Guanghan City, Deyang City, Sichuan Province is one of the birthplaces of rural reform in China.
On the road of continuous exploration of reform and development, modern agriculture here is in the ascendant, and modern industries are constantly falling behind, keeping forging ahead.
And look at today’s comprehensive well-off Guanghan experimental field, which branches are competing to spit?
— — Liberate yourself from the ridge of the field
"In a word, hungry!" Ye Changli, a 71-year-old man from Liangshuijing Community, Jinyu Town, Guanghan City, said. More than 40 years ago, when he was a commune accountant, he shook his head when talking about the absolute egalitarianism of "big pot rice". If you don’t work hard, you will be hungry! "
At that time, farmers had no autonomy, so they had to listen to the instructions from above, missed the farming season and reduced production continuously. Guanghan has been a granary of Tianfu since ancient times, but local farmers are sallow and emaciated with hunger.
"Poverty is not socialism. At that time, the village party branch was under great pressure and called the members to grab the fields that the contracting commune ignored." Ye Changli recalled.
The ridge is about one meter wide and can grow some crops. Ye Changli caught four ridges and planted soybeans and peppers. For fear of being labeled as "capitalist tail", he worked in the dark early in the morning and was afraid to speak when he met acquaintances.
Beans were abundant, and he pushed tofu for the baby behind closed doors for the first time. Son Ye Wanjian licked the bowl and said, "It would be great to eat tofu every day!"
In October 1976, the Party Central Committee smashed the Gang of Four in one fell swoop. When the news came, people were jubilant, and grass-roots party committees were emboldened to lead the masses to reform together.
In 1977, the second squad of the fifth brigade of Guanghan Xigao Commune was divided into three operation groups, with joint production contracting and responsibility assigned to each group. As soon as the system was changed, the harvest soared from 220 thousand Jin to 430 thousand Jin. In 1978, Guanghan County Committee started a pilot project of production responsibility system in Goldfish Commune, which increased rice production by 5.2 million Jin!
In 1980, Guanghan was the first to take off the brand of People’s Commune.

— — Upgrade the connection between farmers and land.
From land contracting to the rise of township enterprises, and then to the withdrawal of counties to set up cities and build development zones, Guanghan has been continuously reforming and developing for 40 years, especially farmers have experienced "land concentration, decentralization and re-concentration" and insisted on seeking truth from facts and keeping pace with the times.
Ye Changli, an old man, said that the "tide of working" that arose after the reform and opening up has driven farmers to work to earn money. His son Ye Wanjian is one of them. He works in the decoration industry in Chengdu and Deyang, earning four or five thousand yuan a month.
The income of migrant workers greatly exceeds that of farming, and some farmland has no race. Ye Changli is worried that "what does no one eat when farming?"
This is also the concern of party branches in various villages. In the Spring Festival of 2012, the Party branch of Shangyu Village in Jinyu Town invited Wu Daihua, a talented person who returned to his hometown, to be virtuous: "Don’t go, let’s transfer the land and do it!"
This year, Wu Daihua, who traveled all over the world and was well informed, was 50 years old. "Let’s try to transfer 120 mu of land first," he thought. The local government subsidized seed fertilizer to large grain growers, and he made a net profit of 100 thousand yuan when he settled accounts at the harvest that year!
"I earn a lot of money, and contractors earn a little money with 800 yuan transfer fee per mu, and the land is not abandoned. It’s really happy! So I expanded my scale year by year. " Wu Daihua said, "Now it’s all a phone call. The whole agricultural chain, such as seedling raising, water release, transplanting, management, harvesting, drying, warehousing and sales, has achieved door-to-door service, and agricultural insurance and protective price acquisition are at the bottom. Which farmer is not happy?"
When the land is concentrated, the small field becomes a big field. With Jinyu Town as the core, radiation has driven more than 100,000 mu of high-yield farmland around.
"It’s not unusual for drones to do farm work!" Wang Yi, secretary of the Party Committee of Jinyu Town, proudly said, "The connection between farmers and land has been upgraded. Ownership, contracting rights and management rights are separated. Machines work in the fields, and people pay dividends according to their shares, without delaying their work. The existing farmers’ deposits in our town are 1.55 billion yuan, and only 50 million yuan has been added in the first three months of this year! "
As a pilot county for the reform of rural collective property rights system in China, Guanghan completed the asset verification of 179 villages and 2,342 village groups in 2018, and 42 village groups completed the quantification of shares and issued 7,023 share certificates.
Courtyard coffee, homestay, country hot pot and other formats relying on rural assets are booming, people are famous, the scenery changes with the pace, villages are scattered in fields, small courtyards, bamboo forests and flowing water are everywhere … … Nowadays, in Guanghan, the demonstration of farming culture in the new era is taking shape.

In recent years, the CPC Central Committee has made major decisions such as the comprehensive innovation and reform pilot zone and the twin-city economic circle in Chengdu-Chongqing area. Guanghan stands in the heart of Sichuan’s "Deyang Mianyang" plain area and shoulders heavy responsibilities.

Walking into the Civil Aviation Flight Academy of China in Guanghan, lean guys are training on the roller. "We are moving from an aviation power to an aviation power, and we must expand high-end formats such as low-altitude navigation, aviation meteorology and aviation maintenance!" Yang Degui, director of the Propaganda Department of the Civil Aviation Flight Academy of China, said that the aviation industry, as the frontier of opening up, has made preparations for related disciplines … …
Dongfeng has a letter, and the spring tide has arrived. The reform vitality of respecting the reality and following the law has been working for a long time in Guanghan, and it is constantly arousing people’s hard work and pursuing happiness.
