Model essay on social investigation
Agriculture, farmers and rural issues are the basic issues that our party has always attached great importance to in the revolution and construction. After half a century's development, it has been proved that agriculture has a bumper harvest, solid foundation, rich farmers, prosperous country, stable countryside and social peace. The problems of agriculture, rural areas and farmers have always been important issues related to the overall economic and social development of the whole country. Since the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee has deepened its understanding of solving the problems concerning agriculture, rural areas and farmers, intensified its reform measures and policies, and formed a policy environment and social atmosphere that is increasingly conducive to rural development. In response to the call of the Youth League Committee of Jining Vocational and Technical College of the Communist Youth League, and in order to let students better participate in social practice, exercise themselves and enrich themselves in practice, the youth team of our college made the following research on the "three rural issues", which was conducted in Malinggang Town, Mudan District, Heze City:
Brief introduction of Malinggang Town: Malinggang Town has a profound historical and cultural background. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there are magical legends in the sites of Qingqiu Ancient Heap, Longwang Temple, Bamutai and Huang Chao Temple. Golden pear 1 10,000 mu, miscellaneous fruit10.3 million mu and 40,000 mu of pollution-free vegetables provide Malinggang town with rich ecological agricultural resources. Malinggang Town takes rural tourism as the starting point, and relies on agricultural high-tech demonstration parks, making efforts to build provincial-level science and technology demonstration parks, green corridors of Qingqiu ancient piles and "three points and one line" tourism projects on Majie Road, holding a 10,000-mu Golden Pear and Pear Festival, grasping the characteristics and forming the highlights of rural eco-tourism. Build Malinggang into "the most suitable living place in southwest Shandong" and "the back garden of Heze City". The people of Malinggang Town are honest and hospitable, and welcome tourists from all over the world to visit at any time.
First, the status quo of agricultural and rural development in Malinggang Town
(A) In 2007, the development momentum of agriculture and rural areas was good.
In 2007, the agricultural and rural situation inherited the good momentum of rising in previous years and continued to maintain a good development trend. In the case of frequent natural disasters and high base in the previous year, the expected results have been achieved.
1 grain output has risen steadily. The total grain output of Malinggang in 2005 was 80 million Jin, and that of Malinggang in 2006 was 83 million Jin, an increase of 3 million Jin over the previous year. Grain production increased by 3 million Jin, a record high. In 2007, in the case of serious natural disasters, the total grain output is expected to reach 85 million Jin, achieving the goal of three consecutive years of growth.
Farmers' income continued to grow rapidly. In 2005, the per capita income of farmers in Malinggang Town was 1940 yuan, an increase of 120 yuan over the previous year. In 2006, the per capita income of farmers was 2 120 yuan, an increase over the previous year 180 yuan. Now the government is improving the subsidy system. Now farmers get the benefit of wheat subsidies. According to the amount of land in our town, per mu is more than 15, as well as fertilizer subsidies and diesel subsidies. Now the policy of benefiting farmers is under way.
3. The new direction of the development of rural social undertakings. In 2006, the state implemented the reform of the funding guarantee mechanism for compulsory education, and rural compulsory education was exempted from tuition and miscellaneous fees. About 6000 primary school students with financial difficulties in rural families in Malinggang enjoy exemption from tuition and miscellaneous fees. The new rural cooperative medical system is still advancing, and the rural minimum living security system has been established. At present, 500 people in Malinggang Town have been included in the local minimum living security system, 300 people have been included in the "five guarantees" support, and 150 people have been included in the regular quantitative relief for poor rural households.
New breakthroughs have been made in poverty alleviation. It is estimated that by the end of 2007, the number of poor people in Malinggang will be reduced to zero, and the number of low-income poor people will be reduced by about 400 compared with the previous year.
Substantial progress has been made in safeguarding the rights and interests of migrant workers. Migrant workers have made some new progress in employment contracts, work standards, improving the working environment, and protecting their children's rights and interests in school, work-related injuries, medical care, and pension.
6. Rural society remained stable. Farmers' mood generally improved, and the relationship between the party and the masses in rural areas was further improved. Group incidents and vicious cases continue to decrease, and rural society is generally stable.
On September 7th, 2007, 17, gongs and drums were playing, colorful flags were flying, people were buzzing with excitement, and 12 salutes were ringing. The launching ceremony of rural tourism in Mudan District and Malinggang Town was officially launched. Li Fahong, deputy mayor of the municipal government, Peng Jinghua, deputy director of the Municipal People's Congress, Li Shufeng, deputy secretary general of the municipal government, Wang Dianchang, director of the Municipal Tourism Bureau, Ding Zhigang, deputy head of the Peony District Government, Hang Xinjie and other relevant leaders and the main leaders of Malinggang Town attended the launching ceremony. The ceremony was presided over by Hang Xinjie, deputy mayor of Malinggang Town. Chen Xiaocun, secretary of the Party Committee, delivered an opening speech, and Zhang Zheng, director of the Municipal Tourism Bureau.
In recent years, Muli Village has been aiming at the "444 1" project proposed by the municipal party committee and government. Under the correct leadership of the district committee and government, Muli Village has been aiming at the rural tourism market, highlighting its advantages, giving full play to its characteristics, carefully planning and paying close attention to its implementation. With the rapid economic development, the village has taken on a new look. "Papaya, persimmon and dough sculpture" is known as the three treasures of Muli Village; Moon Bay Fish Pond, Farmers Square, Village Cultural Courtyard and Archway are the four landmark buildings in Muli Village. Household tap water, Huancun Road, Orchard Road, and village hutongs are all hardened, extending in all directions. The streets in the village are clean and tidy, with flowers blooming on both sides, fruit trees and green trees alternating with each other, presenting a beautiful scene of "spring blossoms, autumn harvest, flowers and fruits, evergreen seasons". There are 200 mu of pollution-free vegetables for tourists to taste, 400 mu of sightseeing picking garden for tourists to pick and buy at will, and 100 mu of fish pond for tourists to fish quietly. The unique farmhouse meal is memorable. Muli village is green, fragrant with flowers and fruits, with simple folk customs, numerous folk customs and warm hospitality. Developing rural eco-folk tourism has unique resources and innate advantages.
Muli village has a long history and outstanding people. It is the birthplace of Plum Blossom Boxing and Tea Boxing in Southwest Shandong, and has always retained the Plum Blossom Boxing Performing Art Troupe. He once nurtured Mu Deqian, the former propaganda minister and revolutionary martyr of Nanhua County; Li Junxing, a famous dough sculpture artist who won the title of "National Arts and Crafts Old Artist"; Fangqing Li, the master of dough sculpture, was awarded the title of "Folk Arts and Crafts Artist" by UNESCO and China Folk Artists Association.

(b) Rural agriculture still faces many problems.
There are still many contradictions in agriculture in Malinggang town, such as fragile agricultural infrastructure, backward material and technical equipment, few ways for farmers to expand employment, and difficulties in increasing income.
The production conditions of 1 are increasingly severe. At present and in the future, China's industrialization and urbanization will advance rapidly, which is the development direction of Malinggang Town and the inevitable requirement of modernization. First of all, the sharp decline of cultivated land and the shortage of fresh water resources will be a stumbling block to rural development. Environmental pollution is becoming more and more serious.
2. The construction of rural infrastructure and the development of social undertakings such as education, health and culture are obviously lagging behind. Problems such as the low quality of rural primary education in Malinggang town and the lack of medical care and medicine for farmers are still outstanding. At present, there are still more than 20 administrative villages in Malinggang town that have no access to roads. More than 40,000 farmers have unsafe drinking water, and their general education level is low. Only 4% are college students, less than 15% are high school students, and 6% are illiterate. The medical equipment is relatively poor and the technical content is relatively low. At present, there are no cultural stations in all administrative villages in the town, and only three or four sets of TV programs can be seen in areas where "every village is connected". However, the programs broadcast by TV stations are all rubbish. As a TV station, we should spread civilization and criticize Heze TV station by name. The programs they broadcast are all promoting health care products, which seriously affects the physical and mental development of minors in this area. Such TV stations should be banned.
Frequent natural disasters occurred in Malinggang town, Heze region in 2005, and they were not spared for five hours. The rainfall reached 200 mm, which caused the river to skyrocket. The water around low-lying villages is as deep as 300 mm, and crops are soaked in water for a long time, resulting in a large area of grain failure; The rainfall in 2006 was a little less than the previous year; In 2007, the disaster was the worst in three years. 13 On August 3rd, from 2 pm to 5 pm, a rainstorm hit Malinggang town, with a precipitation of 200mm and hail. After the rain, what we saw was a mess. Trees were uprooted and dumped in a large area. 8000 trees were dumped, and the area of corn dumped reached more than 20 hectares. Corn has been soaked in water for a long time, resulting in a large area of death, no harvest, no harvest. What I saw most in the survey was the helplessness of farmers. ...
Second, the task of modern agricultural construction is arduous
Building modern agriculture is a grand project, involving all aspects of rural economy and society. To build a new socialist countryside, we must take Mao Zedong Thought, Deng Xiaoping Theory and Theory of Three Represents as the guidance, comprehensively implement Scientific Outlook on Development, coordinate urban and rural economy, implement industry to feed agriculture, take cities as the driving force, consolidate and improve the policy of supporting agriculture and benefiting farmers, increase investment in agriculture and rural areas, and speed up the construction of rural infrastructure. Building a new socialist countryside is the general program of rural work in the historical period of building a well-off society in an all-round way and basically realizing modernization. We must persist in the basic direction of solidly promoting the construction of a new socialist countryside for a long time, but we should also proceed from reality and highlight the phased and annual work priorities:
To realize the sustained, rapid and stable development of agriculture in Scientific Outlook on Development, we must also implement Scientific Outlook on Development. Especially in the context of increasingly severe environmental problems, agriculture must speed up the transformation of growth mode, adjust agricultural structure, reduce resource consumption and environmental pollution, improve land output rate, resource utilization rate and labor productivity, and realize rapid, sound and sustainable development of agriculture. This must accelerate the realization of modern agricultural production means, production methods and production concepts.
Promoting modern agriculture has reached a substantive stage. Nowadays, TV, magazines and government information networks all emphasize modern agriculture. Agriculture is a relatively weak field in the national economy. The bright spot of current development is that promoting agriculture through industry and taking cities and villages as the direction of current economic development.
The task of building a modern countryside is relatively heavy, the rural infrastructure is relatively weak, the industrial structure is optimized, the village-to-village communication project needs to be completed, the development of rural grassroots party organizations is slow, the quality of farmers is improved, and the reform is deepened, which is conducive to the adjustment of agricultural industrial structure and the all-round development of rural economy and society.
4 Advanced management concepts To build modern agriculture, we need to manage agriculture with modern development concepts, equip agriculture with material conditions, transform agriculture with advanced science and technology, manage agriculture with modern management forms, and train new farmers to develop agriculture. Improve agricultural modernization sprinkler irrigation mode, mechanization level and informatization level, and improve agricultural output rate, resource utilization rate and labor productivity.
5. New agricultural farmers vigorously carry out agricultural production skills and market economy knowledge training, and strive to cultivate farmers into modern farmers with more market awareness, higher production skills and certain economic management capabilities. At the same time, vigorously develop aquaculture and planting (Sancha Church grape planting base and Chenglou Village apple orchard management), encourage agricultural products processing enterprises to build agricultural products processing bases, teach farmers advanced technology and modern management concepts, and improve the degree of organization of farmers entering the market.
There are still many obstacles on the road to urbanization. In order to earn money, farmers in modern society have to leave their homes and go to developed cities. However, it is difficult for farmers to settle in cities. Rural laborers leave their household registration and enter cities. However, due to various institutional obstacles, these farmers cannot settle in cities. Due to the difficulties in employment, housing and social insurance, it is difficult for migrant workers to change their identity, become citizens and integrate into the city.
Third, what else needs to be done to realize modern agriculture and rural areas?
1 Strengthen the construction of grass-roots party organizations, consolidate and develop rural party member, carry out educational activities first, select and strengthen the leading bodies of rural party organizations, strengthen the construction of party style and clean government in rural grass-roots units, and enhance the creativity, cohesion and combat effectiveness of grass-roots party organizations. Improve village party organizations, improve the system of village affairs openness, and promote the healthy development of rural grassroots democracy.
2. Do a good job in the comprehensive management of rural social security and maintain rural stability and order.
Strengthen the construction of spiritual civilization in rural areas, carry out the education activities of socialist concept of honor and disgrace with "eight honors and eight disgraces" as the main content, promote the creation of mass spiritual civilization, guide farmers to advocate science and resist superstition, and promote the harmonious development of rural areas.
Strengthen river regulation, ensure the smooth flow of rivers in flood season and minimize natural disasters. Strengthen the management of field drainage channels, and solve disputes among farmers caused by drainage.
Weather forecast should be timely and accurate. This is a prerequisite for disaster prevention and resilience.
Rural sports facilities are not perfect, and the rural national fitness campaign has not yet been implemented in towns and villages.
Implement Scientific Outlook on Development, actively develop education, improve the level of rural primary and secondary education, build a perfect team of teachers, and develop rural education.
Medical and health services are urgent, rural cooperative medical care has not been popularized, it is still common to see a doctor, and unsafe drinking water is widespread in rural areas.
Fourth, the feeling of social practice.
Seven members of our youth team came to Malinggang Town, Heze City to carry out social practice activities of "going to the countryside" for college students in summer vacation. During our five days in Malinggang town, we went deep into the countryside and farmers to investigate and study. In the countryside, we have learned a lot that books can't, and at the same time we have seen some problems. This is the first time that our college students are so keen on rural issues and think deeply about them. Among them, what everyone is most concerned about and discussing is the development of rural economy.
Now China has begun to implement the third-step strategic plan, build a well-off society in an all-round way and speed up the modernization process, which will put forward higher requirements for agriculture. Whether the economic structure of China can be smoothly adjusted and whether the national economy can develop faster and better depends largely on whether the agricultural foundation is stable. Only by strengthening the agricultural foundation and ensuring the supply of agricultural products can industrialization and urbanization be smoothly promoted; Only by strengthening the agricultural foundation and opening the agricultural market can we support the rapid growth of the national economy. Agricultural benefits and farmers' income are not only related to rural reform, development and stability, but also to the overall situation of national economic and social development. The outline of the Tenth Five-Year Plan puts forward that we must attach great importance to the issue of farmers' income, and take doing everything possible to increase farmers' income as the basic goal of doing a good job in agriculture and rural work in the new stage and promoting agricultural and rural economic restructuring. Here, we can not only find the embodiment and verification of academic theory, but also find the sense of reality close to reality. While seeking knowledge, while harvesting, the practical task was successfully completed. Because we remember the purpose of the team: unity, friendship, mutual assistance and progress. This year's summer social practice activities have ended, but the great influence brought by social practice is far from over.
Looking back on the course of social practice, I feel very gratified. Although I have no brilliant achievements, I have seen my growth and my contribution to social development! We walked out of the campus, into the society, into the road of combining with practice, into the big classroom of the society, weathered the storm, saw the world, tested our knowledge and exercised our ability, which laid a solid foundation for better serving the society in the future. Facing the fierce talent competition and the improvement of commodity economy society in the future, we should constantly learn new knowledge and skills to ensure that we have an advantage in professional competition! In the vast society, there are still many unexplored fields waiting for young people to fight for. We will stand at a new starting point in our continuous study and practice, and show the elegance of college students in the new century with our knowledge, innovative spirit and fighting spirit. The countryside is a real hot spot, the cradle of young people's growth and a vast world for young people's career development. The road ahead is still farther and longer. Only by always maintaining an upward attitude and a positive attitude, there is nothing to resist, let alone the maturity brought by growth. I believe my maturity will enable me to study and work in by going up one flight of stairs in the future!
