There are three strange phenomena in the rural areas that are more of a headache than the "wife shortage," and the problem has spread to the entire rural areas
Rural education resources are scarce.
In our country, it is generally accepted that the level of educational resources in rural areas is lower than in urban areas. Although the nine-year compulsory education allows most rural children to enter secondary school, it is a huge pressure and challenge for them. First of all, only students who study well can be admitted to middle school, and those students from poor families, when they go to middle school, their parents have to come up with their hard-earned money, which puts a lot of pressure on them. In addition, in remote rural areas, children are not guaranteed even the most basic right to education due to the lack of adequate educational resources. However, due to the influence of regional factors and teachers' psychological quality, the results of the "Volunteer Teaching" activity are not obvious.
Empty nest disease is getting worse.
In the process of urbanization, many people will leave the countryside and go to the city to find their ideal life. As a result, all the young and middle-aged people in the villages have gone out to work, leaving only the elderly and children. In China, the elderly population is increasing, and many rural areas basically rely on the elderly and their children to make a living. Compared with the elderly in the city, the life of the elderly in the countryside is harder and more lonely. In rural areas, older people rarely communicate with others, often staying at home alone, isolated from the outside world. Elderly people who have lived in cities for a long time find it difficult to get used to life in the countryside because they are not accustomed to high technology and inconvenient transportation. Older people who are not accompanied by their spouses will encounter health problems, they live alone at home, and after the birth of their children, they will not tell anyone when they are sick, and they will end up miserable.
A large amount of arable land is idle.
As the rural population continues to shrink and the elderly are unable to engage in agricultural production, the availability of arable land is becoming more and more prominent. Most of the villages still have arable land, but it has been abandoned due to lack of labour. With the acceleration of urbanization, the cost of agricultural production is rising, and more and more people choose to work in the city, resulting in a large amount of land and a large number of farmers lost. Especially on the hillsides, where there are some places that are not suitable for farming, there are fewer people, which leads to the sustainable development of agriculture. However, China is a world dominated by agriculture, and a large amount of idle arable land has become an important issue for China's food security and rural social development.
The three major "three rural" problems, "three rural", "three rural", and "three rural", seriously restrict the development of rural economy. Due to the lack of effective teaching resources, rural children do not enjoy a better teaching environment and do not receive more education. With the increasing prominence of the problem of rural pension in China, the loneliness and physiological hygiene of the elderly are becoming more and more prominent. The idleness of cultivated land not only restricts China's economic development, but also restricts the increase of peasant households' income, and seriously threatens China's food security. In order to truly and effectively deal with the above problems, we also need the full cooperation of social organizations and all sectors of society. In the long run, in order for rural areas to be healthy and sustainable, it is necessary to have a comprehensive rural development strategy, improve rural education resources, optimize rural aging, and promote sustainable agricultural development.
