The professionalization of farmers needs to break the institutional constraints, liberalize policies and household registration restrictions.

[ China Agricultural Machinery Industry News ] This year, the central government invested 1.5 billion yuan to cultivate more than 1 million new professional farmers. The "13th Five-Year Plan for the Cultivation of New Type of Professional Peasants" proposes that by 2020, the number of new professional peasants in China will reach 20 million, of which high school and above will account for more than 35%. Minister of Agriculture Han Changfu said that in the past, farmers were identities. If parents were farmers and hukou were farmers, you were farmers.

The professionalization of farmers needs to break the institutional constraints, liberalize policies and household registration restrictions.

With the rapid advancement of China's industrialization and urbanization, more and more farmers have chosen to work in cities, and the phenomenon of “hollowing” in rural areas is widespread. The traditional small-scale peasant economic model is out of date. It needs to adopt large-scale operation, refined management, and scientific planting and breeding mode. The comprehensive quality of farmers is more demanding. New-type professional farmers who love agriculture, understand technology and operate well are becoming modern agricultural construction. Pilot power.

Since China's reform and opening up, all walks of life have made great progress, and some industries have leapt to the forefront of the world and become a field with global market competitiveness. However, the pace of reform in the agricultural sector is relatively slow, and the global market is less competitive. It can be seen that it is necessary to improve the agricultural technology content of China, increase capital investment, and invest in science and technology, so that farmers are no longer synonymous with identity, but a professional concept, attracting talented people to enter and changing the backwardness of agriculture.

At present, the agricultural employment population is dominated by the elderly and women, and the loss of young people is more serious, making it difficult to grasp and understand new technologies. The liberalization of policies and household registration restrictions, breaking the shackles of the identity system, allowing private capital and urban population to freely enter agriculture, realizing the optimal combination of agricultural resources, activating the vitality of agricultural development, and allowing practitioners to have a sense of professionalism will truly realize the professionalization of farmers.
