Recently, Bin County has been coordinating the promotion of specialty cultivation and ecological farming, fully activating the small plots of land around rural homes. This initiative transforms farmers' courtyards into "income-boosting gardens," paving a path for rural revitalization characterized by ecological beauty, industrial prosperity, and increased wealth for residents.
Since the beginning of the year, Bin County has focused on optimizing the structure of courtyard planting based on local conditions, using precise investments to solidify the industrial foundation. An investment of 52,800 yuan was allocated to distribute 656.25 kilograms of corn seeds. Another 23,500 yuan was invested to procure 747 saplings of crabapple and Longfeng apple trees, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of the courtyards. Furthermore, 263,300 yuan was invested to supply 195,800 high-quality seedlings for crops like tomatoes, cucumbers, and string beans, along with distributing 3,220 kilograms of red groundcherry seeds and developing 15 acres of raspberry cultivation. These small vegetable and fruit gardens balance ecological benefits with economic returns, simultaneously beautifying the village environment and increasing farmers' incomes.
Concurrently, Bin County has strengthened support for courtyard ecological farming. A cumulative investment of 662,700 yuan has been directed to support household courtyard breeding. This includes 130,800 yuan for distributing 18,270 chicks and 531,900 yuan for distributing 38,100 goslings. This effort aims to turn farmyards, filled with the sounds of poultry and the fragrance of fruits and vegetables, into "treasure troves" for households.
As a key township for developing courtyard economy in Bin County, Minhe Township focuses on ensuring sustained income growth for households lifted out of poverty and those under monitoring, implementing detailed and practical support measures. Village cadres and resident work teams conducted door-to-door surveys to accurately understand the breeding intentions, courtyard conditions, and labor situations of 106 households, formulating a scientific distribution plan. Recently, a centralized distribution of 600 chicks and 1,720 goslings was carried out, comprehensively benefiting all households lifted out of poverty and monitoring targets in the area. The distribution event also included technical guidance on breeding, covering key points such as disease prevention for young poultry, feeding management, and coop disinfection. A follow-up mechanism for regular visits will be established, where agricultural technicians and village cadres will provide on-site assistance to solve breeding challenges. This ensures farmers can "raise successfully, manage effectively, and gain profits," building a foundation for long-term income growth through comprehensive chain services.
Small courtyards carry big dreams, and micro-industries contribute to major revitalization. By 2026, through county-level coordination, precise policy implementation, and targeted investment, Bin County aims to transform its courtyard economy from "scattered development" to "specialized clustering," and from "individual efforts" to "collective income growth." The solid practices of various townships and villages in revitalizing these small plots inject fresh momentum into enhancing the quality and efficiency of Bin County's courtyard economy. This positions the "small vegetable garden" as a new engine for rural revitalization and a new pillar for farmers' prosperity.
