Agricultural cultivation has always been the main livelihood of farmers**, but it is currently facing a series of difficulties. First of all, in 2023, the cultivation of agricultural products has been affected by abnormal weather, such as the stunted germination of wheat in Zhumadian. This kind of unexpected event is uncontrollable for farmers and brings them a lot of distress and losses. Secondly, the problem of agricultural products is also a difficult problem that plagues farmers. As Dong Yuhui said, the trough hurts the interests of farmers. Many agricultural products cannot be sold, and are even discounted for a few cents or a few cents, which makes it impossible for farmers to guarantee their income. And even if agricultural products can enter the market, they still face the problem of poor sales. Many farmers grow on their own, lacking sales channels and market partners, making it impossible to convert their produce into income. Farmers are faced with the problem of poor sales after planting crops, coupled with the irregularities of private sales, which makes them confused and predicament.
Farming, as another common way of operation for farmers, is also facing considerable difficulties. Although some influencers earn attention and income by presenting the original ecological breeding process, their main income comes from online marketing, rather than actual farming. In 2023, pork ** will continue to be sluggish, and the early pig disease incident has also had a great impact on the breeding industry. In addition, the increase in the requirements for aquaculture, especially in terms of environmental protection, has increased the cost of aquaculture. For farmers who do not have the conditions to carry out large-scale farming, it is also very difficult to carry out farming in their own villages.
Affected by various factors, many people began to tighten consumption, which had a certain impact on the basic service industry. Many factories had to close, leaving farmers in the cities unable to find jobs. As the main choice of migrant workers, labor, construction, catering and other industries are fiercely competitive due to the small number of employees employed by units. In addition, there is also a phenomenon of some ordinary people pouring into the manual labor market, such as college students engaged in food delivery, express delivery and other jobs. As a result of these phenomena, it is becoming more and more difficult for farmers to find work, and even early returns to their hometowns. In the face of the current predicament, farmers feel hesitant and helpless.
The problems faced by farmers include the difficulties of agricultural planting, the difficulties of breeding, and the unfavorable factors of the working environment. The existence of these problems has caused farmers to face many difficulties in their lives and development. For farmers, the difficulties in growing crops are mainly reflected in abnormal weather, sluggish and marketing problems, which are external factors that cannot be fully controlled. In terms of farming, the pressure of poor and high costs makes it impossible for many farmers to carry out farming activities in their villages. In addition, the recession in the basic service industry and the pressure on employment have made it more and more difficult for farmers to work in cities, and some farmers have even returned to their hometowns ahead of schedule.
In the future, we hope that the relevant departments will pay attention to the problems of farmers and take effective measures to solve the difficulties in planting, breeding and employment. For example, strengthen the construction of agricultural product sales channels and market partners, and provide more agricultural product purchase and sales platforms; Promote cooperation among farmers to improve the processing and brand value of agricultural products; Increase support for agricultural science and technology innovation, and improve the output and quality of agricultural products. At the same time, we should increase investment in skills training for farmers to improve their employability and competitiveness. Through these efforts, we believe that farmers will live a better life in the coming days and make greater contributions to rural development.
