Chapter 136 Development of cooperatives
Lingnan Shanmei.
At this time, many rural villages had already begun to replant, and since most of the paddy fields where rice was grown, in order to avoid flooding in the following rainy season, various rural cooperatives began to repair drainage ditches.
In fact, the rapid development of rural cooperatives in Shanmei is actually related to the social environment of Shanmei.
First, the young people are working in the Pearl River Delta region, and the rest of the old people are farming; Second, many wealthy families feel that farming is too tiring and not cost-effective, and many farmers are actually actually urban residents.
They all aim to add their farmland and orchards to rural cooperatives, and they can get some income every year.
And those young people have no opinion, they are working outside, and the farmland is wasted, so why not use it.
As for those peasants who were originally farming, they could not bear the temptation of wages and five social insurances and one housing fund, so they brought their fields into the cooperatives one after another, and successfully turned into agricultural workers.
In Qinglongtou Village, near Shanmei City, more than a dozen farmers are working in full swing at this time.
Qinglongtou Village Cooperative has transferred a large number of agricultural machinery from the rural cooperatives (branches) in Shanmei City, in fact, agricultural machinery in many areas of the country have obvious uneven distribution of time and space.
Some farmers' agricultural machinery is used less than two or three times a year, and it will rust in the warehouse; Some people don't have agricultural machinery to work with, or they have to rent it.
Rural cooperatives can effectively solve this problem, through the establishment of a comprehensive resource base, you can know how many ploughers, rice transplanters, harvesters, pumps, etc. in an area.
Through reasonable scheduling, the resources are fully utilized, and there is no need for every natural village rural cooperative to purchase a large number of agricultural machinery, which can reduce operating costs and make full use of resources.
The sweaty old farmer Yang Shugen, who is digging the drainage ditch with his hands and feet, is already sixty-three years old, and he should be the age of retirement, but he is still working hard.
Who doesn't want to retire at the age of 60, who doesn't want to enjoy their old age in peace, but the reality is often so cruel, and the peasants and workers in China have sacrificed too much.
Some people have been working all their lives, from ignorant teenagers to gray-haired old people, and the bitterness of this can only be understood by personal experience.
Yang Shugen considered that his two sons were now going to marry a daughter-in-law and buy a house, and that he was still strong, so he worked in the cooperative.
Originally, Huanong Group did not plan to recruit these over-age farmers, but Huang Mingzhe personally promoted a special bill.
That is the "Rural Farmers Special Exemption Act", which allows Huanong Group to hire over-age farmers and retain their original rural social security and medical insurance, but no longer deduct five insurances and one housing fund from their wages.
This is a temporary plan for farmers over 50 years with a period of 10 years from 2015~2025.
After 2025, all migrant workers over the age of 60 will be forced to retire, due to the unified pension issued by Huanong Group.
This is a temporary transition plan, and in 10 years, Huang Mingzhe is confident that with the help of cheap electricity from controlled nuclear fusion, a comprehensive transformation of agriculture and rural areas will be realized, and a real retirement system for farmers will be realized at that time.
Therefore, the 63-year-old Yang Shugen became a special employee of the Qinglongtou Village Rural Cooperative.
He picked up the shawl and towel, wiped the sweat from his forehead, spit on his palms and rubbed it, picked up a hoe and trimmed the ditch.
This is a mechanically dug drainage ditch, but there are always corners and corners that the machinery can't take care of, which needs to be repaired manually.
"Uncle, drink saliva." Nephew Yang Haisheng handed over a bottle of boiled water.
"Haisheng, I'm not thirsty." The poplar roots are hard at work.
Yang Haisheng opened the water bottle by himself, took a big sip of it, and stood up and muttered quietly: "Whew!" It's so good, why don't you plant rice?"
"You kid have to rest and go to the rest area, don't stand here alone, be careful of your bonus this month." The poplar tree reminded without raising its head.
Forehead...... Yang Haisheng was taken aback, and hurriedly picked up a sand shovel to pick up the soil, he was a foreign worker on the farm last month, and was deducted a bonus of 1,000 yuan.
The entire area of the farm is covered with dense surveillance cameras, and no one has a way to grind foreign workers in this situation.
During work, you can go to a special rest area to rest, and the farm has a nine-hour work system, and these nine hours include one hour of rest.
Through the seamless management of artificial intelligence, the principle of more work and more rewards can be implemented.
The artificial intelligence monitoring system of Huanong Group is managed by the headquarters, and the local rural cooperatives have no right to manage it, which avoids the possibility of black-box operation and protects the legitimate interests of agricultural workers.
Whether it is a factory or a company, if it does not pay attention to the grinding of foreign workers, and cannot ensure the fairness and justice of the reward and punishment system, the consequence is that the enthusiasm of those who really work hard will be consumed.
Not far from the ditch repaired by Yang Shugen and others, a large piece of land that has just been leveled, glass greenhouses are being built.
These glass greenhouses are used for growing fruits and vegetables, and are specially reinforced to protect against typhoons.
These greenhouses are not shoddy plastic film greenhouses, but very advanced indoor agricultural greenhouses.
There is a temperature, humidity and light control system, as well as a drip irrigation system that can save water, ozone and ultraviolet disinfection systems.
There is also a very strict air filtration and disinfection system, which can prevent viruses and bacteria and fungi from spreading into the greenhouse, even if you are accidentally infected, you can also close the greenhouse to contain the infection within a certain range.
The proportion of glass greenhouses on the Lingnan side is not large, and in another pilot province, Heijiang Province, glass greenhouses are called large-scale.
At this time, countless glass greenhouses are rising from the ground, not only vegetables and fruits are in the greenhouse, but also rice, wheat, potatoes, millet, soybeans and other food crops are planned to enter the greenhouse production.
Qiqihar City.
Near Prosperity County, here is the Nenjiang Plain, which is also a famous commercial grain planting area in China.
A large area of land is being converted into a glass greenhouse, and the height of the glass greenhouse has reached about fifteen meters.
"Director Xia, will this work? With so many greenhouses, this electricity bill is a big trouble! A farmer asked worriedly.
"Lao Zhao, you can rest assured! Look at this. Xia Yulai opened an internal notification on his mobile phone and said.
Lao Zhao took a puff of the old cigarette stick: "Director Xia, I don't understand a basket of big characters, what are you talking about?"
Several other farmers also pricked up their ears.
"The cooperatives over there in Lingnan have already received subsidized electricity prices, guess how much!" Xia Yulai said mysteriously.
"Is it a dime?"
"How is that possible? Estimated two cents is not bad. ”
Xia Yulai smiled and compared two fingers.
"I mean two cents."
"The price is ok."
"Haha......" Xia Yulai shook his head with a smile and said a number that made people stunned: "Two cents at one time." ”
"What?"
"Two cents at a time?"
"The grid is crazy?"
Obviously, all the farmers were frightened by this figure, and as the northeastern region, which has the highest degree of mechanized agriculture in the country, they all know how cheap this price is.
Xia Yulai explained: "Only those who join rural cooperatives can enjoy this subsidized electricity price, which will be implemented next month in Lingnan, and it may not be until October on our side, and now everyone says that they will not build greenhouses." ”
The peasants, of course, agreed to build it, and if it was at this electricity price, they would dare to turn on the heating and fluorescent lamps in the winter to grow vegetables and grain.
