Compared with other townships last year and this year, Honghua Township's policies for this year's "Three Improvements and Five Unifications" are unique:
First, the collection of the 20 yuan per person education supplement was suspended. The township Party Committee repeatedly considered the matter, and while the temporary cancellation of the supplement hadn't been heard of elsewhere, it wasn't clear whether being the first to adopt it would be a blessing or a curse. Ultimately, the word "suspend" was used. If higher-ups disagree, the collection will resume. If higher-ups don't agree, the suspension will remain in place. With the township's average farmer income around 500 yuan, suspending the 20 yuan supplement is a welcome relief for farmers.
Furthermore, the 25 yuan per person "Three Raises and Five Unifications" fee is collected and centrally managed by the township, and recorded and used in all village accounts. In other words, the money paid by villagers for the "Three Raises and Five Unifications" is not used by the township, but is kept in the village accounts, but the township oversees its use. Without the signature of the relevant township leaders, the money cannot be withdrawn, let alone used. Ultimately, this money is given to the village, and the village secretaries and directors are delighted. They are determined not to be absent-minded or neglectful about the "Three Raises and Five Unifications" anymore. They must find a way to get those stubborn households who refuse to pay to collect the money. This is village income that cannot be given up. As for how to use it and getting the leaders' signature, these are not major issues.
Secretary Li Jianguo and Township Chief Zhao planned to use the "Three Increases and Five Unifications" as a starting point, with each village coordinating funds. They would first select a group of pig farmers, lead everyone to work, and show everyone how to do it. Through demonstration and leadership, they would build a "One Person, One Pig to Get Rich Project." For demonstration households that raise sows and piglets, they would use rewards instead of subsidies from the "Three Increases and Five Unifications" village-level coordination. The plan is to reward 500 yuan for each sow and 30 yuan for each piglet. For a village with 600 people, if they raise 10 sows and 100 piglets, the total subsidy will be 8,000 yuan. In addition, a subsidy of 3,000 yuan will be given for the construction of standardized pig pens. The village still has a surplus of 4,000 yuan, which can be used for the construction of village roads and water conservancy ditches.
After raising pigs for a year, the people will see the effectiveness of scientific pig farming and will take the initiative to follow suit. There will be no need for subsidies in the future. As for how to spend the money from the three increases and five unifications next year, we will talk about it next year. Anyway, it is taken from the people and used for the people.
