It Is Hard to Sustain the Continuous Increase of Domestic Grain Procurement Prices, and the Processing Industry Is Barely Alive
The agricultural products market is now very bad. Cargill, the world's largest grain trader, has been reported to be laying off workers.

Large-scale farming profits rely entirely on subsidies and rewards, with hidden traps
Does large-scale agriculture necessarily bring economies of scale? In many people's understanding, this is hardly even a question, but the facts are not so. While too small a planting scale certainly makes it hard to earn much profit, too large a planting scale may also yield false profits. So-called false profits

The city already owes the countryside too much; the urban-rural gap urgently needs to be faced squarely
People condemn the parents, hoping to hold them accountable for failing to fulfil their responsibilities; people say that companionship is love, and that companionship matters more than earning money.
