We should all be aware that many of the post-70s and post-80s rural groups have gone out to work, and the rural exodus is a very serious problem. Now those who have settled in the village for a long time are nothing but some lonely old people and some left-behind children. Xiao Wang is a young man of the post-90s. In Xiao Wang's memory, he has good memories of his childhood life in the countryside. Although the days back then were a little bit bitter compared to the days in the city, I felt that the countryside was very nice back then and my daily life was active and full. Have you noticed over the years? The conditions in the countryside have improved greatly and the living environment is better than before, but the rural exodus is more serious than before.
In fact, farmers going out to work is nothing new, but we need to look at the essence through the phenomenon. In the past, many post-70s and post-80s rural people went out to work to earn a living. Now, young people of the post-90s also choose to develop outside. They just go back to their villages to look at the holidays. In fact, it is quite normal for people in rural areas to take such actions. After all, cities have advantages in many aspects. Parents also have places to work. It was easy for my generation to find jobs, and they were well-skilled in terms of healthcare, education, and so on. Over the years, I'm sure people from the countryside have bought houses in county towns and even provincial capitals.
There are two sides to everything. The same goes for rural exodus. As rural people, everyone should see it. Many of the post-70s and post-80s will "leave" their 60-year-olds in the countryside when they go out to work. They don't have time to take care of them for a long time. Now when they return to the countryside, the only group they see are these old people. This phenomenon exists in every village. Have you thought about this? When all these old people who stayed in the countryside die in the next few years, will there be young people coming back to settle down? I'm sure everyone hasn't thought about that either!
The exodus of rural laborers has a great impact on the countryside. The immediate impact is that the elderly in the countryside are neglected and the rural fields are devoid of ethnicity. I believe that in recent years, we have also found a lot of wasteland in the countryside. In the past, farmers had to pay agricultural tax. Now, no one wants to touch the per-acre subsidy. This phenomenon was unthinkable before. At present, people in rural areas do not want to work in agriculture after 50 or 60 years; they do not want to work in agriculture after 70 or 80 years; and they will not work in agriculture after 90 or 00 years. We should have a deep understanding of this. In recent years, the state has also noticed this phenomenon in the countryside and taken some effective measures according to the actual situation in the countryside.
