The ancient Fengyang, was ruled by feudalism for long time, and the natural disaster was frequent. The peasant was diligent and tired, suffering hunger and cold for all generation. After liberation, people received new lives, but the wish of dressing warmly and eating one's fill didn't achieve. People want to change when poverty strikes. Regarding the Xiaogang Village, they took the lead to practice the Dabaogan (agricultural system of allowing responsibility to the individual ) responsibility system, and the fact proved that its exuberant does not fade.
Xiaogang Village lies in the east of Fengyang County, and it is 40 kilometers far from the county towns, under the jurisdiction of the XiaoXiHe town, consisting two tight natural Villages Xiaogang and Dayan. It is five kilometers from Beijing-shanghai Railway, 13.5kilometers from Line 307 provincial highway, more than 20 kilometers from the two shipping quays of the Huaihe River: Mingguang and Linhuai. There are 108 households now, 476 people, 180 workforce, 150 people above junior middle school schooling, among them 5 people finished the university study. Cultivated area is 1,800 Chinese acres, and per capital cultivated land is 4.85 Chinese acres, and among them 1,070 Chinese acres are contracting to be cultivated.
Before 1978, Xiaogang Village was famous in the county for “eating by exporting back, spending money by relieving, and producing by the loan.” Every 20 households served as team cadre. “The abacus rang, the team leader changed” had already become the peculiar law here at that time. By the end of 1977, the people of Xiaogang Village have already been penniless. No matter influential or poor, every family went out. No matter men or women, so long as one can walk begged for food.
It is December 1978 that 18 peasant families of Xiaogang Village with “dare world first” courage and insight, pressed their fingerprints with red ink on the paper to show their determination of putting Dabaogan (the system of allowing responsibility to the individual) into practice, which at that time, a quite dangerous thing. That was the prelude of the revolution of rural in China, and therefore Xiaogang Village became the birthplace of Chinese rural reform. In 1993, the natural village Xiaogang mixed up another natural village Dayang and formed today's Xiaogang Village.
Under the energetical support of various circles of society, the Xiaogang Village has strengthened such infrastructure construction as the road, communication, water supply, power supply, etc.. They made great effort to create good investment and development environment and implemented water changing and lavatory changing and forestation and beautification projects in an all-round way. They created the exhibition room, villager reading room, archives room, clinics, wired broadcast and TV, peasant's science and technology cultural school and a complete primary school.
After each family has adequate food and clothing, Xiaogang Village suffered the same difficult of getting rich with other village. A jingle spreads in the locality: “Cross the food and clothing thread in one year, rich bank did not pass in 20 years.” In 1990s, after a series considering, Xiaogang villagers realized that industry makes people rich. Therefore they employed three high-educated talents to the village to help setting up enterprises, and they attracted several overseas funded enterprises, at the same time, they shifted the workforce outwards. Altogether more than 70 young Xiaogang villagers went out of the village, but it was totally different with that before. They came out not for begging but for engaging in trade, running the factory, studying the techniques. They came out to be a good new generation. They came out to revitalized the Xiaogang with diligent working. The young generation of Xiaogang Village emerge in course of developing the spring tide of market economy.
The national best economic efficiency village——Zhangjiagang Yangtze River village (They created the profits and taxes ultra hundred million Yuan every year) stretches out the olive branch to the Xiaogang Village to form the sister villages to make cooperation in the various implementation. They helped the farmer to catch the market information with emphasis, solve problem which how the Xiaogang Village got sustainable development and wealth. Under the help of Yangtze River village, the Xiaogang Village completed the area nearly 80 Chinese acres high quality grapes planting demonstration garden in 2001, and promoted in entire village. The Yangtze River village also sents the experts to instruct many times. At present, above 90% the Xiaogang Village 108 households villagers all planted the grape, and the total area have amounted to 450 Chinese acres. In 2004 the Xiaogang grape obtained bumper crop, and the highest yield per mu amounts to 3,000 kilograms, and the total output amounts to 250,000 kilograms. before as early as mature of the grape, the Xiaogang person positively did the propaganda, run the market to achieve the implementation order form sale, but also held the first sessions Xiaogang Village grape festival for 30 day-long in ChuZhou to expand the Xiaogang grape's well-knownness, and promote the sale. The income of all the villagers who plant the grape exceed thousand Yuan. In 2004 the whole villagers' net income amounts to 3,500 Yuan.
The Xiaogang Village's second management group has formulated the Xiaogang Village people's common enrichment goal, that is to guarantee the average per person yearly income to increase progressively above 400 Yuan. The measures adopted includes: Unifying the Xiaogang Village's geographical feature, developing the high quality grape, the small fragrant pig vigorously and so on the highly effective crop production; and using the “Xiaogang” brand to attract investment to speed up the Xiaogang Village managed industry and the collective economy development. At the same time, continues to adjust the industrial structure. The implementation of “phoenix returns the nest”: making full use of the talent, technology, the fund superiority of more than 70 young people now working outside, then gradually abandoning the one family production management way, and choosing the agricultural production collectivization path. Arguing vigorously in as far as possible the short time, they use the Xiaogang brand to develop tourism and establish the ecology of sightseeing agriculture. The Dabaogan memorial hall (to memorize the system of allowing responsibility to the individual) opened this June 19th, and the Anhui provincial party committee, the provincial government, the Chuzhou municipal party committee, the municipal government, the Fengyang county party committee and the county government invest the construction together. Chinese Academy of Science academician, the nation famous constructor, Professor of the Southeast University Qi Kang designsed it. It covers 30 Chinese acre, floor space 2,600 square meters.

“The pocket blows up” is always the Xiaogang person's dream. The leader of Dabaogan (system of allowing responsibility to the individual) once sighed with emotion in the past: We crossed the warm and sufficient condition line in one step, but we are not near wealthy gates for 25 year. Now, benefited from the central government's first document's spirit, Xiaogang people are making full implementation of three step walks through the adjustment of industrial structure, the introduction of improved seed, the development of fish breeding and poultry raising and so on a series of measures, moving towards wealth by the unprecedented speed. |
