Guangdong: Rural Revitalization with Fast Steps to Stabilize Industries | Litchi | Guangdong
High quality development research tour
In June, lychees matured and went on sale, and fruit farmers in Baiqiao Village, Genzi Town, Gaozhou City, Guangdong Province welcomed the busiest time of the year. Picking, removing branches, packing... carts of lychees are sent from here to the whole country.
"Baiqiao Village currently has a lychee planting area of about 6800 acres, making it a provincial-level 'one village, one product' lychee production professional village." He Xia, Deputy Director of the Reception Office of Gaozhou City and First Secretary of Baiqiao Village, introduced that Baiqiao Village, through the Gaozhou lychee industry chain party committee, links enterprises, experts and other resources to further improve the level of planting, sales, processing and other links.
Dried lychee, lychee honey, lychee beverage, lychee yellow wine... At the Longyan Litchi Professional Cooperative in Baiqiao Village, the reporter saw products developed from fresh lychees, and small lychees achieved a "big transformation", making "eating lychees all year round" a reality.
At the same time, Gaozhou City has also taken lychee as the theme, creating an "integrated agricultural, cultural, tourism, and creative" industrial cluster, radiating and driving 400000 fruit farmers to directly participate in 13 business formats such as lychee planting and processing, e-commerce live streaming, cultural and creative tourism, forming a lychee industry belt that integrates fruit acquisition and processing, warehousing and logistics, sightseeing tourism, homestay catering, and other functions, promoting comprehensive rural revitalization through industrial revitalization.
47 year old villager He Shuzhi witnessed the tremendous changes brought by the development of the lychee industry to Baiqiao Village. He said, "In the past, there was no access road in the village, but now the roads at the village gate are well connected, and our income has greatly increased. Sometimes, it can exceed 100000 yuan per year."
From "local specialties" to "wealth fruits", this magnificent transformation is emerging on the land of southern Guangdong. Chaozhou Phoenix Single Cong Tea Industry, Zhuhai Doumen White Banana Sea Bass Industry, Zhanjiang Lianjiang Red Orange Industry... Looking at the entire Guangdong, with "local specialties" as the core, we are developing and strengthening characteristic industries, and the channels for farmers to become rich are being expanded.
The development of industries has also strengthened the collective economy of villages. In Xia Village, Qianwu Town, Doumen District, Zhuhai City, there is a story written in the official script about idle land turning into a "treasure trove". On one side is the antique village memorial archway, and on the other side is the modern apartment building. The traditional village is bursting with new vitality.
"In the past, the apartment building was mainly rented to a driving school as a training ground, and its utilization rate was not high, which brought little income to the villagers." Huang Zhongwen, secretary of the village's general party branch, said that relying on the surrounding Fushan Industrial Park, more and more migrant workers were renting in Xia Village, which has greatly exceeded the registered residence population, and there is a growing trend, so the village decided to deeply develop the idle land.
Thanks to the new rural revitalization assistance and development model of "village collective providing land, state-owned enterprise construction and operation management, paying land use fees during cooperation, and returning them free of charge upon expiration", a complex integrating catering, entertainment, culture, housing and other businesses has emerged on this once vacant land. "Up to now, 110 long-term rental apartments have been settled in, attracting more than 40% of investment. It is expected that the village can increase its annual income by 5 million yuan," said Huang Zhongwen.
The Butterfly Transformation also occurred simultaneously in Zinan Village, Nanzhuang Town, Foshan City. The feeling that Zinan Village gives people is not like the traditional impression of a village. Parks, basketball courts, football fields, kindergartens, primary schools, vocational schools, universities, elderly activity centers, private hospitals, new energy vehicle charging stations... all have complete infrastructure closely related to people's well-being. The beautiful vision of "having a good school at your doorstep" and "not leaving the village for minor illnesses, and having village assistance for major illnesses" is being realized in Zinan Village.
"I used to go out to work, but now I work directly at my doorstep. After the age of 55, I can still receive a monthly pension of 1100 yuan from the village, and I am living a pretty good life." Pan Jianyang, a villager who works as a tourist bus driver in the village, smiled and said.
"Leading by Party building is a key move to promote the development and change of our village!" said Pan Zhusheng, Secretary of the Party Committee and Director of the Village Committee of Zinan Village, a nationally outstanding Communist Party member. Zinan Village, covering an area of 5.88 square kilometers, has 15 natural villages, each of which has a party and mass service center. "Under the guidance of Party building, we have carried out construction and promotion of infrastructure, industrial clusters, and rural civilization in the village, promoting the effective integration of autonomy, rule of law, and moral governance, and creating a livable, business friendly, and beautiful Zinan Village." Pan Zhusheng introduced.
The growth rate of farmers' income has been faster than that of urban residents for 10 consecutive years, and the per capita disposable income ratio of urban and rural residents has shrunk to within 2.46... With the full implementation of the "high-quality development project of 100 counties, 1000 towns, and 10000 villages" in Guangdong, from the Pearl River Delta to the east and northwest of Guangdong, from the coast of the the Pearl River to the Qiongzhou Strait, on the land of southern Guangdong, the new practical goals of rural revitalization, promoting urban and rural integration and regional coordinated development are firm and have a sonorous pace.
