In the rural areas of 2024, the employment situation of farmers is undergoing earth-shaking changes. In the past, farmers often had to go out to work to increase their income, which led to the problem of rural population loss. However, now, with the promotion of comprehensive rural revitalization, farmers' employment options have become more diversified.
The processing of specialty agricultural products is an attractive industrial choice. The abundant agricultural products in rural areas can not only be sold through primitive agriculture, but can also be processed to make agricultural products with unique flavors. This kind of processing not only increases the added value of the product, but also attracts more consumers and further promotes the development of the rural economy. For example, fruit and vegetable processing factories in rural areas are able to make fresh fruits and vegetables into jams, dried vegetables and other products for consumers in urban areas.
In addition, rural tourism has also become a new choice for farmers' employment. With the gradual increase in the demand of urban population for rural tourism, more and more farmers have begun to engage in the development and service of rural tourism. They can run farmhouses, provide rural homestays, and organize tourism activities such as farming experiences and souvenir experiences. Through rural tourism, farmers can not only increase their income, but also show the local customs and promote the inheritance and development of rural culture.
In addition, the rise of e-commerce platforms has also created more employment opportunities for farmers. Through the online platform, farmers can sell their agricultural products directly to consumers, which not only saves the cost of intermediate links, but also can obtain higher profits. In addition, some e-commerce platforms also provide services such as collection and delivery of agricultural products, logistics and distribution, which facilitates the sales and transportation of farmers.
Through these diversified industrial choices, farmers' income** has been greatly enriched, and they are no longer completely dependent on migrant workers. They are able to start a business on their own land, achieve a balance between employment and family life, and enjoy the dividends of rural development.
In the process of comprehensive rural revitalization, the equalization and improvement of public services is an important task. In the past, public services such as basic education, health care, and cultural recreation in rural areas often failed to meet the needs of farmers, which led to the problem of rural population loss. However, with the advancement of rural integration, these public services are rapidly reaching every corner of the village.
First, the equalization of basic education has allowed rural children to enjoy better educational resources. In the past, schools in many rural areas were in poor condition and the quality of teaching was difficult to guarantee. Today, however, more investment has been made in rural education, more modern schools have been built, and better teachers and educational facilities have been provided. In addition, through the popularization of information technology, rural education has also formed a good connection with urban education, and rural students can receive high-quality educational resources through online platforms.
Second, improved health services have enabled farmers to enjoy better health protection. In the past, medical conditions in rural areas were poor and often could not meet the health needs of farmers. However, now, China has strengthened its investment in rural medical and health care, built more medical institutions, and trained more medical personnel. Through the telemedicine platform and the sharing of medical resources, farmers can enjoy the medical services in the same city, which solves the problem of difficult and expensive medical treatment in the past.
Finally, the improvement of cultural and recreational services has enriched rural life. In the past, cultural and recreational resources in rural areas were relatively scarce, and farmers often did not have access to high-quality cultural products and recreational activities. Today, however, it has increased its support for rural cultural undertakings, built more cultural facilities, and held more cultural events. Farmers can enjoy excellent stage plays, film screenings and other cultural activities in rural cultural centers, rural theaters and other places, enriching their cultural life.
These equalization improvements in public services have not only improved the quality of life of farmers, but also strengthened their sense of dignity and pride. Farmers will no longer be forced to leave their homes because of inadequate infrastructure and public services, and will be able to enjoy the comforts and conveniences of the city in their familiar land.
In the process of comprehensive rural revitalization, environmental protection is an important topic. In the past, environmental problems in rural areas were serious, and pollutant emissions and waste of resources were widespread. However, with the popularization of the concept of green development, the environmental situation in rural areas is improving.
First of all, the use of clean energy has become an important driving force for rural development. Traditional rural energy sources often rely on fossil fuels, such as coal and diesel, which not only pollute the environment, but also waste resources. However, today, the use of clean energy has been vigorously promoted, and many solar power and wind power projects have been built in rural areas, realizing the green transformation of energy. The use of clean energy not only reduces the dependence on fossil energy, but also reduces greenhouse gas emissions and promotes the green development of rural areas.
Secondly, the treatment of pollutants has become an important way to improve the rural environment. Pollution problems in rural areas are mainly concentrated in water pollution and pesticide residues. However, with the improvement of environmental protection awareness, the remediation of rural environmental pollution has been intensified, and the environmental supervision of agriculture and rural industry has been strengthened. At the same time, farmers have gradually changed their traditional agricultural planting methods, adopted pollution-free agriculture and organic farming techniques, reduced the use of pesticides and fertilizers, and protected the ecological environment of farmland and water sources.
Finally, the establishment of a circular economy promotes the sustainable development of rural areas. In the past, the use of resources in rural areas was inefficient, and there was often waste and destruction. However, nowadays, measures such as encouraging agricultural mechanization and promoting agroecology have promoted the development of a circular economy in rural areas. Farmers can realize the recycling of resources, reduce the consumption of natural resources, and achieve sustainable rural development through the utilization of agricultural wastes and the production of organic fertilizers.
In short, the comprehensive revitalization of the countryside is not only a first-class act, but a grand event with the participation of the whole people. Urban residents are returning to their hometowns to start businesses, enterprises are investing in agricultural projects, and scientific and technological experts are going to the countryside to pass on technology, and everyone is contributing to the future of the countryside in their own way. This revolutionary performance not only changed the employment situation of farmers and enriched their incomes**, but also improved the equalization of public services and increased environmental awareness. The comprehensive revitalization of rural areas is related to the all-round development of people, social harmony and stability, and the long-term strategic layout of the country. We look forward to 2024, the pace of rural revitalization will be more solid, and the lights of the countryside will shine brightly, so that every farmer can be invincible in the trend of the new era.
