The "slogan" of rural homesteads has attracted widespread attention, who has the final say?
Eye-catching introduction: Recently, a "slogan" written on the rural wall has sparked heated discussions on the Internet - "Homestead is not an ancestral industry, but a collective asset". These eight simple words have struck at the sensitive nerves of farmers about the ownership of homesteads. In the face of this sharp question, the hearts of 900 million farmers could not help but feel a chill. So, who owns the homestead? This is a long-standing issue that deserves to be re-examined.
Sweep away the rivers and lakes
When it comes to homesteads, the hot words "industry" and "ancestral industry" are indispensable. In the hearts of farmers, the homestead is their own home, which not only has the role of residence, but also contains the emotional sustenance passed down from generation to generation. As a result, some peasants were disgusted by the slogan on the wall: "How can the homestead be just a collective property? It is our ancestral heirloom!"
The foundation of generations of farmers
For the vast majority of farmers, homestead land has long transcended the meaning of the material level. It was once a home built by my father's hands, and it was the foundation for generations of ancestors to live and work. Behind every brick and tile, there is countless sweat and hard work. As a result, farmers have a deep belief that "what is their ancestral should be their own".
When you think about it, this concept has long been rooted in the hearts of rural people. It will not be easy to get them to accept the slogan "collective assets" in a short period of time. This requires the government to listen more to the voices of farmers and safeguard their fundamental interests when formulating relevant policies.
Law understands doubts
In fact, the definition of homestead as a "collective asset" is not wishful thinking, but out of clear legal provisions. The Land Management Law promulgated in 1998 clearly states that the ownership of rural homesteads belongs to rural collectives, and farmers only enjoy the right to use them. Since then, governments at all levels have successively introduced policies to strengthen the management of homesteads and prevent large-scale non-agricultural and commercialization.
It can be said that there is a solid legal basis for defining homestead land as a "collective asset". However, peasants with a generally low level of education will inevitably have doubts about this. Therefore, it is incumbent upon the government to intensify policy interpretation to eliminate this blind spot and make farmers understand the true meaning of "collective assets".
Farmers' anxieties need to be responded to
It is undeniable that there are historical and practical reasons for farmers' concerns about the ownership of homesteads. In the minds of farmers, the homestead is equivalent to a homeland and represents the foundation of a family. If even this foundation is deprived, how can the peasants survive in peace?
Therefore, if the formulation and implementation of policies are too blunt, do not respect the dominant position of the peasants, and ignore the emotional demands of the peasants, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction and resistance. In fact, in recent years, the circulation and expropriation of homestead use rights have occurred from time to time, and there are problems of simplification of operation in some areas, which has undoubtedly exacerbated the sense of insecurity of farmers. How to balance the interests of the government and the peasants in this process is indeed a difficult problem that needs to be solved urgently.
Don't be obsessed with adapting to local conditions
To solve this problem, we need to first sweep away prejudices. Homestead ownership is not a black-and-white issue and should not be narrowly understood as belonging only to individuals or collectives. On the contrary, we should protect the rights and interests of farmers to the greatest extent while conforming to the development trend of the times.
Specifically, under the legal framework, farmers are given certain disposal rights, allowing them to operate and use their own homestead resources independently by leasing and transferring. At the same time, in view of the outflow of rural population and the idle of homesteads, the optimal allocation of resources can be achieved by formulating supporting mechanisms such as service life and circulation compensation.
In short, any reform should not rest on its laurels, but should evolve with the times. Only by abandoning the shackles of old ideas and balancing the interests of all parties on the track of the rule of law can we finally win the understanding and support of farmers.
A new picture of the countryside
Looking back on the present, rural revitalization is in full swing. The tide of breaking the old and creating the new has come, and the reform of the homestead system is an important part of it. In the face of this new change, we don't need to be too confused by the simple eight words, but more importantly, we should listen to the call of thousands of lights with an open and inclusive attitude.
Only by realizing the organic unity of the multiple interests of the government, farmers and society can the grand blueprint of rural revitalization be truly formed. At that time, the hearts of the peasants will surely usher in a world of spring blossoms, and 900 million peasants will be smiling.
