With the arrival of 2024, our farmers are facing unprecedented double challenges: the complex and volatile climate problems brought about by global warming, and the severe and complex economic situation. These two major problems are intertwined, which has brought tremendous pressure to the production and livelihood of peasants. Today, let's talk about this topic and see how farmers struggle in difficult situations and find a way out.
1. Climate warming: a new challenge for agricultural production
In recent years, the trend of global warming has become more and more obvious, and extreme weather events have occurred frequently, which has brought great uncertainty to agricultural production. Farmers need to be aware of climate change and adapt their planting structures and production methods to the changing natural environment. At the same time, they should also strengthen the construction of water conservancy infrastructure in farmland, improve the ability to resist drought and flood control, and ensure the safety of grain production.
2. Economic situation: market volatility and cost pressures
In the context of global economic integration, fluctuations in the international market directly affect domestic agricultural products**. Farmers not only have to face the risk of market fluctuations, but also have to bear the constant production costs. Fertilizers, pesticides, seeds and other agricultural materials, as well as the increase in labor costs, have compressed farmers' profit margins. In order to survive and develop, they have to seek new economic growth points and profit models.
3. Farmers' responses: innovation and transformation
In the face of the two major challenges of climate and economy, farmers are not sitting still. They actively learn new knowledge and new technologies, and strive to improve their own quality and the level of agricultural production. Through the introduction of high-quality varieties and the promotion of advanced and applicable technologies and green production methods, they have continuously improved the output and quality of agricultural products and enhanced their market competitiveness. At the same time, they also actively explore the extension of the agricultural industry chain and diversified business models, such as the development of rural tourism, characteristic planting and breeding, etc., in order to broaden income and improve economic benefits.
4. Social support: policy support and scientific and technological innovation
* and all sectors of society should also increase their support for farmers. On the one hand, it is necessary to improve the agricultural support and protection system, increase the intensity of fiscal, tax, credit, and other policy support, and reduce the burden on peasants' production. On the other hand, it is necessary to strengthen scientific and technological innovation and the transformation and application of achievements, and provide farmers with more and better technical equipment and service support. Through the promotion of high-efficiency, cost-saving and efficiency-enhancing technologies, the cultivation of new agricultural business entities, and the strengthening of rural infrastructure construction, we will help farmers improve their production efficiency and ability to resist risks.
5. Conclusion: Overcome difficulties together and welcome a better future
2024 is a year full of challenges, but it is also a year full of opportunities. As long as we work together to overcome difficulties, we will be able to overcome all kinds of difficulties and challenges and usher in a better future. Let us work together to cheer for farmers and friends, and jointly create a prosperous and prosperous new era of agriculture!
