Li Hongming: Exploring the Path for Accelerating the Rise of Traditional Agricultural Areas

For this special interview with Li Hongming, the reporter spent about no less than three times. Every time it happened, he was not on the road to a business trip, he was meeting late at night, or working overtime on vacation. As the secretary of the municipal party committee of the traditional agricultural market, his work schedule and the rhythm of the pace reflect the rapid pace of development in Suzhou. At the time when the two sessions of the country were convened, this interview with our reporter finally completed. Let us talk with Li Hongming, the representative of the National People's Congress and Party Secretary of Suzhou City, about the "things" of agricultural development.

Our reporter: Secretary Li. Hello! After following the National Agricultural Demonstration Zone, Suzhou City has now been awarded the title of the National Rural Reform Pilot Zone and has undertaken the experimental project of “Innovative Modern Agricultural Management Organization System”. Can we specifically describe the different orientations and development ideas of the two districts?

Li Hongming: Suzhou City was successively approved as two national demonstration and experimental areas. It is the only province in the country and it is rare in the country. However, in terms of target orientation, the national modern agricultural demonstration zone is based on the construction of a modern agricultural industrial system with a focus on productivity development and reform; and the national rural reform pilot zone is based on an innovative modern agricultural management organization system with a focus on the production relations. Exploration reform. Different positioning determines different development ideas.

The development thinking of the national modern agricultural demonstration zone is based on the principle of “four in one” based on the “three industries linkage, institutional innovation, multi-subject participation, and strong project support”. The main content can be summarized as “4168” project. That is, taking “four pillar industries” such as grain, animal husbandry, fruits and vegetables, and forests as the carrier, taking “a core pilot area” as the leader of the Yongqiao National Modern Agricultural Demonstration Zone, and taking “six innovations” as the innovation of the rural land management system as the focus. Hand, supported by the "eight systems" such as the agricultural science and technology innovation system, comprehensively promoted the construction of modern agriculture in Suzhou. After five years of hard work, the processing and conversion rate of agricultural products, agricultural land productivity, agricultural labor productivity, and contribution rate of agricultural science and technology have been greatly increased. The total agricultural output value, output value of agricultural product processing, and per capita net income of farmers have been doubled from 2008; Initially build a modern agricultural industry system in Suzhou to better demonstrate the leading role.

The development thinking of the National Rural Reform Pilot Area is based on reform and innovation as the driving force, and peasants increase their income as the core. Focusing on the four leading industries, the government explores and establishes mechanisms and systems that are compatible with modern agricultural construction, such as organization, management, and management. The bottleneck of modern agricultural construction will further invigorate agricultural production factors, optimize agricultural production relations, develop agricultural productivity, accelerate the transformation of agricultural development methods in our city, and promote the transformation from a big agricultural city to a strong agricultural market, from a resource-rich city to an economically strong city. change. The key work of the experiment is to cultivate three major subjects (three main market players: family farms, professional big families, cooperative organizations, and agricultural enterprises), carry out seven trials (upgrading modern agricultural service systems and other seven tests), and actively explore modern agricultural management organizations. The effective implementation of the system.

Reporter: It seems that the difference is still quite large. Then, how will Suzhou City play the "golden signboards" of these two national brands to promote the "three rural" business?

Li Hongming: Obtaining the two Chinese characters “Golden Signs” signifies that the “San Nong” work in Suzhou City will step into a larger test and development platform. In the future demonstration and reform experiments, Suzhou City will use two national demonstration zones and experimental zones as the carriers, aiming at outstanding problems existing in the internal and external development of agriculture, conduct comprehensive experiments in a targeted manner, and strive to emerge in local areas and key links. A group of typical experiences and development models that have a certain influence in northern Fujian, the whole province, and even the whole country have explored a feasible path for accelerating the rise of traditional agricultural regions. In view of the lack of the most prominent problem in the agricultural industry that is suited to the development of the modern agricultural development, it is necessary to learn from the successful experience of the reform of the state-owned economy and actively explore to speed up the cultivation of business entities with Chinese characteristics and in line with the laws of the modern market economy, with modern agricultural production subjects. The changes brought about the reform of the entire agricultural sector. Focus on trying to do a good job in three aspects: First, the development model of modern farms, I believe this is an important direction for the development of modern agriculture; Second, the agricultural company model, to develop agriculture with the concept of industrialization, with industrial production processes To complete the entire process of agricultural production, and ultimately to achieve the standardization, intensive, and standardized requirements of the agriculture; Third, the cooperative economy model, do a good job of convergence of various production factors, and form an agglomeration effect to participate in the process of socialized production Come. In view of the “four disconnects” existing between the productive forces and the production relations existing outside agriculture, the three industries involving agriculture, the various factors of agricultural production, and the agriculture-related policies, we must do everything possible to do a good job of four combinations to form one. The "4168" project, "cultivating the three main bodies," and "developing seven trials", which are currently led by modern agriculture and integrated with various factors and policies, are such a beneficial exploration. However, to solve the bottlenecks and obstacles that restrict the development of modern agriculture, relying only on reform and innovation in one area and one aspect, it is difficult to achieve results. Therefore, Suzhou City integrates two national-level parks, unifies planning and coordination, and adopts systematic and comprehensive measures. Sexual advance tests, continuous exploration of development models, rationalization of production relations, and seeking solutions to cracking. From the statistical data, from 2006 to 2010, the operating income of farmer farmers in Suzhou City accounted for the per capita net income of farmers from 52.8% to 37.1%, but in the previous year, the proportion of farmers’ income rose to 37.9%, one of them. The important reason is that modern agricultural construction has boosted the income of farmers. This is a gratifying signal, indicating that the construction of modern agriculture in our city has not only achieved initial results, but also has great potential.

Our reporter: Secretary Li. We noticed in the report made by the Anhui Provincial Government in 2012 that it was explicitly proposed that the northern part of Suzhou, including Suzhou, be included in the overall planning and development of the Central Plains Economic Zone. How will Suzhou take advantage of this major historical opportunity?

Li Hongming: Suzhou has been a category of the Central Plains since ancient times. The approval of the Central Plains Economic Zone and the strong support of the provincial party committee and the provincial government have brought major opportunities for Suzhou to leapfrog development. Suzhou City will meticulously plan, boldly implement, and accelerate its rise. The first is to seize opportunities for development in policy optimization. Efforts should be made to establish scientific policies to support the promotion system and improve the efficiency of policy linking; second is to lay a foundation for cooperation in the planning and improvement. Focus on the planning concept, industrial development, infrastructure, social development, government and non-governmental exchanges and other aspects to make a good connection; the third is to expand interconnection and interoperability in infrastructure docking. Strengthen the docking of transportation infrastructure such as railways and highways, and broaden the docking channels; Fourth, promote economic integration in business and trade exchanges. There is huge room for cooperation in the fields of agriculture and modern services, which will further amplify the field of cooperation and exchange. The fifth is to achieve resource sharing in the integration of tourism resources. Based on eco-tourism, red tourism, and cultural and folk tourism, we will actively develop substantive cooperation in tourist routes, source markets, and promotion and promotion. Sixth, it strengthens the foundation for cooperation in friendly relationships. We will further expand the party and government leadership visit and contact mechanism, encourage and support chambers of commerce, industry associations, and key enterprises to establish windows in the Central Plains Economic Zone, increase exchanges among civil society organizations, and promote friendly cooperation and exchanges through friendly human relations.

At present, the city actively utilizes the policy advantages of the coordinated development of the Central Plains Economic Zone in order to achieve a leapfrog development in accordance with the principle of sound interactive development of industries, cities, and population, and the principle of “overall undertaking, integration of production, integration, and integration”. We must work hard to break the dual urban-rural division, allow farmers to simultaneously share the dual development results of industrialization and urbanization, and actively explore new ways of “synchronizing the three directions” at the expense of agriculture, food, ecology, and the environment. Through the implementation of people-to-people linkages, the problem of the scale of construction land is effectively solved, and the link between increase and decrease is effectively solved to balance the problem of land use for construction purposes, and efforts are made to crack down on the land bottlenecks of industrialization and urbanization development. In the two-wheel drive of industrialization and urbanization, agriculture is promoted simultaneously. Modernization, construction of a modern industrial system, modern urban system, strengthening the endogenous driving force of economic development, building new advantages in regional competition, and coordinating urban and rural development.

Our reporter: This year's Central Document No. 1 locked the innovation of agricultural technology. As an agricultural city, how does Suzhou City face the transformation of its industrial structure and use agricultural science and technology innovation to promote agricultural work to a new level?

Li Hongming: Suzhou City, as one of the pilot cities in which the Ministry of Agriculture identified the entire five national demonstration projects for agricultural science and technology, has achieved certain foundations and achievements in agricultural science and technology innovation. At present, we must seize this major opportunity to put agricultural science and technology on a more important position and inject strong driving force into the structural transformation and sustainable development of the agricultural industry. The specific measures are to rely on the two major carriers of the National Modern Agricultural Demonstration Zone and the National Rural Reform Pilot Zone, focusing on the four leading industries of food, animal husbandry, fruits and vegetables, and forestry in Suzhou City, focusing on the construction of a number of characteristic scale agricultural industrial bases; Collaboration between universities, research institutes, universities, research institutes, and around two national parks, joint research and development, transformation and promotion of a number of advanced agricultural science and technology achievements and rural practical wealth-enrichment technologies to promote the transformation of traditional agriculture into modern agriculture; cooperation with Anhui Agricultural University, etc. Five one "project. That is, each industry builds an industrial technology innovation alliance, selects a chief expert, sets up an innovation team, an engineering technology research and development center, and builds a batch of production, education, research bases and model companies; at the same time, it uses the city’s agricultural radio and television school and professional technology. Relying on the college and agricultural technology promotion system, it has established 100,000 professional farmers education and training bases; actively explored the three-net “Internet of things+Internet+logistics network” model of facility-intensive agricultural business and promoted the production and consumption of agricultural and sideline products. Changes in procurement methods. By 2015, the city has completed the training of 500,000 new-type farmers, 100,000 registered professional farmers, 50,000 agricultural entrepreneurs, and 5,000 peasant cooperatives.
