From policy support to industry to help farmers rush to a rich and prosperous new life
Well-off is not well-off, the key depends on fellow villagers.
It is an important goal of rural revitalization to continuously increase farmers’ income and let farmers’ "money bags" swell up. Entrepreneurship and innovation in rural areas has become an important way to prosper rural industries and increase farmers’ income.

From the perspective of operating income, the value-added space of agricultural products continues to expand; From the perspective of migrant workers’ income, the wage level of migrant workers is constantly improving; From the perspective of property income, the dividend of rural reform continued to be released, driving the rapid growth of net property income; From the perspective of transfer income, the policy of strengthening agriculture, benefiting farmers and enriching farmers has been continuously strengthened, and the proportion of transfer income has increased significantly.
The sustained growth of farmers’ income is inseparable from the prosperity of the industry, and it is inseparable from the help of reform. Liu Huanxin, Vice Minister of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said that during the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, rural reform continued to deepen, more than 200 million farmers received land contractual management rights certificates, and the "separation of powers" made significant progress, which was extended for another 30 years after the second round of land contracting expired; A new round of rural homestead reform pilot was launched; The verification of rural collective assets has been basically completed, the membership of more than 600 million collective members has been confirmed, and the "four beams and eight pillars" of rural reform have been basically constructed.
