2 months ago, Wu Xueying came to Jilin City to help her daughter with her child, but she did not expect to be "trapped" here by the sudden epidemic.
According to Wu Xueying's plan, the family will plant some rice this year, but compared with planting corn, planting rice needs to be planted a month earlier.
April is the key period for spring ploughing in Jilin Province, and the black soil only grows one stubble of grain a year, and if it is missed, it means that the harvest of the year is gone. "I saw that I was about to prepare for farming, but I was dying, and I was on fire, and there were several bubbles in my mouth." Wu Xueying said.

"Affected by the epidemic, the flow of personnel is restricted, and the progress of spring ploughing this year was once slightly slower than in previous years..." said Liu Hongli, deputy director of the Jilin Municipal Bureau of Agriculture and Rural Affairs.
Jilin Province is located in the core area of China's black soil, the grain commodity rate ranks in the forefront of the country, the central region of Jilin is known as the "World Golden Corn Belt" and "The World Golden Rice Belt", each of the 8 ears of corn in the country, there are nearly 1 panicle produced in Jilin.
Just when Wu Xueying and many farmers were worried, Jilin Province introduced a number of measures for farmers who could not return to their hometowns for spring ploughing due to the epidemic to allow eligible farmers to return to their hometowns as soon as possible.

"On April 5, I received a call from the head of the community grid, and in order to ensure spring ploughing, the province launched a work plan for farmers stranded in Changji and Ji to return to their hometowns for spring ploughing. I applied to the community, tested my nucleic acid, and the community informed me that I could return to my hometown after a total of 2 days. Wu Xueying said.
"The counties and municipalities of Jilin City transport the returned peasants to the centralized transfer point in batches, and the county to which the peasants belong arranges for the trucks to go to the centralized transfer point to pick up the peasants through the transfer channel, and at the same time kills each person and one by one." Wang Feng, deputy director of the Jilin Municipal Bureau of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said.
According to the data of the Jilin Municipal Bureau of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, as of the 11th, the total number of people returning to their hometowns in Jilin City was 51,000, and 48,000 people had completed their returns, accounting for 94% of the number of people who needed to return to their hometowns. At present, more than 1,100 passenger vehicles have been arranged in various parts of Jilin Province to ensure the spring ploughing travel of the peasant masses, and to do a good job in vehicle disinfection and prevention and control materials.
