Sanxiang *** full ** reporter Tian Tian.
She has worked in sales, as an executive, and as a factory, and when her career was brilliant and her achievements were small, she resolutely returned to her hometown to start farming. Life is undoubtedly colorful for 47-year-old Dong Minfang this year.
It took her 11 years to go from a glamorous executive in the eyes of others to a "new farmer" rooted in the countryside. Not only self-taught and self-examined with a bachelor's degree in agriculture, but also set up two cooperatives in his hometown to provide "one-stop" services from cultivated land to sales for grain farmers, with a socialized service area of 100,000 mu per year, and more than 10,000 farmers really profit.
On February 22, the cold wave in Yueyang, Hunan Province hit, and Dong Minfang's busy figure appeared in the seedling greenhouse.
From a female executive of a company to a "new farmer".
Sudden cooling, fear of snow, the greenhouse will be crushed, to do a good job of early warning. In the greenhouse, Dong Minfangzai carefully inspected every place, for fear that there would be a mistake in the details that would cause damage to the seedlings.
The woman in front of her, who was exquisitely dressed and talked eloquently about agricultural knowledge, was still a "layman" in everyone's mouth when she decided to return to her hometown to do "farming". In 2013, after many years of wandering, she learned about the development vacancies and prospects of China's new agriculture, and she has always dared to think and dare to do.
When I was a child, I lived in the countryside, but my family spoiled me very much, and I rarely went to the fields to do farm work, so I really didn't have much experience in this area at first. As Dong Minfang said, at first, she was not convinced by the image of a white-collar worker, and she knew that if she wanted to do a good job in new agriculture in her hometown, it was useless to just say it, and the first thing to do was to make herself an expert and expert in agriculture.
Learn by doing, find problems in practice, and ask agricultural experts for advice and ...... if you don't understandIn 2020, Dong Minfang self-taught and self-admitted a bachelor's degree in agronomy from Hunan Agricultural University and became a veritable professional.
The "one-stop" service has benefited 10,000 farmers
When I first came back, there were still many elderly people in the village who used the purely manual method of farming, which was not only tiring but also inefficient. Looking at the villagers who face the loess every day, Dong Minfang decided to change this primitive production method, she used mechanical farming to plant more than 400 acres of farmland, and it is gratifying that it soon ushered in a bumper harvest.
In 2014, the year after she returned to her hometown, she not only expanded her planting area, but also established the Yueyang County Runsheng Rice Professional Cooperative. A year later, she established Yueyang County Fengrui Agricultural Machinery Professional Cooperative to realize the mechanized cultivation of the whole process of rice planting, and provide "one-stop" services from cultivated land to sales for grain farmers, with a socialized service area of 100,000 mu per year, truly making profits for 10,000 farmers.
Traditionally, many people have a view of farmers that is a long time ago. Now it's different, new farmers are not only using the latest farming tools and technologies, but also young new blood is constantly joining them. Dong Fangmin said that in the future, she will continue to take root in this land where she was born and raised, and make this place a happy home in the true sense.
