Since ancient times, the people have taken food as the sky, and food security is the foundation of the country. In this ancient land, Henan and Hebei, as important grain producing towns on the mainland, are self-evident. Recently, in this fertile land, an unbelievable incident of "cutting green and destroying grain" has been staged, which can't help but make people ask: Is there really anyone willing to ignore national food security for the sake of small profits in front of them?
In late spring and early summer, the wheat is green, and it should be the season to look forward to a bumper harvest, but in some fields in Henan and Hebei, there is an unusual scene. Some enterprises buy wheat seedlings directly from farmers at prices as high as 2,100 yuan per mu for feed production. This deal sounds tempting, the company takes care of the harvesting and transportation, and the farmers only need to reap the profits, and can easily earn thousands of yuan more per mu than waiting to sell after maturity, and do not have to worry about natural disasters affecting the harvest. Such a "good thing" has made many farmers excited, and they have chosen to "cut green" transactions.
In Henan and Hebei, per capita cultivated land is scarce, and even if a family earns a few more than 1,000 yuan per mu, it will only add up to a few thousand yuan. If this really affects the country's food security and causes food prices to soar, this extra income is afraid that it will not even be able to exchange for its own rations, and it is really picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelons.
The red line of the law is also sounding the alarm at this moment. Farmers selling seedlings may seem like a personal choice, but in fact they have touched the boundaries of the law. Cultivated land is owned by village collectives, and peasants only enjoy the right to use it, and changing the use of land without authorization is tantamount to a breach of contract. Although there is no contract in black and white, there is a tacit spirit of contract between the peasant and the village collective, which is as unquestionable as growing wheat instead of opium. Such an act not only violates the spirit of the Labor Contract Law, but also tramples on the collective interests.
At a deeper level, this is not just a matter of weak legal awareness, but a consideration related to the long-term well-being of farmers themselves and the overall situation of the country. National food security is the cornerstone of maintaining social stability and ensuring people's basic livelihood. Does giving up long-term stability for the sake of short-term profit reflect a certain short-sightedness and selfishness? It is time for the peasant friends to wake up and understand that the small calculations of the individual cannot override the overall interests of the country and the nation.
Moreover, is there a more complicated international game hidden behind this series of unusual high-priced acquisitions? The current international situation is turbulent, and certain forces do not hesitate to adopt various means in order to contain China's development. This seemingly simple "cutting green" turmoil may be the undercurrent surging under the intervention of external forces. We cannot rule out that certain external forces will take this opportunity to stir up domestic stability and undermine our line of defence on food security. Therefore, the relevant departments must be vigilant and investigate thoroughly to ensure that the country's safety net is not eroded.
Food security, the lifeblood of the country, cannot be lost in the slightest. In this complex and volatile era, every small decision may affect the overall situation of national stability. Farmers need to keep in mind that personal interests are closely linked to the interests of the state, and only when the country's granary is full, can their own rice bowl be stable. In the face of temptation, we should be more sober, not only down-to-earth, but also far-sighted, and jointly protect this fertile soil that has nourished 5,000 years of civilization. At the same time, vigilance and response at the national level are also indispensable to prevent the infiltration and sabotage of external forces, and ensure the efficient operation of the state apparatus, so that every seed can blossom and bear fruit in the right season, and bear the fruits of national prosperity and people's well-being. On the road to maintaining food security, each of us is a guardian, with a great responsibility and a glorious mission.
