How can we vigorously develop moderate-scale operations in various forms?
The Fifth Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China proposed accelerating the transformation of the agricultural development model, developing moderate-scale operations in various forms, and giving play to their leading role in modern agricultural development. This is a major strategic deployment by the central leadership to comply with the new requirements of our country's social production development, grasp the new trends in the changes of agricultural production relations, and respond to the new challenges of international modern agricultural development. It is also an inevitable requirement for adapting to our country's diverse resource conditions, the constantly changing rural labor force structure and agricultural production and operation methods, and promoting the development of agricultural modernization. By developing moderate-scale operations in various forms, we can promote the division and specialization of agriculture, raise labor productivity, land output rate and resource utilization rate, make up for agriculture's shortcoming in the synchronized development of the four modernizations, and continuously enhance the global competitiveness of our country's agriculture.

Three rural reforms must break out of three major misconceptions, including the household registration system reform
I. On the household registration system reform. I feel that the household registration reform over the past 30 years has been going around in circles. Why was the household registration system not reformed well in the past? If viewed from the planned system before the reform, there was no problem with the household registration system at all. The urban-rural dual household registration system was completely reasonable, because it served the planned economy. Now reforming the household registration system is right, because what we are running now is not a planned economy, not unified purchasing and marketing, not a rationing system. In the new system, the problem with the household registration system is unequal national treatment, discrimination against farmers, and obstruction of free movement. In the past, farmers compared with farmers were equal, and urban people compared with each other were also equal, and the urban-rural gap was not very large, so people at that time had a high patriotic sentiment. For example, I lived in Beijing for more than ten years, and it did not give me the same treatment as Beijing residents, so I could not feel the dignity of being Chinese. Many farmers who go to Beijing to work all face this problem, so the household registration system is a very big problem. The household registration system itself is not the problem; the problem is the welfare differences and treatment discrimination behind the household registration system.
