As an old farmer born and bred in the countryside, tell the truth about the actual life of farmers in the countryside today:
Compared with the past difficult times, the living and living conditions of farmers have undergone earth-shaking changes.
In the sixties and seventies, due to the low agricultural production technology, the low grain yield, and the national preparedness for war and famine, the majority of farmers lived a poor life without enough food and clothing, often suffering from hunger and cold,
Now, farmers not only eat and wear less, but also eat well and wear new clothes. They are on the way to a well-off life
In the past, most of the farmers lived in shabby thatched houses and adobe houses, which were simple and humid, and all the size of the family were crowded into one room,
Now, rows of brick and tile houses and two or three floors of buildings are also very common in rural areas, and the cement roads are no worse than those in cities. Most farmers live in spacious and bright brick and tile houses, and adults and children have their own houses. The phenomenon of one family living in one place has become history, and the difference in living conditions between urban and rural areas is on the way to narrow
In the sixties and seventies, farmers can be said to have no economic income. They are busy in the fields all day and have no opportunity to go out to earn money. It seems that it is not important whether they have money or not. As long as they have food at home and do not worry about hunger, they are rich.
However, the current farmer's family has no one thousand twenty eight hundred yuan (dialect). It is difficult to walk without money a day. It is impossible to make a living by farming alone. In addition to taking care of the two acres of land in the family, every household has to do business, go out to work, earn some hard-earned money to pay for all kinds of expenses in the family. Making money has become the main economic income of the current farmer. Young people have to go out to earn money. Most of the farmers at home are old, weak, sick and disabled
Although the farmers in the past had poor living conditions and often lacked food and food, the economic burden was relatively small. There was almost no investment in farming, no fertilizer, and all of the manure was used. The children could not spend a few yuan to go to school, not to mention the cost of marriage. The old people often said that "a load of dried vegetables can be exchanged for a handsome wife".
Now, the living conditions of farmers are high, not only do they not worry about food and clothing, but also there are large fish and meat on the table of farmers. However, the economic burden of every household is also increasing step by step. The investment of agricultural materials and fertilizers, the cost of children's school, the wedding gift, supporting the elderly... a series of countless costs are invisible pressure on the current farmers. Although the living conditions are better than before, they are still not happy.
In summary, compared with the past, the living standards and living conditions of farmers have changed dramatically. I believe that in the near future, as the country increases its support for various preferential policies in rural areas, the current economic burden of farmers will gradually reduce and their lives will become better and better!
