Who will farm the land tomorrow?

The aging of the rural labor force is becoming more and more serious, and for those hilly areas where the land is fragmented and mechanized farming is difficult, the shortage of effective labor is especially acute.

In response to this need, in the process of training new-type professional farmers in various places, a new phenomenon called the "farm service supermarket" has emerged, and it has been widely praised by farmers. Let's take a look together.

What does the farm service supermarket "sell"?

What the farm service supermarket provides to local farmers isplowing on behalf, planting on behalf, management on behalf, harvesting on behalf, purchasing on behalf, and selling on behalfand other services.

From turning the soil, sowing, raising seedlings to harvesting, farmers do not need to go into the fields, and they do not need to worry about farming. The only effort required is to stand at the edge of the field during harvest season and hold out a basket to catch the rice.

Current profit situation

Farm service supermarket:

Since 2013, when Sichuan's first farm service supermarket, the Sichuan Chicheng Sannong Farm Service Supermarket, was established, after two years of exploration, the number of farm service supermarkets has now increased to 4, and the service area has reached 100,000 mu, through the business model of "supermarket + agricultural machinery specialized cooperative + large households (large grain-growing households, large agricultural machinery households) + farmers"

Farmers:

Because of the professional team, unnecessary waste and expenses are reduced, and farmers can instead save a large amount of money on costs.

One-stop supermarket service

During busy farming seasons, it is responsible for cultivation, management and harvesting; during slack farming seasons, it helps deal with broken machines; and even after a bumper grain harvest, it carries out large-scale mechanized drying.

This one-stop service is the latest exploration of the farm service supermarket and has demonstrative significance.

Promotion still requires effort

At present, rural areas still hold a wait-and-see attitude toward the business of farm service supermarkets, and they need more tangible benefits and profit incentives.

In other words, despite strong national support and guaranteed profits, farm service supermarkets still need to expand their range of services, improve service quality, and require more mobilization and publicity.

Farm service supermarkets carry both challenges and honors, and it is hoped that more and more people will pay attention, innovate and practice.
