Many people usually work hard in the city, and they will only go back to their rural hometown during the New Year's holidays, but as long as they go back, they will find that the countryside is really a big change every year. In fact, these trends in rural areas are becoming more and more obvious.
Some people predict that in another 5 years, the following 6 situations may occur in rural areas!
More and more migrant workers are likely to return to the countryside.
Although it is difficult to retain people in rural areas, it is not completely impossible to retain people. And there is a very real problem, if you have a family, a house and arable land in the countryside, if you can't find a job in the city, then where can you go if you don't go back to the countryside?
Regardless of other groups, let's first talk about migrant workers, many of whom do in the city, in fact, build houses on construction sites. But it is true that houses have not been easy to sell in recent years, and house prices have fallen, so the next most likely thing is to sell the built house first, and as for the house, that will be a matter later.
Look at the big cities, in fact, there are really not many construction sites starting now, and because the houses are not easy to sell, the speed of building houses on many construction sites has also slowed down. Some jobs are not to be seen at the age of 35, so what good job can a migrant worker around 50 years old find? Therefore, if migrant workers cannot find the jobs they want in the city, some may return to the countryside.
New energy power generation equipment will become more popular.
Nowadays, there are basically two kinds of new energy power generation, one is wind power generation, and the other is solar power generation, that is, photovoltaics.
For example, in our village, wind power generation has been available since a few years ago, and there were still relatively few power generation fans at the beginning, but after a few years, there have been more and more wind power generation, and wind power generation can be seen in our nearby and coastal villages.
Of course, wind power is only one aspect, and after returning home last year, I also started to see solar power generation, some of which were built on the roofs of villagers' buildings, and some were built on cultivated land. But according to the villagers, if solar power is built on the land, then the cultivated land is basically difficult to grow. After all, these solar panels also block some sunlight, which is not conducive to the growth of plants. Nowadays, we continue to pay attention to environmental protection and new energy, so the power generation methods of these new energy sources should become more common in the future.
The bride price in rural areas is expected to become even higher.
The so-called high bride price, in fact, has only begun to get higher and higher over the years, in addition to the bride price, there are some other requirements, in the previous era the requirements for marriage were not so much, and it will not be so high.
I think the main reason can be explained in one word, that is, scarcity is expensive, because of the imbalance between men and women, the lack of girls, coupled with the implementation of the one-child policy of family planning in the 80s of the last century, many people are more patriarchal, always thinking of having a boy to pass on the lineage.
Therefore, the number of girls in this group of children is even smaller, which also leads to a more imbalanced ratio of men and women in this group. There are so many boys, there are only so few girls, everyone wants to marry a wife, naturally, the requirements of girls will continue to increase, after all, they have a lot of opportunities to choose from, so why not choose a better condition?
And so far, like many rural areas, it is more difficult to marry a daughter-in-law, so the bride price in rural areas should be higher in the future.
Some arable land may be abandoned.
Farming is actually much more difficult than we think, because it is a heavy physical work, and it can be considered a skill. Therefore, if you are not willing to endure hardships, do not want to do manual work, or do not have a certain amount of experience accumulation, it is not so simple to plant the land well. When the older generation is no longer able to race, their children are working in the city again. Therefore, the amount of farmland that has been abandoned may gradually become more and more.
People who are not very rich, but not too short of money, which means that people who have a little savings, may gradually yearn to return to the countryside to live.
Over the years, the construction of beautiful villages has also made great achievements, and now many rural areas are actually quite beautiful, although the income of rural areas is relatively low, but for people who have a little savings. Because they have savings, they don't have to think too much about income, and the consumption in the city is high and the pressure is high, so for this kind of people, they may gradually yearn to return to the countryside to live. Grow some fruits and vegetables by yourself, raise some chickens, ducks and geese, and eat some food grown by yourself, such a life is also a good choice.
Neighbors in the village will gradually become stranger to each other.
To be honest, there are a lot of people in the village now, I really don't know them, although I know that this is from my own village, but I really don't know what to call each other, and some people have forgotten what their names are. There are some people who have been working hard outside for many years, and they will only go back during the New Year's holidays, so they don't know much about it.
