Kunming, December 3 (Xinhuanet) -- It is difficult to get rid of poverty, and it is even more difficult in the western region!
The natural conditions are harsh, the poverty is large, the degree of poverty is deep, "there are many mountains and stones, and when you go out, you will climb the slopes", "a large piece of spring planting, and a small harvest in autumn", which is widely spread, and the sorrow of generations of people in the Western Domain is not exhausted.
In the western region, look at the mountains and look at the water.

Blow up stones to make land, and ask for land from shi xu
Located in Xiyu County, Wenshan Zhuang and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, karst landforms account for 75.4% of the county's land area, and the per capita arable land is only 0.78 mu, which is one of the most severe areas of rock desertification in the country.
In the 1990s, muer village in Benggu Township was lined with strange rocks, and crops could only be planted in the cracks of the stones, and the villagers' livelihood became a big problem. In 1990, the villagers lit the first cannon of exploding stone in a stone hut called "Moshi Valley", and the whole village fought for 105 days, and cut out 365 acres of "three guarantees" terrace in the rock pile.
The initiative of "asking for land from the stones" in Muer Village soon blossomed throughout the county. Since the early 1990s, successive county party committees and governments have led the masses to continue to set off a climax in the construction of farmland water conservancy projects with the construction of terraces and the transformation of medium and low-yield fields.
According to statistics, as of now, the county has accumulated 244,000 mu of land, of which more than 100,000 mu have been fried stone. According to preliminary estimates, the total length of the stone mounds formed by moving stones and blowing stones to create land and changing ladders is more than 50,000 kilometers.
In the continuous hard work and hard work of the people of xizhou, the spirit of "moving is not as good as moving stones, and it is better to work hard than to work hard; waiting is not a way, and only by doing can there be hope".
The spirit of the Western Domain is composed by one "foolish public". The villagers of Yantou Village spent 12 years smashing the last kilometer of road into the village on the cliff; 4 families in Xiaojiatang Village worked hard for 6 years and chiseled out 5 kilometers of road; Cheng Dunru of Chengjiapo Village smoothed 20 hoes and planted all 500 acres of stone desert barren mountains with Chinese medicinal materials and forest fruits... In the West Domain, there are many such stories.
Fight against the rocky desert and declare war on poverty. In April 2019, Yunnan Province announced that Xiyu County had reached the poverty alleviation standard and withdrawn from the poverty sequence.
Reviewing the experience of poverty alleviation, Xishu County summed up the "Eight Ones", one of which is "a spiritual guide". Jiang Jun, secretary of the Xizuo County CPC Committee, said that it is precisely the spirit of "waiting is not the way, only by doing can there be hope" that has led the people of Xizuo to challenge the stone desert and fight poverty.

Six sons of Dengke, stone desert barren mountains for green clothes
The control of rocky desertification is undoubtedly the "bull nose" of the western region's war poverty.
After continuous practice and summarization, Xiyu County has explored the "six sons Dengke" comprehensive treatment model of stone desertification that "wears a hat on the top of the mountain, ties on the mountainside, builds a platform at the foot of the mountain, lays blankets on the flat ground, builds a pond in the household, and moves the seat of the village", from a single stone blasting to land, water, and road construction, to a comprehensive treatment of "mountains, water, forests, fields, roads, and villages".
The land area of The Sanguang area of Xingjie Town is 44 square kilometers, and the area of stone desertification accounts for 30 square kilometers, "the trees are cut down, the water and soil are flowing, and the daughter-in-law runs out", and the villagers have suffered from the stone desertification.
The local party committee and government led the people in The Sanguang Area to move the stone and make land, transformed the original Shi Xu into a "Three Guarantees" terrace, and introduced Wenshan Haohong Agricultural Development Co., Ltd. in 2015 to transfer the land to develop kiwifruit cultivation.
Now, climbing to the top of the duoyiping village group in the Sanguang area, you can see that the rock pile that was once black and pressed is now a lush kiwi base. Chen Dengshu, head of Haohong Company, introduced that at present, more than 5,000 mu of land has been transferred, and 2,700 mu of kiwi fruit has been planted, and villagers can not only get land circulation fees, but also work in the base to increase income.
"There is no water in the bald pond in the high mountains, and the fields are thin and the land is half a year's grain", Jianglong Village, Xingjie Town, which also suffers from the stone desert, has planted more than 1,000 mu of trees on the barren mountains of the rock desert, returned 336 mu of farmland to forest, protected 479 mu of ecological public welfare forests, and the forest coverage rate increased from 32% in 1990 to 80.4% in 2018.
In the western region, there are many examples of such "changing heaven and earth". After years of continuous comprehensive improvement, the county has treated 140 square kilometers of rocky desertification, planted 500,000 mu of afforestation, closed 870,000 mu of mountains and cultivated forests, and increased the forest coverage rate from 25% to 50.68%.
In addition to the "Six Sons dengke", Xizhou County has also explored models such as "five legal water" and "four-wheel drive", solved the difficulty of rural roads and drinking water, and built more than 50,000 small water conservancy projects, steadily solved the drinking water safety problems of more than 170,000 rural people, hardened more than 2,900 kilometers of rural roads, and built 4,123 kilometers of rural roads.
