleviation work, and has carried out accurate policies after accurately identifying poor households. In 2015, the county actively integrated poverty alleviation funds of more than 50 million yuan (including 30 million yuan of industrial poverty alleviation funds), arranged annual loans of not less than 50 million yuan with county credit cooperatives to support poverty alleviation work, and the county finance arranged 6 million yuan to give two-year discount interest to each poor household. 5 million yuan is arranged to "insure" poor households (agricultural insurance), and corresponding insurance compensation is given to insured poor households. In addition, for those who promote industries and set up cooperatives, poor households will be given support of 5000 yuan per household, while non-poor households will be given support of 3000 yuan per household, and emphasis will be placed on helping poor families and disabled people to join cooperatives and develop special farming industries so that poor families and people with disabilities can have a dignified income.

Inspired by his hometown, Meng Qinping returned to his hometown in April 2015 to find ways to start a business. When we learned that Zhuangzhuang promoted the industry and set up a professional cooperative for ecological cattle farmers, the model of "company + base + cooperative + peasant household" was implemented throughout the county, attracting poor families and the disabled to join the cooperative. at present, there are 144 cattle breeding scale. With entrepreneurial ideas, Meng Qin Ping firmly joined the cooperative of Benzhuang and developed the characteristic aquaculture industry.

Using the start-up funds and special loans supported by the county party committee, the county government and the county disabled Persons' Federation, Meng Qinping bought two cows, joined the cooperative, and volunteered to be the manager of the cooperative.

Meng Qin Ping not only carefully fed his two cattle, but also took the initiative to help the villagers manage their cattle in the cooperative and do a good job in the hygiene of the farm. In order to solve the small problems of cattle suffering from rhinitis due to nose piercing, Meng Qinping took the initiative to learn epidemic prevention knowledge from old farmers and local veterinarians. with the joint efforts of Meng Qin Ping and the villagers, the cattle in the bullpen became stronger and stronger.

At the same time, Meng Qin Ping and other administrators also traveled for the cattle source of the cooperative, successively inspected Guiping, Laibin and other places, and introduced improved breeds of calves for the cooperative. "cattle in the south are too expensive. Next year we will go to Shandong to introduce calves from there and strive to raise more than five cows per household." When it comes to work, Meng Qin Ping's train of thought is very clear. "We lack skills and spirit. Next, we will send two people to train and learn about breeding and epidemic prevention. Through the county special support loans and the natural reproduction of cattle, the cooperative will grow to a breeding scale of 300 cattle next year. " Meng Qin Ping said confidently.

In addition, Meng Qin Ping also took the initiative to develop the "secondary industry". Under the guidance of relevant departments, he planned to use cow dung to raise earthworms and develop ecological chicken farming.

"with the care of county leaders, the support of poverty alleviation policies and the backing of co-operatives, our life will be better and better." Meng Qinping is full of longing for the future.
