In Shanghai, where every inch of land is valuable, the value of land elements is self-evident. Zhang Yimin, deputy to the National People's Congress and secretary of the general party branch of Lusheng Village, Pujin Street, Minhang District, focused his attention on a type of rural "leftovers" that are difficult to revitalize - sporadic collective construction land.
They are usually distributed in small groups of villagers, with limited plots of land and irregular shapes, and in most cases are used as agricultural warehouses. With the establishment of cooperatives in various places, these warehouses gradually lost their original functions and could only be used for rent. However, due to various reasons such as the warehouse's disrepair, high maintenance costs, and the limited functionality of the plot itself, it is difficult to find suitable long-term tenants, and it is not easy to operate collective assets.
Can the centralized merger and collective operation of "leftovers" become a new way out?Zhang Yimin, who used to work in a restaurant, is used to settling big accounts. Last year, he brought the voices of the villagers to Beijing and submitted a proposal on accelerating the promotion of supporting policies for collective management construction land into the market.
In just one year, the Ministry of Natural Resources has formulated and issued the model text of the Contract for the Transfer of the Right to Use the Land for Collective Management and the Agreement on the Supervision of the Transfer of the Right to Use the Land for the Collective Business, and Lusheng Village is about to launch the pilot project with the support of the relevant departments of Minhang District. These rural "leftovers", which are a headache for the villagers, are expected to be reborn.
The implementation of the proposal made Zhang Yimin feel a lot. "The deputies' suggestions are quickly transformed into people's livelihood and well-being, which can be seen and touched, and this is a vivid interpretation of the whole process of people's democracy. ”
Revitalize land and strengthen the vitality of the collective economy
Ten years ago, after Zhang Yimin returned to his hometown, he was always concerned about how to revitalize land resources. "Whether or not more valuable land can be 'transformed' is related to the future of Lusheng Village. Zhang Yimin's insistence also starts with the story of a village-run factory.
In the 80s of the last century, Lusheng Village Tianma Embroidery Factory became one of the first batch of village-run textile factories in Shanghai. At that time, Shanghai's textile industry coincided with the first era. The village-run factory seized the opportunity to become a leader in the industry, contributing nearly one-third of its tax revenue to the township. To this day, the embroidery factory still has a place in the market.
The person in charge of the company wanted to rebuild the factory and improve production efficiency, but due to the restrictions of policies such as floor area ratio, he had no choice but to give up. "If the floor area ratio index remains unchanged, even if the enterprise tears down and rebuilds the plant, the input-output ratio is not cost-effective. Zhang Yimin explained that in the context of encouraging and supporting the entry of collective management construction land into the market, some villages have taken the lead in experimenting and relaxing the plot ratio, which not only enhances the attractiveness of social capital, but also accelerates the realization of more rural idle assets.
Can Tianma Embroidery Factory replicate this path? Zhang Yimin once learned from many village secretaries in three provinces and one city in the Yangtze River Delta. During the investigation, he found that some villages are actively piloting "villagers to shareholders". "This is a good way to strengthen the collective economy, but the key is to do a good job of 'expectation management' for the villagers, so that the village collective can focus on more long-term investments. ”
Digital empowerment, skillfully use the "agricultural map" to find the right characteristics
After making full use of the policy dividends and "changing" more available land, Zhang Yimin has a long-term plan for rural revitalization. "Rural development is afraid of a swarm of bees, this year's garlic is expensive, everyone grows garlic; Strawberries are expensive, and everyone grows strawberries. This down-to-earth feeling comes from life practice.
Lusheng Village actively introduces social forces to operate agricultural cooperatives with distinctive brands, and grows agricultural products such as watermelons and crisp pears with high added value. For example, watermelons, which are named "green fat men", can be sold for 100 yuan a **, which is in short supply in the market. Zhang Yimin, who has tasted the sweetness from characteristic management, understands the importance of "knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent" in the development of rural industries.
However, for many farmers working alone, it is not easy to bridge the information gap between supply and demand. This year, Zhang Yimin plans to submit a representative proposal on rural digitalization. He expects that the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and other relevant ministries and commissions can break through data barriers and dynamically share information across the country, so that all agricultural layouts can be seen at a glance on the new platform.
From agricultural products**, the flow of agricultural talents to the agricultural subsidy process, etc., all are clear and traceable. In this way, farmers can find out their positioning, develop their advantages, and compete differently according to this "agricultural map". Agricultural subsidy policies can also be dynamically adjusted and updated as needed. "Increase subsidies for projects with high demand, so that policy subsidies can be implemented. ”
