How to write the main deeds of a large grain grower?
More than twenty years ago, ×× vowed not to be a farmer in his life. Today, more than 20 years later, ××, who was named one of the top ten grain growers in the country and a national model worker, has not only settled down to be an out-and-out farmer, but has also become a well-known major grain grower.
In 1986, XX, who failed the college entrance examination, returned to his hometown - Zhoutou Village, XX Town, XX County.
×× is not at ease with the traditional farming life, and only wants to get out of the "farming door". In his own words, "as long as I am not a farmer, I can do anything." But something happened by chance that gave him the idea of farming again.
"It was the summer of 1997. I was doing a sack business in XX. Once I walked into the countryside of XX district and saw that all mechanized farming and harvesting were implemented there. It was not 'hoeing day at noon' at all. , the scene of sweat dripping from the grass,” ×× recalled, “That spectacular sight was really eye-opening to me, and it is still unforgettable.” At this time, an idea arose in his mind: take the ×× model home. , go home and be a farmer!
Working tenaciously to overcome the difficulties of starting a business
In 1998, XX suffered a severe flood that had not happened in a century, and 50,000 acres of farmland in Huanghuwei, XX Town, were affected. The villagers have left their hometowns to find work, leaving 1,018 acres of low-lying fields in the village uncultivated and about to be abandoned.
This thousand acres of abandoned farmland is like a huge stone weighing on ××’s heart. In 1999, despite his family's objections, he made a determined decision to contract these farmlands at a price of 160 yuan per mu. He was determined to learn XX's modern agricultural model and try this new way of farming.
Just do it, XX registered XX Industrial Co., Ltd., spent all the more than 300,000 yuan saved from doing business in the previous years, paid the rent and deposit, and purchased He bought 4 tractors and farm tools, hired 20 farmers as employees, and a businessman became a farmer with great fanfare.
Advocate science and be a pioneer in developing agriculture through science and technology
Agriculture has always relied on the sky. To get rid of the situation of relying on the sky, the only way is to increase investment and improve farming and management methods. XX came to the Provincial Meteorological Department and ordered professional meteorological services at a price of 500 yuan a year, so that he could check the weather conditions by phone 24 hours a day, becoming the "first farmer of XX" to prescribe weather forecasts to guide production.
I remember that in the summer of 1999, it was the season of double harvest. ×× learned from the Meteorological Bureau that there would be sunny weather for 10 days, so he immediately arranged people and farm tools to harvest, harvesting more than 200 acres and more than 100,000 acres in one day. Kilograms of rice are put into storage. The spectacular scene of the "double battle" shocked the neighbors. Everyone exclaimed: "It turns out that fields can still be cultivated like this, and farmers can still work like this!"
This year, ×× net income was more than 100,000 yuan after excluding various expenses. Having tasted the benefits of science and technology, he began to invest on a large scale. He boldly innovated traditional farming models and introduced new agricultural varieties and new technologies. In particular, the new method of planting and breeding of "one field for three uses" explored by him has tripled the net income from one acre of land.
Policies that benefit farmers have become a leading demonstration enterprise
With the support of a series of policies that benefit farmers from the country, ××’s modern farm has grown vigorously. As of 2008, the land he contracted included 11,000 acres of rice, 10,000 acres of water surface, and more than 4,000 acres of duck farming, creating an annual total output value of 150 million yuan.
“It was with the support of science and technology and the support of policies that benefit farmers that I realized my dream after ten years of farming. The land in my hometown raised me and gave me a prosperous career. I am willing to be a farmer for another 50 years!”
When it comes to future development, ×× expressed with confidence that in 2009, he will further adjust and optimize the company’s industrial structure and improve its technological content. By 2010, we strive to build the company into a modern comprehensive agricultural leading enterprise with "clear demonstration effect, wide-ranging radiation to drive farmers to get rich, complete industrial chain, and strong brand competitiveness".
