If you ask the farmers now: If there are other things to do, would you still farm?

The answer is basically the same: definitely not farming!

Why are you unwilling to farm land as a farmer? Four major reasons, all of them are heartbroken!

Low grain hurts farmers

This is the most fundamental reason. In recent years, the global economic environment is not good and food prices have fallen sharply. China is facing internal and external troubles and has to adjust food prices in accordance with the international market. This also means that domestic food prices have fallen. Now domestic farmers' income from farming basically depends on selling grain. As soon as the price of grain falls, farmers' income will also decline. When the income from farming can't support the family, we farmers will give up the profession of farming.

Working part-time earns more than farming

This is a very obvious phenomenon. In some places, it’s not as good as going out to work for a month to make more money. Then we must go wherever we have more money, and we are farmers, and working is our main business. Farming has become a sideline. Naturally, you will not be interested in farming. If you can fool it, you will be fooled. If the farming technology is not improved, the income will be reduced.

I personally think that this is a price comparison error. Just like the corn reform, the benefits of corn, soybeans, and rice should be similar, so that a certain variety will not increase wildly. The choice between farming and working is also the same. The income from part-time work and the income from farming are similar, so I think there are still many farmers who are willing to farm.

Farming costs have been rising

As food prices fall and costs follow, farmers’ income can also be guaranteed. However, farmers in our country are now facing a downward pressure on the ceiling of grain prices, rising costs for farming, and double squeezing. The cost of agricultural materials, labor, etc. The annual increase has further depressed farmers' income and made farmers feel hopeless in farming.

Subsidies are just a drop in the bucket

Due to the large agricultural population in China, subsidies cannot be used to make the lives of farmers better. The state has not stepped up its efforts, but for hundreds of millions of farmers, it is still too small, and the implementation of subsidies is also helpless. Corruption in links occurs from time to time. What you deserve is not earned, and you don’t deserve a lot of money. The state spends a lot of money on subsidies, but some don’t use the knife.

It's not that we don't want to plant the land, the land can't be planted anymore!
