Chapter 132: "Enclosure" is not easy (2/3)
The mouth cannon is cool for a while.
Jiagu wants to establish a high-quality raw material production base, which is to realize the industrialized operation of "enterprise + cooperative", unify the organization of barley planting, unified management, and form a large-scale business model.
But the reality is that if you want to "occupy land is king", but when you raise your arms, there are few responses.
Specifically, the local farmers in Longgu County are full of doubts about the establishment of cooperatives.
In the face of Qi Zheng, Secretary Tang of Longgu County was a little embarrassed, but he still swore and said, "Mr. Qi, don't worry." I have asked the government staff to raise their motivation and help you to form a cooperative model as soon as possible......"
Hearing him say this, Qi Zheng was even more uneasy. The purpose of forming cooperatives is to promote the development of rural households, but don't end up being self-defeating and making the people complain.
He hurriedly appeased Secretary Tang first, and then turned his gaze to Ding Xian on the side, "Old Ding, you tell me the specific situation first." ”
Ding Xian is responsible for coordinating the work of the government, and he should know the situation in detail.
"Okay!" Ding Xian did not shy away from Secretary Tang who was present, and spoke eloquently.
It turns out that Longgu County, located in the northwest, is also like most places, where young rural laborers go out to work and do business, girls marry into the city, and children leave the countryside to study, and the scale of land management of rural households gradually develops towards a trend of "middle peasantization".
Medium agriculturalization is relative to small farmers. To put it simply, it is because of the transfer of rural labor that the circulation of land has been promoted. Some peasant households have become "big planters" in the rural areas through contract management, ranging from a few dozen mu to hundreds of mu.
Qi Zheng was a little surprised to hear this, this kind of "middle peasantization" is actually a manifestation of a large-scale trend, and it will be more common in the eastern region for more than ten years.
I didn't expect that this trend has already been reflected in the northwest region, and I think it's because of the sparse population here. Look.Mao.Line.Chinese.Text.Net
But at its core, it's a smallholder economy.
Because even if the scale of cultivation is expanded, in the final analysis, it is still based on individual households, and the characteristics of low labor productivity, weak accumulation, and self-sufficiency are difficult to stabilize for industrialization.
"These middle peasants themselves can maintain a certain amount of income, but they have great doubts about whether they can maintain the same or even higher returns after joining the joint-stock cooperative. Ding Xian explained.
Jiagu implements a land share cooperative, where farmers convert their land into shares and invest in cooperatives, cooperatives through cooperation with Jiagu to unify planning and large-scale operation, and at the end of the year after deducting operating costs, dividends will be distributed to all farmers who have invested in the shares.
After all, Jiagu does not have the reputation of Moutai, to put it mildly, if Jiagu goes bankrupt, the cooperative's income will definitely not be guaranteed.
Therefore, the worries of those middle peasants are not unreasonable.
However, it is very necessary for them to join, otherwise it will cause the land to be divided and fragmented, and it will not be connected into a piece, which will greatly hinder the promotion of agricultural technology and the upgrading of the industrial structure.
Of course, at present, the majority of farmers do not meet the standards of middle farmers, but they have other concerns.
They also know that operating at scale can reduce unit costs, but in this way, mechanized operations will inevitably reduce labor input. Then the problem comes, many farmers have almost no professional skills except for farming, and they can't earn much money when they go out to work, and everyone feels that their strength is useless. ”
"Even if there is a dividend at the end of the year, you can't just be idle all year round, so this is another contradiction. Ding Xian concluded.
Hearing this, Qi Zheng raised his eyebrows and glanced at Secretary Tang.
Secretary Tang laughed.
If the responsibility for the problems of the middle peasants lies with Jiagu, the concerns of ordinary farmers are the responsibility of the government.
At the end of the day, it's an employment issue.
Secretary Tang obviously understands this truth.
However, in the final analysis, the problem of employment is also a problem of economic development, and if economic development is not achieved, employment cannot be guaranteed; if the current economic model of small peasants is maintained, the economy will never develop, and this will fall into a dead circle.
The key to solving the game is to see who pays and who sacrifices.
Qi Zheng fell into thought.
The current situation is actually somewhat similar to poverty alleviation.
Poverty alleviation, backed by country-wide resources and policy support, is difficult. Therefore, Jia Gu encountered difficulties, and Qi Zheng was not too surprised.
Those who have paid attention to poverty alleviation know that the key to poverty alleviation lies in "adapting measures to local conditions and industrial poverty alleviation".
This seems simple, but in fact, there are two problems, the first is to have a stable industry, and the second is that everyone has the determination to change the status quo.
To put it emotionally, poverty alleviation is not only to get rid of poverty in the sense of economics, but also to be self-reliant in the sense of human nature. It is not only necessary to enable those who are temporarily below the poverty line to have a path to a normal standard of living, but also to ignite the spirit of self-improvement from within them.
Roughly speaking, it is necessary to have a way to make money, and at the same time, let them spontaneously and consciously think that it is what they should do, and take the initiative to participate in the market economy.
Back in front of you, it's actually the same thing.
There is a stable industry - government policies set up the stage, enterprises invest in singing, farmers participate in cooperation, plant high-quality malting barley, and purchase and underwrite.
But farmers are not determined to change the status quo, or rather, they are not determined.
Unlike the eastern coast, the economy is relatively developed, there are many development opportunities, and people's knowledge, risk awareness and psychological tolerance are all better.
In the northwest, there are few opportunities for development, and farmers are more attached to the land, because land is already their most important means of production.
Generally speaking, in the case of low risk and low return, they are willing to take it freely, but in the case of high risk and high return, whether it is a middle farmer or a small farmer, they are often hesitant.
On the one hand, it is due to chronic poverty, and on the other hand, it is also due to the lack of social security.
That's a little tricky.
Because neither the government nor Jiagu can do it all.
Of course, Qi Zheng also understands that the reason why he is facing such a situation is because Jiagu wants to "work hard and go fast".
If Jiagu does not pursue one-step cooperation, but first cooperates on a small scale, after a year or two, farmers will see tangible benefits, and integration will be a matter of course.
But if Qi Zheng wants to give full play to the advantages of the Spirit Array, he can't wait for a few years like this; Qingyuan Beer can't afford to wait, how many years can the golden development period of beer beer, if he doesn't take advantage of the undetermined opportunity of the current pattern to lay his own advantages, no matter how big the price is paid in the future, it may be difficult to take advantage.
Now it seems that among the government, enterprises, and farmers, only Jiagu can pay.
Qi Zheng has made a decision.
