Since ancient times, Chinese peasants have been children of the land, their figures ploughing in the fields, and rice growing in their sweat. However, with the change of the times, a thought-provoking phenomenon has quietly emerged - "Since when did farmers no longer store their own grain, but need to go to the street to buy grain?" Agronomist Wen Tiejun gave his observations on this question.
I remember the old saying, "The five grains are abundant, and the warehouse knows the etiquette." "But now, it seems like a distant memory. Wen Tiejun once said: "In the past, farmers farmed to be self-sufficient, but now, the market has become a key factor in determining the weight of the grain bags in their hands. "It's like a ruler that measures the close connection between agriculture and the market, and also reveals the subtle changes in the role of farmers.
Farmers are no longer the representatives of "feeding their families with their own fields", they are beginning to become consumers of the market, just like city dwellers. Behind this transformation is the improvement of agricultural production efficiency brought about by scientific and technological progress, and the impact of accelerated urbanization on the structure of the rural economy. However, this is not entirely bad, as it promotes urban-rural exchanges, but it also brings new challenges.
"Farmers are no longer 'granaries', but have become 'grain merchants'." Wen Tiejun's words speak to the new role of the peasant. Not only do they have to grow good food, but they also have to learn how to play in the market, which is undoubtedly a new learning journey for many traditional farmers. Just like the old saying, "everything in the world is knowledge", today's farmers also need to crawl in the sea of the market and learn the way of management.
But Wen Tiejun did not ignore the other side of the problem. "We must not forget that farmers are still the foundation of the food chain, and their stability is related to the national economy and people's livelihood." This sentence is like a wake-up call, reminding us not to forget the hard work and needs of farmers while pursuing efficiency and market.
This is not only the story of farmers, but also the story of our society. What we see is the modernization of food production, the pace of urbanization, and the throes of rural transformation. Every like, retweet and comment is a concern for this topic, a recognition of the hard work of farmers, and an expectation for the future of agriculture.
Together, let us look at this change with a warmer eye, understand the difficulties of farmers, and praise them. Because, no matter how the times change, farmers are always the cornerstone of our society, and their smiles and hopes are the most precious wealth of our country.
Wen Tiejun's question may lead us to think more deeply: when enjoying the joy of the harvest, do we still remember those farmers who paid silently? Can we applaud their hard work as they taste the food they have to offer? Together, let us fill farmers' grain bags with real respect and care.
