Eco-farmer nurtures dreams of tourism

Editor's note: In the run-up to the 19th Communist Party of China National Congress, China Daily sent six reporters to villages nationwide to live for a month and take a look at how people are working under China's poverty eradication plan.

Hu Zhongqing, 27, left Chengmagang town in Macheng city, Hubei province, nine years ago for college, where he majored in horticultural studies.

Like most people born in the 1990s, he found jobs in big cities after graduation and set aside his dream of building an eco-farm in his hometown.
