    After the elderly in rural areas reach the age of 60, the state has a certain amount of subsidies, why are these old people still farming?

    Because many very old people can't be idle, they have been farmers all their lives, and when they are too bored at home, they will also go to the fields to help their sons and daughters farm.

    Some may be poor and need to farm, while others are just old people who can't sit still, so they want to farm some land.

    Because they don't have any other economy than farming, and the land in the countryside is wasted when it's idle, they have to farm.

    Because they have planted the land all their lives, they cannot be idle. They are a generation that has a plot for the land. Even if there is no shortage of food and clothing now, when I see a vacant land, I want to grow some vegetables and eat them myself.

    On the other hand, their ancestors have been like this for generations, they have no concept of buying vegetables, their vegetables are all grown by themselves, and they feel that the vegetables they grow are comfortable to eat.

    It may be that the older generation is accustomed to farming as a kind of fun, or it may be because life is compelling.

    Because these old people have no other skills, they can only farm, and in order to be able to take root in the village and give the young people a guarantee, they will choose to farm.

    I don't think the old man has anything to do with his children。Many old people have been farming all their lives, and when they are old and their children grow up, there are still many people who are farming at the age when they should be enjoying Qingfu. I think this kind of old man is looking for a kind of spiritual sustenanceFarming is their life, and they have worked hard for this all their lives, and they don't know where to go without farming.

    My family is from a farmer's background, my grandparents have farmed the land all their lives, and now they are almost 70 years old, and they are still farming, but they don't plant as much as before。My father, uncle and aunt all advised them not to farm, and when they were old, it was time to rest and enjoy life, but my grandparents never listened, and they never stopped farming, and the family could not do anything about them. In fact, in our hometown, there are many elderly people like grandparents, and they have also farmed all their lives, and they are old but have nothing to do, so farming is still their choice.

    Later, my grandfather told me that they were not only farming for that little bit of food, but also for the relief of loneliness。People are old, but the children are struggling in the field, only go home during the New Year's holidays, usually pick them up to live, they don't want to leave home, maybe this is the psychology of falling leaves and returning to the roots, the older people are, the more they don't want to leave the land that raised them. They don't have to worry about eating and drinking at home, but it is a very boring day, farming can bring them happiness, and the nature of farmers makes them have some instinctive love for food.

    So what's the point,We need to spend more time with our parents, no matter how old we are, we are their most concerningDon't wait until "the son wants to raise but the parent doesn't wait", parents need us to accompany us more. The old man also wants to leave a root for the children, and the children are wandering outside, but there is always a place for the children.

    Now mechanization is basically achieved, even in the countryside there is no mechanization and semi-mechanization, so people's needs are greatly reduced compared to before.

    Farming is not profitable. Farming is hard work, mainly because it doesn't make money. Today's pesticides, fertilizers, and seeds are very expensive, and food ** is very low.

    After the cost of planting an acre of land, there is nothing. Many mountainous areas are not suitable for large-scale mechanized farming. Although large-scale mechanized farming can be carried out in the plains, there is not much left after the costs of pesticides, fertilizers, seeds, water irrigation, machinery waste, and mechanical oil burning.

    Agricultural incomes are not guaranteed. Today, while farmers have advanced science and technology to increase food production, they still rely on the sky for food. In the event of a severe drought or a major flood, almost nothing is harvested.

    Year. People's choice is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Because farming does not maximize profits, young people choose to work in big cities.

    All kinds of consumption. Now it's a market economy. Today, with the rapid development of social economy, all kinds of materials are abundant, and people's consumption is very large.

    Without an economic base, it is difficult to make ends meet. The distribution of social resources is uneven, and the gap between urban and rural areas is getting wider and wider. Cultural, educational, teaching, medical and other resources are concentrated in the city.

    Pensions are a big issue. Contemporary pensions issued by the Social Security Institute require the purchase of social insurance. You can only be guaranteed if you are old.

    After retirement, the old people in the city can travel around and enjoy their old age in peace. Rural people still have to farm when they are old. Times are different.

    In the past, there were basically no enterprises in the country, there was no urbanization, and there was no need for so many employees and workers, but now these are all available. And most importantly, now that technology is advanced, we don't need so many people to farm. Although our agriculture is not as developed as in the United States, the yield of planting can be increased by using existing machinery and equipment to plant hybrid rice and other varieties.

    There has been a lot of improvement, and feeding everyone is still not a big problem.

    The reality in rural areas now is that the elderly take their children to farm at home, and the young people basically go out to work.

  22. Anonymous users2024-01-22

    It's because young people nowadays are more ambitious, and they feel that they can earn more if they go out to work, so they don't want to farm.

  23. Anonymous users2024-01-21

    I think it's mainly because there are so many jobs now, and most of the young people are going out.

    There are many elderly people who have long vegetables and fruits in front of the house and behind the house, and there are many elderly people who raise some chickens, ducks and geese, and there are very few who really work in the field. Most of the children of this kind of elderly people go out to work to earn money, and most of them have transferred the contracted land to large farming families, and they can get a working fund and a grain subsidy without helping. However, there are also some elderly people who are reluctant to work for others, thinking that they can still move, and now they don't have to work too hard to farm.

    At that time, spending some money to hire someone to help with the work, planting some food crops will not only make you self-reliant, but also allow your children to eat peace of mind without spending money, so they will keep the land. Nowadays, the countryside is accompanied by the party and the first three rural policies in a timely manner. From the village environment renovation to the hardening of the road surface, the scenery is really beautiful, the natural environment is pleasant, the survival atmosphere is like a dreamy fairyland, and the health is endangered in many ways.

    Agricultural mechanization has greatly relieved the pressure, so farmers in their seventies are critical to the burden of cultivating the fields and taking care of their grandchildren. There is no pension pension for the elderly, they can't be like the old people in the city, they are lazy to make tea and light meals, three meals a day, the only prayer is that God gives a good heart and body, it is already very luxurious, because they are the most engaged in carrying Chang, they know that they want to be happy, the sky is not easy to drop pies, and they are very content to be able to give a smooth and smooth time. The elderly over the age of 70 in rural areas basically have no pension, and the living allowance of 100 yuan per month in China is far from enough.

    The daily life of the children is not rich, and the old people insist on farming in order not to make trouble for their children, no matter how old they are, not because they are unwilling to take a break, but because they are forced to live, because they will put pressure on their children and grandchildren after retirement! Planting organic fertilizer seeds, pesticides have increased, and the price of machine farming has also risen, and the price of farming has also risen, and it is an account from the farming, just smooth and smooth, the five grains are abundant, the cost of the noon season is collected, and the autumn harvest is more than the profit, one mu can earn 800 yuan a year, if it is affected by natural disasters, which income will be reduced,

    We should increase investment in agriculture, rural areas, and rural areas, increase peasant incomes, implement the strategy of rural revitalization, narrow the gap between urban and rural areas, unswervingly follow the road of socialist collectivization like Dazhai and Nanjie villages, and build the rural areas into new socialist modern rural areas.

    If you want to make the countryside prosperous again, then only Nanjie Village of "Agricultural Dazhai" is the best example of learning Dazhai.

    Conclusion: Only the socialist social system of [public ownership] can save China!

    It's not that there are too many old people to farm: it's that the price of grain is low, the subsidies are small, the agricultural resources are soaring, and farming can't feed a family

    The only way for the countryside to prosper again was to go through collectivization.

    Think about the beginning, the military reclamation of Xinjiang, and the development of the Great Northern Wilderness Production Corps. Without ******'s wise decision-making, can it become the breadbasket of our country? Practice has proven that the power of the collective is endless!

    This problem is very big and difficult, and the simplest and most direct way to make the rural areas prosperous again is that the peasants can only have wages, rich benefits, and guarantees for farming, just like factories and enterprises, and this can be said to be impossible. We all know that there are no factories and enterprises in the rural areas, and it is also unrealistic for peasants to get rich by planting one acre or a few cents of land; the output of crops (whether wheat, rice, corn, or others) is limited, the investment cycle is long and the results are slow, and the income from hard work for a year is very small, and it is also very difficult to obtain benefits from agriculture. Young rural peasants can go out to work, and would rather buy a house in the city than go back to the countryside, and the rest are old, weak, sick and disabled who have no choice but to live in the countryside, and live a miserable life with their faces facing the yellow land and their backs to the sky.

    If there are young people in the countryside now, it will become abnormal.

    Now there are people planting barren mountains, no one planting wasteland, Guangxi is like this, barren mountains and mountains are contracted to plant animal eucalyptus, and there are also fruit trees, that is, no one cultivates the fields. As long as you work in your hometown, it's better than going out, and if there are more people in the village, is it far from prosperity?

    Narrow the gap between urban and rural areas, so that rural people are the same as the old people in the city, the old have fun and enjoy pension treatment, especially as soon as possible before the old people enjoy retirement treatment as soon as possible, so that the future generations of farmers can see hope, see that the old people did not pay in vain, did not let them down, rural land is planted, in 2021 is not experts and scholars calling on retired workers in the city to revitalize the countryside? How can you say that without us peasants, the earth will be circled, and the people of the country say yes or no.

    It is necessary to take the road of collectivization according to the principle of the first class. The village secretary is the manager, the farmer is the employee, and the public funds are issued.

    There is no possibility of re-prosperity in the countryside, only the reality of accelerated decline.

    There are two reasons, on the one hand, because these elderly people are lonely old people, and on the other hand, their children are not at home. The second aspect is that you can't be idle at all, that is, you have done a lifetime of work, and it is uncomfortable to be idle suddenly.

    It must be that the family is not particularly wealthy, so that an old man is still farming and working at the age of 92. For the sake of the children.

    There are two main aspects to this, the first is that there are many young laborers, they go outside, and there is no one to cultivate the land in the countryside, so the old people who stay in the countryside will naturally go to the field to take on a certain amount of work. The second is because of the traditional concept, because now the land in the countryside can be contracted out, but these old people are used to working all their lives, so they are suddenly idle, and they are not very adaptable, so they are still willing to go to the field to cultivate independently. <>

    The elderly work in the fields, on the one hand, for their own lives, and do not want to cause trouble to their children, and on the other hand, because of their living habits, so we must analyze this phenomenon rationally. After all, there are many reasons for this, and it cannot be attributed to one side. <>

    But I believe that this situation will gradually improve, because now the country is advocating the construction of beautiful villages, and many young people have slowly begun to return to the countryside, so in the future, we can also see more young people in the countryside. It is not a good thing if the elderly are willing to work in rural areas, first, because they can exercise, and second, they can also pass on their experience to young people. <>

    The improvement of many mechanical levels in rural areas does not mean that the elderly can receive liquids, but they still enjoy the fruits of their labor in the fields. Just like many rich people, they will choose to plant some melons and fruits in their own yards, and we can also see these old people enjoying life.

    Another aspect is the level of mechanization, it has a process of acceptance, the level of mechanization may be more acceptable to young people, but the elderly will be a little bit trusting of these things, so they are still willing to believe in their ability to work. If you want a reason, will it be because the old people are unwilling to spend money? Because they were accustomed to frugality, it was necessary to hire some machinery for farming, which required an expense, so they preferred to go down to the field and work themselves.
