In August 2017, it was included in the national family farm registration system, in 2020 it was rated as a municipal family farm, and in September 2021, it entered the list of provincial demonstration family farms in 2021. From here, a song of hope for the revitalization of the countryside flew out.
Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, every step is filled with the pristine wildness of nature. "Open up the wilderness in the south, and keep the humble return to the garden field... After a long time in the cage, return to nature." Lotus hoe out, wear the moon and return, pace the forest, intoxicated with farming, this is Tao Yuanming's Taoyuan life, but also the 53-year-old farmer Tang Hui's pursuit of free time. When he was busy, he turned the mountains, sniffed the melon and fruit in his spare time, and lived out his casualness in farm life, and lived out the height that everyone envied...
Speaking of Tang Hui, in the Wulingyuan District Zhonghu Rural Yexipu Neighborhood Committee, that is a well-known figure. In 1985, his father was introduced from Yongzhou to the Dayong County Design Institute, and he chose to settle in Dayong County with his father. In 1990, Tang Hui entered the first construction company of Dayong City. In 1997, the enterprise was restructured, and he lost the "iron rice bowl". During this time, he also worked other jobs to make ends meet. In 200, Tang Hui began to form his own construction team, and led his construction team to "knock from east to west" for several years, earning the first bucket of gold in his life.
In 2007, tang Hui was in his early 40s, and he led the construction team to the area of Yexipu in the middle lake. He took a fancy to this place at a glance and contracted 250 acres of orchards in the village. In 2013, the central government's "No. 1 Document" proposed to encourage and support the circulation of contracted land to large professional households, family farms, and farmers' cooperatives. Among them, the concept of "family farm" appeared for the first time in the central "Document No. 1". In Tang Hui's view, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
In 2014, Tang Hui registered a capital of 1 million yuan to establish Zhangjiajie Huiwang Family Farm Co., Ltd., which transferred 7 mu of dry land from surrounding farmers, with a total area of 257 mu. "Contract foreman" turned into "farmer", Tang Hui not only moved his hukou from the city to Yexipu, but also plunged into agriculture without hesitation and started a different life.
Now it is the beginning of the scale, and it is full of vitality all year round: the family farm now has one transport truck, one micro-cultivator and four cutting and irrigation machines. The breeding area is 20 acres, and the breeding houses are 4 buildings of 190 square meters. 200 acres of fruit are planted, and the products are sold online, and are sold to supermarkets, fruit shops and tourists in scenic spots. There are 2 buildings and 14 rooms of 480 square meters. In 2018, Tang Hui improved the varieties and increased the planting of 2,000 bayberry trees, and it is expected to bear fruit in 2022...
Tang Hui is a person with high understanding, who knows everything and knows everything, and under the help and guidance of the rural operation service management station in Wulingyuan District, the planting and breeding technology has gradually mastered and become a "half expert". The farm not only grows seasonal fruits and vegetables such as pears, peaches, figs, persimmons, cherries, pomegranates, pumpkins, etc., but also raises chickens, ducks, geese and other agricultural and sideline products.
When asked where did the money invested in running the farm come from over the years? Tang Hui said that the family's savings have been spent, the government has funded some, borrowed a little out of the house, and invested a part of the income while developing. Now, the entire farm has invested nearly 2 million ...
Talking about the situation on the farm, Tang Hui was satisfied. He said that the state's support policy for agriculture is very good, but after all, the state is so big and there are so many people doing agriculture, and the policy can be taken care of to a little and it will be satisfied. After seven years of operation, the farm has become profitable, and his pace of deep farming has become more and more determined.
Tang Hui simply calculated the income account of the past 3 years, In 2018, the total income was 367,000 yuan, of which: accommodation income was 173,000 yuan, fruit income was 124,000 yuan, poultry income was 69,000 yuan, net profit was 105,000 yuan; in 2019, the total income was 424,000 yuan, of which: accommodation income was 223,000 yuan, fruit income was 122,000 yuan, poultry income was 78,000 yuan, net profit was 115,000 yuan; in 2020, the total income was 287,000 yuan, of which: accommodation income was 120,000 yuan, fruit income was 93,000 yuan, poultry income was 73,000 yuan, and net profit was 62,000 yuan.
Although the increase in personal income is a sign of his career success, Tang Hui has always had his father and fellow villagers in his heart. The scale of the farm's development has been expanding day by day, driving nearly 50 farmers in the village, who have not only learned technology, but also increased their income, and the per capita income has increased by more than 3,000 yuan. At the same time, 2 farmers were encouraged to plant fruit trees and 1 household to plant garden trees, which also achieved better economic returns. Tang Hui also hired 3 farmers to work on his farm, paying a monthly salary of 2,000 yuan.
Asked whether he was tired of running a farm, Tang Hui admitted that it was a lie to say that he was not tired. But he enjoyed all this for the simple reason that he longed for freedom by nature, did not want to be regulated by rules, and only wanted to run his own "acre and three points of land" freely at his own pace. He said that doing agriculture is a thing worth enjoying and should enjoy. Less deception in the business field, more intoxicated nature of the pure heart, no need to bother to observe the color, only take labor in agricultural planting, bother with product sales, and be willing to dedicate within their capabilities.
Since 2015, Zhonghu Township has vigorously developed rural tourism around building a tourist town, and the folk inn has made great progress, creating a large number of homestay brands favored by the market such as "No. 5 Valley" and "Children Coming Home", creating a Zhonghu model for the development of homestays.
By 2018, Tang Hui's farm operation was booming. At this time, Tang Hui had a new idea, he wanted to build an inn in the farm. He wants to combine rural revitalization with agricultural production and tourism, and is committed to building a star-rated ecological leisure farm to achieve a rural paradise that organically integrates sightseeing, leisure, recuperation, picking, tasting, and agricultural activity experience.
With an idea, Tang Hui immediately put it into action. The two old factory buildings originally in the farm were renovated. He took out the techniques he used as a "contractor" to create the original architectural style of the farmyard by restoring, reinforcing, rebuilding, and preserving the traces of handwork. Before and after the investment of 1.5 million yuan in renovation funds. After the renovation is completed, the farm has 14 rooms, a kitchen, a restaurant, which can accommodate 30 people at the same time.
"Half a slope to live in the mountains, with the column to appreciate the green mountains." Tang Hui named his inn "Huiwang Mountain Residence". Sitting on a stone bench in the courtyard, as far as the eye can see, on the left is the mangy green mountain of Yangjiajie Scenic Area, and the cable car passes through the top of the mountain. On the right is the Huangshi Zhai Scenic Area, where the majestic Liuqi Pavilion is clearly visible among the peaks. On the slopes under the green mountains, the breeze is gentle and the melons and fruits are fragrant.
What makes Tang Hui relish is that a set of CCTV "Chinese Poetry Conference" and the Golden Eagle cartoon "Mai Card Kitchen" column have been filmed here. This also allowed the inn to rub a lot of traffic and gain good attention.
It is precisely because of the superior location and resource advantages of the inn that the business of the inn has been good. "At present, accommodation of 300 yuan / room night, a year can receive about 900 tourists, plus catering consumption, the annual output value of about 200,000 yuan, net profit of 15,000 yuan." Tang Hui introduced that the fruits and vegetables on his farm are all made of rotten farm manure, which is environmentally friendly and pollution-free. And guaranteed self-sufficiency, original taste, but also loved by guests.
During the epidemic prevention and control period in 2020, Tang Hui actively participated in the public welfare activity of "Angels in White, The Countryside Is Healed", and completed the donation of 30 room nights. During this year's epidemic prevention and control period, Tang Hui repeatedly sent vegetables and fruits to the township government and health center for free. His act of love has also been spread as a good story in the local area. In the first half of this year, although affected by the epidemic, the income still reached 287,000 yuan.
Talking about the future direction of the farm, Tang Hui is very clear about the goal positioning of the farm, and does not rush to expand the scale of construction, but does it solidly according to its ability. His short-term plan this year is to focus on Huiwang Mountain Residence, improve service quality, and build a farm inn brand; second, continue to improve the infrastructure construction of the farm to build strength for future development.
Count the years and smell the fragrance of the countryside. Tang Hui enjoyed this comfortable life. He said that when he entered the farm, he would put aside all his troubles, enjoy a leisurely and quiet, and strive to be a good "farmer".
