In order to summarize the successful experience of soil and water conservation prevention and control, scientifically plan to promote the prevention and control of soil and water conservation in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River in the "14th Five-Year Plan", and accelerate the high-quality development of water and soil conservation in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, from December 13 to December 14, the Sichuan Provincial Water Conservancy Department invited the media to go deep into the frontline and visit the demonstration sites of soil erosion in Sichuan.
Located in the northwest of the Sichuan Basin, Zhongjiang County, Deyang City, Sichuan Province, belongs to a large hilly agricultural county, with an area of 2200 km², and as of 2020, the area of water and soil erosion in Zhongjiang County is 787.23 square kilometers, accounting for 35.8% of the area, which belongs to the national key water and soil conservation control area. In recent years, Zhongjiang County has continuously strengthened the governance of small watersheds by controlling erosion, protecting water sources, and controlling loss, and scientifically coordinated the implementation of three major projects of water environment improvement, water ecological governance, and water function restoration, which has effectively promoted the organic connection between water and soil conservation and ecological environmental protection and rural revitalization. On December 14, the cover reporter visited Zhongjiang County, Deyang City, Sichuan Province, to learn the story behind the local soil and water conservation work.

Consolidate the foundation of water conservation governance
The introduction of professional cooperatives The average income of the masses increased by about 6,000 yuan
Looking at the now flat land and patches of fruit forests in Jijin Town, Xiao Yao, deputy secretary of the Party Committee of Jijin Town, recalled the past, "In the past, soil erosion here was very serious, belonging to the national key area of soil erosion control, in 2018, the state took the Panshan Village of our town as a demonstration area to build and implement the soil erosion comprehensive treatment project (hereinafter referred to as the water conservation project), involving 13 villages, and the comprehensive treatment of soil erosion area was 16. 84km²”。
"When we chose the site for construction in Jijin Town before, we didn't expect that the government would help us do the work of land leveling and building a reservoir in advance through the water conservation project." The flat land has greatly improved the land utilization rate of our greenhouses, and at the same time, our base has been quickly built and put into production, allowing us to seize the agricultural time in time. Speaking of the early construction of the cooperative, Xie Zhijun, the head of the management base of the Yiling Agricultural Product Planting Professional Cooperative in Zhongjiang County, was full of gratitude for the water conservation project.

It is understood that through the construction of slope improvement ladders, the water conservation project in Jinjin Town makes the slope of the cooperative's greenhouse land become lower, and only water fertilization can achieve an average effect, and will not cause water and fertilizer loss. At the same time, after the field road is repaired, the smooth road makes field transportation more convenient, reduces the amount of labor used by the cooperative, and reduces the production cost. Xie Zhijun also mentioned, "On the basis of using the water conservation project to build a reservoir, we have built a water and fertilizer integration system for the base, and each reservoir is our control center for the integration of water and fertilizer, which greatly facilitates the agricultural activities of the base and improves the efficiency of agricultural affairs, thus eliminating the occurrence of water shortage in the dry season." ”
It is understood that in the construction of the water conservation project, The town has explored and constructed the "core area + radiation area" model, which effectively combines the governance measures with the needs of industrial development, implements supporting measures such as laying reservoirs, intercepting drainage ditches, building production corridors, and developing fruit forests, and through the introduction of zhongjiang County Yiling agricultural product planting professional cooperatives, local villagers can get rent from land circulation, remuneration for workers in the park, share capital for industrial dividends, and collective economic benefits. "Since the completion of our water conservation project, the average household income in Jijin Town has increased by about 6,000 yuan, and it has also provided 6 jobs for poor households with working ability." Xiao Yao, deputy secretary of the party committee of Jijin Town, revealed.
After the treatment of the Huilong Small Watershed, the villagers had a greenway for walking
Promote the experience of water management and agricultural development
Soil and water conservation continues to promote rural revitalization and the construction of shuimei new villages
With the success of the construction of the water protection project in Jijin Town, from 2020 to 2021, the Zhongjiang County Government will further promote the construction of water conservation projects in Guangfu Town and Huilong Town. "The water conservation project in Huilong Town is mainly focused on the core area of Zitong Village, and we have taken a series of measures to promote the economic development of the town, which can not only prevent soil erosion, but also promote the upgrading of rural industries in our town." Huang Fangming, mayor of Huilong Town, talked to reporters about the construction of water protection projects in Huilong Town.
It is reported that Huilong Town has comprehensively treated the area of soil erosion of 14.29km², and the governance of Huilong Small Watershed focuses on protecting the ecological environment of water and soil, while helping the cluster development of Shuimei New Village and promoting rural revitalization. Through the development of fruit forests, the industrial scale of the sericulture integration development zone has been enhanced, and the vegetable integration development zone has been upgraded through land consolidation. In addition, the Huilong Town Cash Crop Industrial Belt and the "Grain-Vegetable" Rotation Industrial Belt have also been developed through the construction of operational roads and supporting small-scale water conservancy and water conservation projects.
Jijin Town Governance Point Farmers are farming
Unlike Huilong Town, the governance of Guangfu Town relies on the local rural natural landscape. In the construction of water conservation projects, Guangfu Town has further increased the intensity of ecological environment governance and protection, and according to the needs of industrial development, adhere to the combination of engineering measures and forest and grassland measures, do a good job in soil and water conservation, and prevent and control soil erosion. At the same time, a four-in-one cooperation model of "government top-level guidance + collective economic leadership + social capital investment + all villagers benefit" has been established, and local culture has been made full use of local culture to create rural tourist attractions integrating characteristic agriculture, fun tourism, and comfortable leisure and vacation, which has promoted the upgrading of rural industries and improved the income of local residents.
Even if the development of Jijin Town, Huilong Town and Guangfu Town has reached a higher new level, the road of water and soil conservation governance in Zhongjiang County is still far from the end. In the next step, Zhongjiang County will continue to focus on the overall situation of rural revitalization, river chief system, and ecological environmental protection, with the countryside as paper, grass and trees as painting, and rivers as ink, promote the comprehensive treatment of small watersheds, strengthen the prevention and control of soil erosion, and reproduce the classic pattern of fields, forests and water in the countryside of western Sichuan.
