Red Net Moment News, April 24 (Correspondent Tian Jingyang, Xiao Jing) Recently, it was a busy farming season, but some farmers in Longchuan Town, Lukou District, were living a very "leisurely" life. It turned out that they sent their farmland to the "nursery" and handed it over to the "field nanny" for the whole process of mechanized trusteeship.
At 9 o'clock in the morning of April 22, in Huashi Village, Longchuan Town, a high-speed rice transplanting machine was transplanting rice in the field.
58-year-old Xiao Jianjun is the owner of this farmland, he has planted most of his life but this year he became a "hands-off shopkeeper", entrusted his more than 10 acres of cultivated land to Longchuan Town Tongzhan Family Farm, and chose the service package of "substitution of farming, machine insertion, prevention and management". "I don't have to plough the fields or plant the seedlings, and I can still spare time to work outside. Xiao Jianjun said that in previous years, he was busy plowing the fields and planting seedlings, but this year he only needs to supervise the work on the ridges.
The so-called "field nanny", that is, the "land trusteeship" model, in which farmers entrust the land they are unwilling to cultivate or are unable to cultivate to socialized service organizations or large planters, who will cultivate and manage it on their behalf.
Wen Liang, the person in charge of the Tongzhan Family Farm in Longchuan Town, is a "field nanny". In addition to planting 700 acres of early rice, he also provides agricultural socialization services for surrounding farmers, and now the cooperative has more than 10 new agricultural machinery of various types. This year, the agricultural service business contracted by the cooperative has reached more than 400 acres. "From seedling raising to transplanting, plant protection to harvesting, we provide 'one-stop' services, which reduces the labor input of ordinary people and improves yield and efficiency. Wen Liang said.
In the past year, Longchuan Town has focused on the weak links in grain production and served small and medium-sized farmers, and continued to promote the "field nanny" into the village, which can provide semi-managed and fully managed "nanny services" as long as farmers "order food" or "package meals", so that farmers can save worry and effort, increase grain production, and reduce production costs. At present, 12 cooperatives have completed the "order" task of rice transplanting for more than 2,680 mu of 526 farmers, and it is expected to save costs and increase income by 330-500 yuan per mu of land.
