On the last night of 2023, the lakeside pedestrian street in the center of Hangzhou is crowded, the clock hand points to 12 o'clock, the mobile phone screen is lit up into a sea of lights, and the constantly refreshing social ** announces the beginning of 2024.
In the countryside, time seems to pass more calmly. Also in Hangzhou, in the far suburbs of Qingshan Village, villagers and tourists light bonfires in their yards. On this night, the fire roasted rice cakes and sweet potatoes, and also warmed everyone's body and mind.
Outside of the hustle and bustle of the city, the countryside has become a place for people to seek inner peace. The confidence brought by the integration and development of local characteristics and modern elements, and the fireworks intertwined with rural customs and trendy business formats, condensed into the unique charm of the countryside. In the vast fields of Zhejiang, the romantic conception of the countryside is being turned into a moving story.
When we focus on the subtleties of these stories, we can see the figures of countless strugglers, who express their attachment to the land and point out the future development. They are the most gentle and powerful pen in the countryside.
Young people, are returning home.
There is no technology and ruthlessness, only the countryside and fireworks. Jiang Xiaofeng was busy updating a circle of friends, these days, he is looking for a big event: in the upcoming lunar month, a "Thousand Year of the Pig Banquet" will be held in Longshan Village, Miaoxi Town, Huzhou, Lake Opera performances, rubbing New Year paintings and other intangible cultural heritage experiences, Playing rice cakes, writing Spring Festival couplets and other folk activities have also been packaged. This is the first village annual party jointly organized by Jiang Xiaofeng and his team and the village.
Since "taking root" in Miaoxi Town a few years ago, Jiang Xiaofeng and a group of young people have repaired the abandoned old granary in the village, and "Gudui Township Innovation" was born. A small world, gathering art space, coffee bar, dining bar, book bar, often hold folk song festivals, folk culture festivals, rural tourism festivals, this is the popular rural agriculture, culture and tourism integration development model, multiple formats for tourists to bring a trendy experience.
But Jiang Xiaofeng has to do much more than that. He used to be a successful "businessman" in a big city, and after changing the track, his intuition and experience told him that he needed to establish a mature system for planning and operating the countryside, which was inseparable from the support of talents. "For rural development to develop, what is most lacking is people, especially energetic and creative young people. He and his team have built a service platform for Gudui Rural Revitalization, providing a full range of entrepreneurial services such as skills training, investment consulting, and brand promotion, creating a "base camp" for incubating rural revitalization talents.
Batch after batch of young people have come to Longshan Village and grown into excellent makers, planners and operators, who have built a rural life experience hall and a rural industry trading platform, revitalized idle resources, operated a shared kitchen with rural neighbors, and connected many boutique villages in Huzhou to develop agricultural research courses and characteristic tourism routes and ......Today, 8 village investment and entrepreneurship projects have been recruited here, 10 rural operation teams have been cultivated, and the village collective economy has increased by 800,000 yuan. Jiang Xiaofeng's team has become one of the top ten cases of rural operation of agricultural makers.
In various parts of Zhejiang, countless "Jiang Xiaofeng" have made the concept of rural planning and operation take root, and the boundaries of rural revitalization have been continuously extended. Young people returned to their hometowns, optimizing the combination of local cultural resources and economic and social benefits, and awakening the sleeping villages.
The "masters" who are full of skills.
Rural development is inseparable from cultural cultivation and planning and operation, and also needs the "support" of technology and industry.
It is the season of strawberries on the market, and Jiande, the "hometown of strawberries in China", ushered in the peak picking season. The greenhouse is crowded with tourists who come to visit, the fragrance of strawberries floats softly in the air, the bright red and clear "Jiande Red", the whole body of the snow-white "Jiande Bailu" and other varieties make people shine, the entrance is fresh and sweet, very amazing.
A small strawberry is poured into the efforts of the "strawberry masters". This "master" is not a casual shout, Jiande has compiled a "strawberry planting" provincial special vocational ability assessment specification, berry farmers after standardized, standardized vocational skills training, after the completion of the examination can hold a certificate "post".
In Yangcunqiao Town, Zhao Jianming, who has been growing strawberries for more than 30 years, is the recognized leader of the "strawberry masters". In the "Strawberry Hospital", he is the "Doctor Zhao" who sits in the consultation, and communicates with the "strawberry masters", ** the incurable diseases encountered in the process of strawberry planting; In the wave of digitalization, he is a keen actor, introducing advanced equipment and concepts, relying on Jiande's "digital intelligence strawberry" system to transform the strawberry farm into a smart digital farm. From the open air to the greenhouse and then to the current intelligent base, Zhao Jianming and the "strawberry masters" have saved a thick "planting scripture", and have also witnessed the development and transformation of the strawberry industry, and have grown all the way.
Today, tens of thousands of "strawberry masters" have brought high-quality varieties and professional technology to nearly 30 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions across the country, and the vines of sweet potato economy continue to stretch. They are either rooted in the local area to start a business to drive farmers to get rich, or they are hired as technical guides, and the gold content of the "Jiande Strawberry Master Certificate" is getting higher and higher.
"Strawberry Master" has become a well-known talent brand, driving the high-quality development of the strawberry industry. According to the data, in 2023, the annual output of strawberries in Jiande will be 100,000 tons, and the annual output value of the whole industrial chain will exceed 4.6 billion yuan, ranking first in the country in terms of industrial scale.
3. Zhejiang first.
Dongyang Red Carpenter" and "Yunhe Master" ......In Zhejiang, a steady stream of local talents is emerging. With the support of policies and funds, they rely on their excellent skills and extraordinary courage to promote the iterative upgrading of agricultural technology and help the development of rural industries. Talent has become a brand; The wisdom of knowledge-based and technical workers continues to break the circle.
My profession is a farmer".
To help rural revitalization, the master is in the people. Up to now, the total number of rural talent resources in Zhejiang Province has reached 22590,000 people.
How to unite the strength of these rural talents and encourage the original villagers, returnees, and new villagers to take root in the "three rurals"? Zhejiang has explored the characteristic road of "farmer professionalization".
In 2017, Zhejiang included new professional farmers in the evaluation of agricultural titles, which is the first in the country. In 2018, the first document clearly stated that "vigorously cultivate new professional farmers, and encourage all localities to carry out pilot projects for the evaluation of professional farmers' titles". Over the years, Zhejiang's agricultural title system has been continuously reformed and improved, up to now, a total of 318 people have been assessed for senior agricultural titles, including 16 senior titles.
At the end of 2023, Zhejiang issued the "Notice on the Evaluation Conditions for the Qualifications of Intermediate and Senior Professional and Technical Positions in Agricultural Technology in Zhejiang Province and the Evaluation Conditions for the Qualifications of Professional Engineers and Senior Engineers in Agricultural Engineering in Zhejiang Province", proposing to appropriately reduce the academic qualifications for the declaration of intermediate titles in agricultural technology series and break through the restrictions on industry specialization; Reduce the proportion of high-quality policy recommendations and research reports, and increase the ......proportion of high-quality policy recommendations and research reportsThis round of revisions makes the evaluation criteria for professional titles more scientific and pragmatic, and attaches more importance to the level of performance and actual contributions.
Farmers can also rate job titles" is no longer a novelty. Professional and technical personnel engaged in agronomy, animal husbandry, veterinary medicine and other fields have become officially certified agronomists, animal husbandry, and veterinarians, and "Tian Xiucai" and "soil experts" have become "professional farmers", with broader development prospects and energy for rural revitalization.
Agricultural makers, rural planning and operation engineers, and "industrial masters" are blooming and growing freely in the land of Zhijiang. They have released the potential of rural development and stimulated the internal power of rural revitalization.
