In 2020, the Lincheng Xitian Village Revitalization Task Force and the Xitian Village Committee implemented the strategic goal of rural revitalization, combined with the unique geographical environment of Xitian Village, rich aquatic and grass resources and the prospects of the cattle market at that time, after obtaining the consent of the villagers, introduced a large-scale beef cattle breeding industry covering an area of 120 acres, hoping to encourage villagers to use idle land to plant grass and raise cattle through the operation mode of "company + cooperative + farmer", so that the village collective economy "cattle" up, enrich the villagers' "pockets", and let the villagers live a "cattle life".
On August 26, this reporter went to the Fumin Kang cattle farm in The village of Xitian in Lincheng Town, where a healthy beef cow was leisurely chewing on herbed, and the breeders were busy harvesting grass, feeding and cleaning the barn.
At present, the company's development of grass cattle breeding project covers an area of 120 acres, including living dormitory area, breeding area, planting area and stocking area, mainly raising Lei Qiong cattle, Longlin cattle, excellent hybrid cattle and other 3 varieties, more than 150 heads, is expected to be able to fatten the rack cattle out of the pen in 4 months.
As the saying goes, "there is grain in your hands, and your heart is not panicked", and this principle is also applicable to cattle raising. The reporter saw at the scene that the cattle did not eat weeds in the field, and the company rented the villagers' land to plant 50 acres of pasture grass, mixed with fermented corn stalks for feeding.
Hainan Fuminkang Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. in the process of carrying out cattle farm site selection, hardening roads and infrastructure construction, has received strong support from the Lincheng Town Committee and the town government, especially the signing, measurement and contract signing of the land for construction, and has been cooperated by the Xitian Village Revitalization Task Force and the Xitian Village Committee, actively coordinating the use of electricity and water to access the plant in many aspects, solving the problems of water and electricity for the production and development of enterprises and the use of water and electricity for daily life, coordinating China Mobile to install 5G networks for enterprises, and solving the problems in the development of industrial companies. It has laid the foundation for the introduction of village collective industries.
The reporter learned that for many years, there has been no collective industry in the village, and the endogenous power of the villagers' own development is insufficient, which restricts the development of the whole village. In order to completely change this situation, the Lincheng Xitian Village Revitalization Task Force and the Xitian Village Committee have held meetings many times, and organized cadres to visit cattle breeding enterprises and market supply and demand in many cities and counties in the province, believing that the cattle market has broad prospects, and after many rounds of industrial investigation, hainan Fuminkang Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. has formed a cooperation intention after many discussions. The company has also absorbed some surplus labor from nearby villages to work in the field, helping them to find local employment nearby.
"Before getting rid of poverty, I raised a few cows at home, the income at that time was not high, last year the company settled in Xitian Village to build a cattle farm, the village committee recommended me to work on the farm, I participated in production management, finally had a fixed income, and my life was also guaranteed." Fu Duhui, a villager in Wenbei Village of the Xitian Village Committee, said.
Fu Duhui is a native of Wenbei Village, Xitian Village Committee, began to raise cattle independently in the early 90s, due to small scale, large investment, his own technology is not mature enough, there is no sufficient forage feeding, cattle growth is slow, can not create greater profits. Later, enjoying the benefits brought by the poverty alleviation industry, Fu Duhui successfully got rid of poverty by independently developing production, and was also named "Lingao County 2020 Entrepreneurial Poverty Alleviation Star".
It is worth mentioning that since the moment of signing the application for poverty alleviation in 2020, Fu Duhui has firmly established his identity as no longer a poor household, and in the same year, he was also hired by Hainan Fuminkang Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. to work on a cattle farm, becoming a formal breeder, following the technical staff to learn the management methods of large-scale cattle farms, and receiving a fixed salary of more than 3,000 yuan per month.
"The biggest gain here is to learn standardized cattle management technology, improve my own cattle raising knowledge, I also have some understanding of all aspects of cattle raising, thank the company for providing me with such a good position, let me become a professional 'cattle breeder'." Fu Duhui, a villager in Wenbei Village of the Xitian Village Committee, said proudly.
In the past, villagers mainly raised cattle on the barren grassland, generally a few, small scale, economic benefits are not high, Hainan Fuminkang Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. took advantage of the fact that there are many weeds in the wasteland of Xitian Village and the villagers have free time, mobilized the villagers to use flooded land, abandoned wasteland to plant pasture, the company in accordance with the standard of 350 yuan per ton for recycling.
"The company has hired 4 farmers as regular employees, the early planting of pasture hired more than 10 farmers to help, has now completed 50 acres of pasture planting, but far from the supply of cattle daily feeding, follow-up will be through the "company + cooperative + farmers" mode of operation, encourage farmers to do a good job in the courtyard economy, use idle land to plant grass and raise cattle, provide a steady stream of hay for cattle farms, but also increase income for farmers. Huang Huizhen, vice chairman of Hainan Fuminkang Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd., said.
It is understood that the company will contract the farmed cows and cowboys to the villagers for stocking, and share the breeding and fattening breeding technology, quarantine and epidemic prevention experience, immunization and treatment, franchise, brand patent rights, market sales channel resources and management experience sharing in the future, helping the villagers to open up breeding and sales channels, so as to connect with the villagers, breathe and share the fate.
"In the past, farmers raised cattle in the form of stocking, which took a long time and the effect of breeding and training was slow. The company is now managed in an intensive farming model, using limited territory to create maximum value. Jin Jinwen, director of FuminKang Cattle Farm, said.
Although it is in its infancy, Hainan Fuminkang Agricultural Technology Co., Ltd. is committed to the development of rural revitalization industry, giving full play to its own advantages, cultivating excellent beef cattle breeds, and using the good effect of "passing on help" to lead villagers to embark on a win-win road of cooperation in industrial development, enterprise profits and farmers' income according to local conditions. The company will also carry out training in cattle raising skills and planting in the future, so that villagers can have a skill in employment at the doorstep of their homes, and the production and life are truly "cattle up".
