Media review: After liking, it's difficult to think about sun drying food. Grassroots party and government agencies in Henan, Shandong, Shaanxi, and other places have opened hospitals to sun drying food. | Grain | Grassroots
The difficulty of sun drying grain is related to the increase of farmers' income and food security, and the serious shortage of sun drying fields has become an urgent problem to be solved. All regions should adhere to the fundamental purpose of serving the people, accelerate the construction of drying capacity in grain production areas, establish a reasonably arranged drying system in grain production areas, basically meet the drying needs of national grain production areas, further reduce post production losses of grain, and ensure that grain particles are stored in warehouses.
During the summer harvest, continuous rainy weather has become a major challenge for wheat drying. Grassroots party and government agencies in Henan, Shandong, Shaanxi, and other regions have urgently addressed the needs of farmers by opening up flat areas such as courtyards and roads for nearby farmers to sun their crops, alleviating the difficulty of sun drying and winning widespread acclaim. These heartwarming actions are like building a communication bridge between grassroots party and government agencies and the masses, strengthening the relationship between cadres and the masses, and interpreting the responsibility of party and government agencies to love the people. The scene of farmers holding agricultural tools and entering the government compound to sun dry wheat is also destined to become a beautiful scenery for this summer's harvest.
From another perspective, "opening a courtyard to dry grain" also reflects the current shortage of drying sites in rural areas, which cannot meet the needs of farmers. Affected by cloudy and rainy weather, there is a high demand for wheat drying this year, and the problem of difficulty in drying grains has become more prominent. In the past, every household in rural areas had a grain drying field. During the wheat harvest season, the field was bustling with activity. Adults were busy threshing and drying grain, while children played and frolicked on the field. Nowadays, this kind of scene is difficult to reproduce. With the deepening implementation of the household contract responsibility system, as well as the rapid advancement of industrialization and urbanization, there are fewer and fewer rural grain drying farms, and the difficulty of drying grain has become a major problem. In order to "seize the sun" and dry the wheat in a timely manner, the villagers "showed their skills" and took every opportunity to sun dry the wheat. Some people sun wheat in their yards and rooftops, and some even use the road as a sun drying ground, which not only causes a large amount of wheat loss but also poses a hidden danger to traffic safety.
The difficulty of sun drying grain is related to the increase of farmers' income and food security, and the serious shortage of sun drying fields has become an urgent problem to be solved. The behavior of party and government organs opening their doors to allow farmers to sun dry their crops can only solve the urgent situation and cannot fundamentally solve the problem. However, it is not realistic to build a large number of sun drying fields in rural areas. The construction of a grain drying field requires a large amount of land, and the land use problem is not easy to solve. Even if a grain drying field is built, it can only be used during grain harvesting, with a low utilization rate and not cost-effective. A safe approach is for various regions to combine rural revitalization and build multifunctional venues that integrate sports venues, amusement parks, and drying areas. These venues are used for public sports and play during normal times, and for drying grain during busy farming periods. This not only beautifies the village but also facilitates the people, achieving the best of both worlds. Various regions should also make full use of the idle land of grassroots party and government organs, public institutions, enterprises, and schools as temporary drying places, and provide free grain drying to farmers during busy farming seasons.
Improving the drying capacity of grain producing areas is the fundamental way to solve the difficulty of sun drying grain. Compared with traditional manual drying, mechanized drying has higher efficiency and is an important link and key measure to ensure grain quality, reduce post disaster losses, and ensure a bountiful harvest. In recent years, China has vigorously promoted the mechanization of drying in grain producing areas, and has built grain post production service centers nationwide to provide grain drying services for farmers. The construction of drying capacity in grain producing areas has made significant progress. However, it cannot be denied that the mechanization level of grain drying in China is still not high, with prominent problems of unbalanced and insufficient development. In some regions, there are still problems such as insufficient total facilities and equipment, low technical level, and mismatched facilities and equipment. Drying services cannot meet the needs of grain production. All regions should adhere to the fundamental purpose of serving the people, accelerate the construction of drying capacity in grain production areas, establish a reasonably arranged drying system in grain production areas, basically meet the drying needs of national grain production areas, further reduce post production losses of grain, and ensure that grain particles are stored in warehouses.
Harvesting wheat is like extinguishing a fire, but the dragon's mouth snatches away the grain. Currently, the wheat harvest in various regions is still being intensified, and farmers are making every effort to harvest and dry it. The act of opening a courtyard to sun dry grain will definitely boost the confidence of farmers in winning the battle of "Longkou Grains".
