The Sad Fate Of A Red Jujube, The Harvest Pain Of Yu Jujube Farmers.

Not all cities are Urumqi, can be the city's peasant traders as a treasure, after the arrogance of corn and watermelon, we have once again witnessed the tragic fate of a red jujube. In August 30th, the Zhengzhou Evening News said, "after spending more than one day in the market, the market will not let in. On the road, someone will drive away. In Henan Province, the jujube farmer Li Nian Hong is in a rage, will be full of a golden jujube, a handful of tears in the river."

The city is so large that it can not tolerate a fresh jujube.

It is said that Li Nianhong wants to "pay tuition fees to the children who go to school by relying on these dates". When the city closes the door of self rescue in front of a farmer, what kind of despair and bitterness catalyzes the "alternative resistance" that throws blood and sweat.

Selling jujube is difficult, selling melon is difficult, selling peach is difficult.

The symphony of fate is reminiscent of Gao Xiaosheng's "upper city of Chen Huansheng" in the 80s of last century.

When we go abroad to investigate under the banner of "new countryside", when we are building high buildings in the trumpet of "new countryside", who can see the fate of agricultural primary products before the cost of the "tightly guarded city"?

When I was young, I went to the city with my parents and sold agricultural products. Farmers are always the most rational and great economic men.

As Nobel Schultz, the winner of W economics, said, "farmers around the world are calculating people economically in terms of costs, rewards and risks.

In their small, personal, resource allocation fields, they are fine tuned entrepreneurs, so tuned that they are so subtle that many experts fail to see how efficient they are.

The impetus for farmers to enter the city comes from the prophecy of industrialization and marketization in this era, from their trade-off between their expected revenue and cost.

Because the shelf life of fresh jujube is limited, self production and sale is still the main marketing form of a very small number of jujube households, which is the proportion of street to street. It can explain the level of industrialization of local rural areas from side to side. Moreover, farmers' natural vulnerable position has no pricing power in the market and is easy to be exploited by intermediate links.

On the face of it, in a highly developed logistics society, farmers cut off the division of labor and pport goods and pport costs directly to the city to sell direct agricultural products. This is indeed an anti market behavior. But is there a better chance to choose this jujube in addition to going to town?

Unfortunately, the city always looks at these "grandma Liu" in the "Grand View Garden" mentality, giving alms, but never allowing them to integrate into their economic life.

For example, red dates and red dates on the cars are at least fresher, safer and cheaper. Why do cities prefer to go to shopping malls and risk their risk of being covered by preservatives?

This seems very paradoxical. In fact, this proposition itself is a deviation from the main body, because the public is sure to choose the jujube on the Li Yue Hong car, but the design of the city based on face vanity is not allowed.

The cost of farmers entering the city is infinitely weird. Besides the obvious pportation and pportation costs, the most lethal institutional cost and hidden psychological cost are added. The institutional cost is to drive the agricultural products out of the city through the system provisions. The psychological cost is that the individual peasant households are running on the ice in the depth of the city through the deterrence of the administrative rigidity force and the forcing of the public opinion atmosphere.

The final result is two: do you dare to go to town?

Even if you enter the city gate, can you survive?

The core of the "three rural issues" is how to make the peasants get rich and share the fruits of reform in the process of the times. The harmony and happiness of the 900 million farmers in China urgently need us to lower the threshold of every city gate, let the market freely teach them the ability to fly, and let the fate give them the possibility of smiling impartially.
