I would like to correct the misconception that not every peasant is born with land. In our local area, for example, land is adjusted regularly, usually only once every 20-30 years.
This means that only children born at that point in time will have the opportunity to share one acre and three points of land. Children born at other times will not be able to share the land rights until the next adjustment or after the death of the elderly. It can be seen that the peasants' acquisition of land is completely coincidental, not born with it.
The current grain subsidies are far from enough to improve the livelihood of peasants. Taking 119 yuan/mu as an example, a family of three can only receive a subsidy of 358 yuan a year, which is only equivalent to the cost of a meal for people in the city. What's more, this subsidy has to pay various production costs, and it is almost useless to increase peasants' incomes.
In sharp contrast to the soaring prices in the cities, grain prices have risen very little in the past few decades, and there has been no substantial increase in the remuneration of peasants for growing grain. Farming is not only hard work, but also low pay, and the pressure on farmers to survive can be imagined.
Rural infrastructure remains weak. A large number of young and middle-aged people go out to work, and the medical protection for left-behind children and the elderly is insufficient; Inconvenient transportation affects product transportation; The network signal is intermittently increased, and information isolation is increased. All these problems have a direct impact on rural production and life. It is precisely because of these constraints that many of the younger generation choose to leave the countryside. If this continues, the problem of no successor in agriculture will become more severe.
The shortage of educational resources in rural areas is also an important factor affecting the development of peasant children. The university acceptance rate is low, and if you want to be admitted to a prestigious school, the children of farmers must work several times harder. The slightest carelessness may lead to a dream, and this exogenous pressure seriously restricts the fairness of rural education. The direct cause of many children not being lifted out of poverty is the unequal opportunities at the educational stage.
At present, Chinese farmers are still facing many difficulties. They don't "don't know what to do", but they want to change the status quo and get more attention. It is true that there may be improprieties in individual behaviors, but the mainstream farmers are law-abiding, and we only hope that the relevant departments can listen to their voices, understand their hardships, and meet their reasonable demands.
I believe that in order to truly solve the problem of farmers, it is necessary to fundamentally improve the level of modernization of the agricultural system. We should carry out market-oriented grain reforms and gradually liberalize grain prices so that peasants can grow grain profitably. Intensify the construction of rural infrastructure and improve the shortcomings of networks, transportation, and medical care. The third is to increase investment in rural education, promote educational equity, and let the children of farmers also have fair opportunities for development.
In addition, it is also important to establish a sound rural social security system. Including the realization of universal medical insurance and pension insurance coverage, improve the standard of security, and truly enable farmers to live in peace; Improve the system of minimum livelihood security in rural areas to ensure the basic living needs of low-income families.
Improve the support system for the disabled and those living in extreme poverty in rural areas, and provide living allowances and nursing allowances. These measures can effectively reduce the pressure on peasants' survival and enable them to live a happy life.
The "three rural" issues are related to the national economy and people's livelihood, and need to be viewed rationally and actively by all walks of life. As Mr. Wen Tiejun said, whether the dream of rejuvenation can be realized in the end depends on the prosperity of hundreds of millions of farmers rather than one or two cities. Let us join hands to help farmers and friends so that they can live a decent life, so as to promote social progress and create a better future for China.
