"Tens of millions of projects", attach importance to unprecedented!

The meeting discussed the Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and The State Council on learning and applying the experience of the "Thousand Villages Demonstration and ten thousand Villages Renovation" project to Effectively Promote the comprehensive revitalization of Rural areas (discussion draft).

This shows that the learning and application of "tens of millions of projects" has been raised to an unprecedented height. In 2024, a lot of work will be carried out around the "ten million project", and many policies will be put in place successively to promote the "ten million project" to achieve greater results.

The meeting stressed that it is necessary to learn and use the development concept, working methods and promotion mechanism contained in the "ten million project", start from the practical problems strongly reflected by the peasant masses, find the starting point for rural revitalization, and improve the effectiveness of work.

"Project Ten Million" has been deployed since 2003. This exploration, which originated from the rural environmental change in Zhejiang, catalyzed the ecological change, industrial change and social change, and became the "experimental field" of rural revitalization and the "starting type" of the Chinese dream.

"The target direction of Zhejiang's 'ten million project' is inherently consistent with the overall requirements of rural revitalization, and Zhejiang's leading advantage in rural revitalization is precisely due to the first planning and implementation of 'ten million project'." Zhejiang A & F University Zhejiang Rural Revitalization Institute executive dean Pan Weiguang believes.

The Central Finance Office and other departments issued the Guiding Opinions on the Effective and Orderly Promotion of Zhejiang's "Ten million Project" experience in July this year. All localities have actively studied and achieved tangible results that the masses can feel.

"The 'ten million project' is characterized by small cuts and large results, and should be promoted with greater efforts." Li Guoxiang, a researcher at the Rural Development Institute of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, said the promotion effort and effectiveness will be even greater next year.

Li Guoxiang said that the incision of Zhejiang's "tens of millions of projects" is to change the dirty and bad conditions of the rural environment, and change the appearance of the village by promoting the optimization of village layout, road hardening, greening around the four sides, street lighting, river purification, and environmental beautification. The results are the "leading project" of coordinating urban and rural areas, the "basic project" of all-round well-off society, the "ecological project" of beautiful environment, and the "popular project" of benefiting farmers.

In the era of comprehensive revitalization, how to learn and use "tens of millions of projects"?

In the era of comprehensive revitalization, how to learn and apply the concept, method and mechanism of "tens of millions of projects"?

Tong Zhihui, professor of the College of Agriculture and Rural Development of Renmin University of China, said that the improvement of the living, living and production environment based on the village area is the unchanged foundation of rural revitalization, and it is also an important force for stable and rapid rural revitalization in the comprehensive revitalization stage.

The "Thousand Village demonstration, ten thousand village renovation" project was launched in Zhejiang Province in June 2003. The project focuses on the improvement of the "three life" environment of rural production, life and ecology. Over the years, it has created many beautiful villages. In September 2018, the "Thousand Village Demonstration and ten thousand Village renovation" project in Zhejiang Province was awarded the "Inspiration and Action Award" in the "Champion of the Earth Award" by the United Nations.

"The countryside is an integrated space of production, life and ecology. With the development of society and the promotion of rural revitalization, the requirements of rural dwellings for production, life and ecological environment will naturally continue to increase." Tong Zhihui said, "The transformation and improvement of the Sansheng environment includes the construction of infrastructure, as well as the improvement of culture, environment and other aspects. These improvements and transformations are not only the needs of farmers to build a better life, but also lay the foundation for the further development of the countryside."

A beautiful countryside, can be nostalgia, can develop industries, can retain people, Tong Zhihui said, "the village becomes better, may not have immediate benefits, but with the further integration between urban and rural areas, the flow of personnel is getting faster and faster, based on the village's production, life, ecological environment improvement, will undoubtedly accelerate the play of various industries and even economic benefits." Therefore, improving the environment is the basis for rural revitalization and the prerequisite for rural development. As emphasized at the meeting, the most important thing for the project to learn and apply is its development concept, that is, the concept of comprehensive development in the whole area, its working method, the working method that takes farmers as the main body and fully mobilizes the internal impetus, and its promotion mechanism, which starts with the practical problems that the masses are most concerned about, and focuses on the practical problems and works for a long time."

Learn and use the experience of "ten million projects" to fight a beautiful battle of rural revitalization

How to act, how to make a difference?

We should learn to deeply understand the positions, viewpoints and methods that run through them, hold the bottom line of safety, clarify the main direction of attack, optimize the tactics and strategies, and fight the beautiful battle of rural revitalization.

We must focus on "stability" and keep the basic plate of agriculture, rural areas and farmers.

Before the troops move, the grain goes first. To do a good job in agriculture, rural areas and farmers, we must not only have enough food and grass for ourselves, but more importantly, we must keep to the basic agenda of overall development, keep to the bottom line of ensuring national food security and ensuring that large-scale poverty does not occur. If the bottom line is broken, one vote is rejected, even if the other work is done beautifully, if the bottom line task is wrong, it is also a failure. In a turbulent and intertwined world, it is not easy to maintain the bottom line of security, and there should be no negligence.

To this end, it is necessary to learn to use the experience of "ten million projects" to strengthen the work, to ensure food security, consolidate and expand the bottom line tasks such as poverty alleviation achievements, adhere to the leadership of the Party and government, and use the method of "grasping and grasping" to consolidate responsibility layers on layer, and promote the implementation of work with responsibility.

It is necessary to highlight "progress" and focus on key tasks for breakthroughs.

Rural revitalization has many points, a wide range of areas and a long front, so we cannot "flood" and grasp the relationship between short-term goals, medium-term goals and long-term goals, distinguish priorities, and proceed step by step, first easy and then difficult.

It is important to know that the changes brought by the "tens of millions of projects" to Zhejiang villages are not achieved overnight, but the result of 20 years of iterative upgrading. In promoting rural revitalization, we will not be able to "eat fat in one bite". We must determine key tasks according to different stages, and combine the methods of protracted war and offensive war.

On the one hand, keep the persistence of the protracted war, one after another, draw a blueprint to the end, and anchor the goal of building an agricultural power to continue to advance;

On the other hand, we must also have the momentum to fight hard battles, find the right work entry points and breakthroughs, take into account sustainable financial resources and affordable farmers, concentrate resources and strength, and drive the overall upgrade with key breakthroughs.

We should aim for "real results" and translate our revitalization policies into tangible results.

To do a good job in agriculture, rural areas and farmers on a new journey in the new era, only determination and ideas are not enough, and we must also have effective methods. China is such a big country, different places have different resource endowments, different stages of development, and different ways to revitalize the countryside.

Learning "ten million project" experience, can not simply copy, but to combine their own situation, learning ideas and methods. It is necessary to adapt to local conditions, scientifically grasp the change trends of different villages, and take classified measures to make up for weaknesses and strengths. We must put people first and put the people first, always think from the perspective of farmers, respect their wishes, stimulate their sense of ownership, test the effectiveness of their work with their happiness and sorrow, and strive to achieve tangible results that can be felt by the masses.

One hundred achievements must be made further; A boat against the current must strive to move forward. Next year marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China and is a key year for implementing the 14th Five-Year Plan.
