Farmers across the country are leasing their small plots of land to businesses to earn more money and improve their lives. Wang Xiaodong reports from Jieshou, Anhui.
For many decades, Zhang Zhigang labored on 0.2 hectares of land, growing wheat and corn to feed his family of four.
However, five years ago, he stopped working on the farm, when, along with many of his neighbors, he leased his plot to a horticultural company.
