In the context of national rural revitalization, the "three rural" work in 2024 is particularly crucial.
Recently, at the press conference held by the State Council Information Office, the Vice Minister of Agriculture and Rural Affairs introduced the focus of China's "three rural" work in 2024, saying that the agricultural and rural departments will focus on laying the foundation, stabilizing production capacity, preventing risks, increasing vitality, and promoting new progress in the "three rural" work.
Work layout
Focusing on food security to ensure the supply of agricultural products; Focusing on rural development and construction, we will build livable, workable and beautiful villages.
Work initiatives
Focus on "two guarantees, three promotions, and two strengthenings". The "two guarantees" are to ensure food security and not return to poverty on a large scale; "Three improvements" are to improve the level of rural industry, construction and governance; The "two strengthenings" are to strengthen the two-wheel drive of science and technology and reform, and strengthen the measures to increase farmers' income.
Looking at the layout of the "three rural" work in 2024, scientific and technological innovation is undoubtedly the most dazzling highlight. As a key force in promoting the modernization of agriculture and rural areas, scientific and technological innovation will lead agriculture to a higher quality development path.
The rise of new infrastructure provides strong support for agricultural modernization, not only helping to improve the quality and efficiency of agriculture, but also playing an indispensable role in promoting agricultural modernization and rural revitalization.
First, new infrastructure will help improve agricultural productivity. Traditional agricultural production methods often rely on a lot of manual labor, which is inefficient and susceptible to weather and other factors.
New infrastructure, such as the application of the Agricultural Internet of Things, big data and cloud computing technologies, enables agricultural producers to monitor farmland conditions in real time and obtain data such as soil and climate, so as to make more accurate agricultural production decisions. This not only reduces manpower input, but also greatly improves production efficiency.
Secondly, the new infrastructure provides a strong guarantee for the quality and safety of agricultural products. With the increasing concern of consumers about food safety, how to ensure the quality and safety of agricultural products has become an important topic in agricultural development.
New infrastructure, such as food safety traceability systems and agricultural product quality testing equipment, can help producers monitor the quality of agricultural products from source to table and ensure the safety of agricultural products.
In addition, new infrastructure will also help improve rural governance capacity. In rural areas, new infrastructure projects such as smart government affairs and rural e-commerce have not only facilitated the lives of farmers, but also provided new tools and means for rural governance.
Through these platforms, farmers can more easily access government information, participate in rural governance, and improve the efficiency and transparency of rural governance.
Finally, new infrastructure is an effective way to increase farmers' income. Traditional agriculture often faces the problems of large fluctuations and unstable farmers' incomes. New infrastructure, such as rural e-commerce and leisure agriculture, has provided farmers with new incomes.
Farmers can sell their agricultural products directly to consumers through these platforms, increasing the added value of agricultural products, and at the same time, they can also attract tourists to rural tourism and increase farmers' income.
However, while the new infrastructure plays a role in the "three rural" work, it also faces some challenges. For example, the cost of technology is high, farmers' digital literacy needs to be improved, and the network coverage in rural areas is incomplete.
Therefore, enterprises and all sectors of society need to work together, increase investment, strengthen technical training and promotion, and ensure that the new infrastructure truly benefits the vast number of farmers.
Looking forward to the future, with the continuous progress of technology and the expansion of application fields, the new infrastructure will play a more important role in the "three rural" work, let us look forward to a new chapter of scientific and technological prosperity, agricultural prosperity and rural beauty!
