Back in those days, the land was divided into households, and the farmers held their land in their hands with smiles on their faces. This policy has indeed allowed the peasants to have their own land, to be self-sufficient, and no longer to go hungry
However, more than 40 years have passed, and we have to wonder, has such a model really made the peasants rich?
As the old saying goes, "Unity is strength", it makes us reflect on whether a decentralized agricultural business model is really the best choice.
In the past four decades, the word "going it alone" has become almost synonymous with the rural economy. Farmers toiled their land, planting in the spring and harvesting in the fall, and although they were self-sufficient, prosperity always seemed out of reach
Over time, we have found that this decentralized business model may not be the best way to make farmers rich
Imagine if farmers could concentrate their efforts and invest together to create economies of scale.
Collective management is such a model that allows farmers to work together to achieve a win-win situation
In the vast rural land, farmers no longer fight on their own, but unite to contribute to agricultural production.
The benefits of collective management are numerous
First, it enables large-scale operations to increase production and efficiency. Farmers work together and manage in a unified manner, reducing unproductive labor and waste of resources
As a result, the efficiency and quality of agricultural production have been significantly improved.
Second, collective management is also conducive to technological innovation and professional development. With the collective effort, farmers have easier access to the latest planting techniques and management experience
Technical training, expert guidance and other activities can also be carried out smoothly to promote the transformation and promotion of agricultural science and technology.
In addition, collective management also contributes to the full utilization of resources. Rural areas are rich in resources, but it is often difficult to make full use of them alone
Through collective management, we can achieve resource integration and improve comprehensive benefits. For example, farmland irrigation, through collective construction and management, can greatly improve the efficiency of water use and achieve water conservation
Speaking of the benefits of collective management, we have to mention its role in promoting the prosperity of the peasants
Although working alone can make some farmers with a good foundation rich, it is still difficult for most people to get out of the vicious circle of poverty. Collective management, on the other hand, can enable more people to achieve common prosperity and narrow the gap between the rich and the poor
Looking back on the development of agriculture over the past 40 years, we cannot help but feel full of emotion
Although the single-handedness model solves the problem of food and clothing for the peasants, it is difficult for them to become truly prosperous
Now, standing at a new historical starting point, we should re-examine the agricultural development model and explore a path for farmers to achieve common prosperity
