From Farmhouse "Square Inches of Land" to "Treasure Bowl" for Getting Rich: Observations on the Development of Courtyard Economy in Poverty Alleviation Areas

2023-05-11

This year, the No. 1 central document was written into the "courtyard economy" for the first time, clearly proposing "encouraging qualified farmers in poverty alleviation areas to develop courtyard economy". A small courtyard in a farmer's house can achieve great success. At present, the scale of courtyard economy industry in poverty-stricken areas is constantly expanding, the types of industries are becoming increasingly diverse, and the connection between production and sales is becoming smoother, presenting a dynamic new landscape of innovation and income increase. The reporter found in interviews in Shandong, Ningxia, Yunnan and other places that many areas are actively developing courtyard economy, injecting impetus into rural revitalization in poverty-stricken areas: farmers use this to activate idle resources such as family courtyards, flexible employment, and increase income; Developing colorful courtyards in villages, adding green and cultural flavors; From this, local areas gather and cultivate characteristic industries to create new growth points for county-level economy. Utilizing idle resources can increase income. "Previously, this was an idle old house. Since planting mushrooms, the courtyard has been clean and tidy, and income has also increased." Li Kuilin, a villager from Youzhuang United Village, Laozhao Zhuang Town, Linqing City, Shandong Province, is picking thick and fresh mushrooms from his mushroom shed. These mushrooms not only meet the daily needs of their own people, but the rest are sold nearby. With just half an acre of land, a "mini shed" for mushroom cultivation can be built, transforming the originally ordinary "farmyard" into a "income increasing garden" for villagers. Since the beginning of this year, Linqing City has combined the development of courtyard economy with rural revitalization work based on the actual situation of local idle courtyards and labor force. The local government integrates idle land resources in rural areas, relies on the unique industrial advantages of local mushroom cultivation, takes families as the battlefield and courtyards as carriers, builds mushroom cultivation greenhouses and is equipped with photovoltaic power generation boards to promote the improvement of courtyard economy and efficiency. At the home of Mintian Lin in Xinsheng Village, Xinglong Township, Tongxin County, Wuzhong City, Ningxia, the apricot trees in the courtyard recently produced green fruits. Unlike ordinary apricots, these apricots can naturally dry in the shade on the tree after maturity, commonly known as hanging dried apricots. In years with stable prices, hanging dried apricot fruits can sell for over 50 yuan per kilogram. Now nearly half of these trees are in their full fruiting period, generating over 40000 yuan in net income per acre per year, "Tian Lin said with a smile, pointing to his own apricot tree. With the successful experience of Tian Lin, the "Two Committees" of Xinsheng Village have taken the development of courtyard economy as one of the means to assist agriculture and increase income. Since last year, Xinsheng Village has collectively invested in planting over 20000 hanging dried apricot trees in front of, behind, and by the roadside. These trees are usually managed and protected by more than 400 impoverished and low-income households in the village, and the profits generated in the future will also belong to the caretakers. The compact courtyard economy has significant potential to help farmers increase their income. In the future, the achievements of our village in consolidating and expanding poverty alleviation will be reflected in the development effect of the courtyard economy, "said Gu Siliang, Secretary of the Xinsheng Village Party Branch. The relevant ministries and commissions have issued clear policies, starting from reality, highlighting local characteristics, taking the path of distinctive and differentiated development, exploring the development of various types of courtyard economy by planting, nurturing, adding, and business. At present, multiple regions have launched courtyard economic construction plans tailored to local conditions. Some places develop characteristic planting and breeding industries, creating a batch of micro tea gardens, micro vegetable gardens, micro fruit gardens, and micro mushroom gardens to meet urban consumption nearby; Some places develop characteristic handicrafts, establish small processing factories in courtyards, develop intangible cultural heritage workshops, family factories, and handicrafts
