What they say

As a farmer, I'm happiest when seeing a good grain harvest and increased income. Due to heavy rains in Heilongjiang province this year, seedlings faced great challenges. Party members rushed to drain water, and they helped improve seeding efficiency by using large earthmoving machinery. Despite heavy rains and the short spring sowing, we did not have to delay farming operations. We used organic fertilizers rather than chemical ones, and reduced the use of pesticides. The rice is growing well at present, and I can say that this year is another good year.
