Yuan Xueping, Guang 'an City, Sichuan Province: "Pig Shepherd" Leading Villagers to Become Rich

(agricultural Wealth Network) when you approach Lu Town, Huaying City, which is surrounded by green hills and green water, the first thing that catches your eye is the houses built with red bricks and blue tiles on Green City Avenue, and the owner of the house is Yuan Xueping, a well-known pig farmer in Huaying Mountain area.

To start a business, persistence is victory.

Yuan Xueping, a 42-year-old owner of Hongyuan Pig breeding Farm in Guang'an City, is a member of the second CPPCC National Committee of Guang'an City and a member of the sixth CPPCC Huaying City. He is a young man from the countryside. Because his family is poor and his parents are sick, he left school at the age of 17 and went out to work to earn money to support his family. Under the guidance of the national policy of enriching the people and the care and support of governments at all levels, he returned to his hometown to start a business. in 1980, he used the 400 yuan saved by working and borrowed 1500 yuan from relatives and friends to run a simple handmade noodle mill. with his hard work and diligence, he not only paid off the loan seven years later, but also accumulated 50, 000 yuan in cash. In 1996, through a careful analysis of the market situation, Yuan Xueping decisively invested all the 50,000 yuan he had accumulated into the expansion of the flour mill. He rented other people's idle factories and set up a relatively advanced local flour processing factory-- Star flour Mill. In 2001, he became the largest private flour processing enterprise in Huaying City.

Yuan Xueping is a shrewd peasant entrepreneur. He began to implement a large-scale industrial transfer in 2002. Under the advocacy and encouragement of the state and governments at all levels, he invested 2 million yuan to lease nearly 20, 000 square meters of the former Hongguang factory in Huaying city, and built a breeding farm and fattening pig breeding pen after transformation. And purchased 8 high-quality breeding boars from Chongqing, Rongchang, Mianyang and Jianyang, 500 high-quality breeding sows and 1200 piglets such as LY, YL, Landrace and York, and started breeding and fattening pig breeding on a large scale. There was an unexpected situation in the sky. As soon as Yuan Xueping's pigs were brought back, they began to get sick. 15 pigs died in three days, with a loss of nearly 20,000 yuan, and there was a trend of spread. Yuan Xueping was like an ant on a hot pot, and he didn't know what to do. In times of crisis, the local party and government and animal husbandry departments extended a helping hand to him, and Yuan Xueping was deeply moved by the concern and support of the organization and animal husbandry departments, and strengthened his confidence in development.

One wave after another, Yuan Xueping's pig farm finally stepped into the right track of development, but encountered new problems. The factory he leased is the old factory left over from the relocation of the original Hongguang factory in 1997. In the second half of 2002, due to the need of attracting investment and investment in Huaying City, Yuan Xueping's pig farm needed to be relocated. Although he received compensation of 700000 yuan, he still suffered a great loss. But he resolutely moved out of the original Hongguang factory in order to take care of the overall situation.

Start a business, fail, succeed, fail again. But he has a belief that persistence is victory. At the end of 2002, Yuan Xueping rented 15 mu of land in three groups of Liushuigou Village, Lushi Town, with a total investment of 2.8 million yuan.

In two months, a brand-new pig breeding farm-Guang'an Hongyuan Pig Farm was built, and now there are 500 sows and 10 boars of high quality such as LY, YL, Landrace and York. After several years of operation, the effect is good. A total of more than 20000 pigs have been produced, with an annual sales income of more than 10 million yuan, a national creation tax of more than 800,000 yuan, and a surplus rural labor force of more than 180 people.

Develop and lead the villagers to become rich

"A single flower does not make a spring, a hundred flowers blossom in spring." this is Yuan Xueping's mantra. He laid down "three preferential policies" for villagers who are willing to raise pigs: first, they should give a 5% profit on the price, and to poor households to raise pigs on credit first. Pay when the pig comes out of the pen or when the sow gives birth; second, it is necessary to give free guidance on raising techniques. Third, the piglets purchased by the masses should be purchased at the market price after fattening, and a purchase and sales contract should be signed to protect them.

In the past two years, Yuan Xueping has sold a total of 657 piglets to poor families in the town on credit of more than 100,000 yuan and a profit of more than 10000 yuan, thus promoting the development of the town's pig industry. As a result, Lu Town has become a famous pig development base town in Huaying City. Wang Dexiu of Group 2 in Shanmenkou Village of the town is a famous poor household in the village. his parents are old and sick for a long time, and all three children are in school. The family is very difficult, with an annual income of less than 5000 yuan. Wang Dexiu bought 30 piglets on credit at Yuan Xueping Pig Farm and raised them home. After more than two years, the number expanded to 100, with an annual income of 100000 yuan and a net income of 40, 000 yuan, thus shrugging off the hat of poverty. Hu Guilin, three groups of Dashiba Village in the town, bought 20 piglets at Yuan Xueping Pig Farm and 5 breeding pigs on credit to raise them at home. In just two years, the annual income reached 80,000 yuan, and the annual net income reached 30,000 yuan, thus embarking on the road of raising pigs to become rich. Driven by Yuan Xueping, most of the poor farmers in Lu Town got rid of poverty by raising pigs, and some people became rich by raising pigs.

In addition to raising breeding pigs, Yuan Xueping currently has 1410 fattening pigs, of which 1120 have been fattened this year, with an output value of 2.2 million yuan and a net income of 360000 yuan. Yuan Xueping said to the author: we are prepared to continue to expand the scale on the existing basis, so as to make the whole town a veritable town of raising pigs and becoming rich.
