Who's "farming"?
Recently, a teacher posted some comments on the Internet, saying that some of the practices of the farmer uncles may harm their own future. As soon as these words came out, everyone was very concerned and discussed. But do we really understand the real lives of the peasant uncles and the problems they encountered?
Uncle Farmer, this title represents the most grassroots and hard-working group of people in China. But now, someone has labeled them a "peasant trouble". But what is the real situation? What is their life really like? Is it as noisy as some people say, or is it actually full of hardships? Let's take a good look at it and restore the real life of the farmers.
The Dilemma of the Land: The Helplessness of the New Generation
When we talk about the farmer's uncle, everyone may think of the large fields and the smiling faces of the autumn harvest season. But in reality? It's not all that rosy. Now the young peasant uncles are faced with the problem of a pitiful lack of land. The matter of land distribution has only been done once for a long time, and as a result, many of the new generation of farmers and uncles do not have their own land, so they can only wait with their eyes, or wait for the older generation of farmers and uncles to stop planting and leave the land to them. But this waiting time, maybe how long, the bottom of my heart.
Let's talk about the current situation, as the city grows faster and faster, many farmers and uncles choose to leave their hometowns and go to the city to try their luck and see if they can live a better life. However, when they go to the cities, they often can only find some low-wage, tiring work, and work in the cities, and the peasant uncles do not get the benefits enjoyed by the city people. This kind of differential treatment between urban and rural areas really makes the peasant uncles feel very helpless, and they don't know how to change this situation.
The subsidy is small: the dilemma of a drop in the bucket
In recent years, the state has indeed given more subsidies to agriculture, which has given farmers and uncles some benefits. But, to be honest, this subsidy is like feeding an elephant a grain of rice compared to what they really need, and it is not enough at all. The prices of pesticides and fertilizers, which are necessary for farming, are soaring, but the price of grain just can't go up, and the farmers and uncles can make less and less money.
Also, when the peasant uncles are farming and selling, their hearts are always hanging. Because the market information is always inaccurate, the price is always fluctuating, and the weather, disasters, and other uncertain things may not sell the crops they have worked so hard to sell at a good price, and may even lose money. Therefore, such a small subsidy really can't solve a big problem, and we have to think of more ways to help farmers increase their income and protect their rights and interests.
Price pains: stagnant food prices
Now, although the overall price of food is rising, the price of grain just cannot rise, and may even fall. This makes the farmers and uncles feel very uncertain when they farm the land, and the grain they have worked so hard to grow cannot be sold for a few dollars in the end, which is not a clear loss.
Having said that, food is too important for our country and society. It is the foundation of our daily meals and the foundation of the country's stability. So, we don't just look at food prices in terms of how much money we make, we have to think about the impact it has on our lives. The government and society have to work together to find ways to make the price of food more reasonable and stable, so that farmers and uncles can have a hope for farming, and we can eat with more confidence.
Tax exempt, but is it really easy for farmers?
The exemption of agricultural taxes will certainly reduce some of the burden on the peasants, and this is also a major move by the state to stabilize grain prices and promote agriculture to move forward. However, the tax exemption does not mean that the farmer uncle is at ease. They still have to face many problems and challenges.
On the one hand, although the agricultural tax is exempted, the government also loses this part of the revenue. So where will this missing money be made up? It may have to be raised by raising other taxes, so that in the end, the extra money may still have to be paid by the peasant uncle, and the burden on their shoulders is not much lighter.
On the other hand, after the agricultural tax is exempted, some farmers may not care so much about the preciousness of land resources. Without the tight spell of taxation, some peasant uncles may be able to cultivate more land and cultivate land indiscriminately, just to produce more food. But if this continues, land resources will suffer, and the entire agricultural ecology will also be affected. So, tax exemption seems like a good thing, but you have to look at the problems behind it.
The "Peasant Trouble" Debate: Whose Fault Is It?
It is obviously unfair and irresponsible to call the reasonable demands of the peasants and the difficulties they face "peasant troubles." Farmers and uncles, they are actually quite vulnerable in society, and we should care more about and support their voices and rights and interests. We can't deny the value of farmers and uncles and their contributions to society because of some hype on the Internet or some more extreme things.
On the other hand, we should have a deeper understanding of the real situation of the farmers and their needs, and give them more support and care. The government should invest more money and energy to help agriculture and improve rural infrastructure and services. We should all participate in the revitalization and poverty alleviation of rural areas, and provide more help and resources to farmers. Only in this way can the sustainable development of the rural areas be truly realized, and the lives of the peasants and uncles will be happier.
Epilogue:
The matter of the farmer uncle is really not so simple. This problem is quite complex, and it must be faced and solved with a more open and inclusive attitude. Some people have to throw away prejudice and discrimination, don't look down on or discriminate against the farmer, we have to treat the farmer uncle as our own family, and respect their hard work and lifestyle. Moreover, we can't just talk and not practice, we have to help them sincerely, give them more support and care, so that they can enjoy the good things brought by social development like us. Only in this way can our society be more harmonious and stable, and everyone's life can become more and more satisfying.
