Revitalizing idle rural houses and not forcing farmers to rush into homestays

2023-10-24

Recently, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of Hubei Province and seven other departments jointly issued a notice on further improving the revitalization and utilization of idle homesteads and idle rural houses, encouraging and guiding villagers and village level organizations to return to their hometowns, and business entities such as citizens, college students, capable individuals, and entrepreneurs to enter the villages, in accordance with the law, regulations, and local conditions to awaken "sleeping" resources. Rural homestead and residential land are the basic means of livelihood and important property of farmers, as well as important resources for rural development. With the acceleration of urbanization in China, the number of agricultural migrant workers and migrant workers continues to increase, and a large number of agricultural houses have been idle for a long time. Revitalizing and utilizing idle rural housing resources and attracting more entities to engage in rural innovation and entrepreneurship can not only gather popularity and add vitality to rural areas, but also open up new paths and inject momentum into rural development. In the context of rural revitalization, to revitalize idle rural houses and turn "sleeping" assets into "active" assets, it is not only necessary to accelerate the exploration of the "three rights separation" system reform of rural homesteads at the institutional level, but also to seek solutions from key industries in rural revitalization. Only prosperous industries can activate idle resources. Undoubtedly, various explorations to revitalize idle resources must adhere to the policy and institutional bottom lines. The nature of collective ownership of rural land cannot be changed, the red line of arable land cannot be broken, and the interests of farmers cannot be damaged. Activating and utilizing idle rural houses is an emerging thing and a systematic project. To eliminate the worries of farmers and social investors, policy guarantees and market-oriented promotion are indispensable. Government departments should not only provide hardware services to improve rural infrastructure and create a livable environment in rural areas, but also strengthen software services by establishing a fair competition market mechanism, improving the flow mechanism of urban-rural factors, building a rural "double innovation" talent mechanism, and innovating the mortgage loan mechanism for rural housing use rights. At the same time, we will accelerate the improvement of the top-level design of the system for the allocation, withdrawal, inheritance, and market entry of homestead land behind idle rural houses. To revitalize idle rural houses, it is necessary to fully respect the wishes of farmers. The ways to revitalize the operation of idle homesteads and idle residences, the choice of industries, the exit methods and compensation standards of idle homesteads, etc., should be left to the democratic decision-making of villagers. The government can provide guidance, but cannot make decisions on behalf of farmers, and cannot force farmers to "go upstairs". We should give full play to the main role and pioneering spirit of farmers, and fully mobilize their enthusiasm, initiative, and creativity. To revitalize idle rural houses, we should not only focus on individual houses, but also find breakthroughs in enhancing the attractiveness of the entire countryside. We cannot rush to build homestays regardless of whether the conditions are met. Idle rural houses are scattered in the vast countryside, and there are various ways to revitalize them. The key is to find the right way for oneself, start from the actual situation, and have an overall planning concept. Rural houses are an important component of nostalgic memories, and how to maintain the rural style and appearance, preserve the nostalgia, and protect the ecological environment are all issues that need to be taken into consideration at all times.
