The rippling blue waves and the spring breeze are blowing. Recently, the reporter walked into the back mine park of Zhongli Village, Daqiao Town, Xinfeng County, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province. Children laughed and chased, villagers pulled their daily life, and tourists stopped to take photos. After the treatment, the abandoned mine has become today's green mountains and rivers, and a poetic and picturesque mountain village is in front of us. "The village is really a big change, just like Xanadu." Xie Luhua, a villager in Zhongli Village, has lived in her hometown for more than ten years, and she has a personal experience of the changes in abandoned mines.

In the past, Zhongli was "very brilliant" because of its abundant coal resources, but with the depletion of resources, it left behind "serious disasters". The local people concluded that there were "more than three": more slag in mines, more idle people in barren fields, and more floods. In recent years, Daqiao Town has vigorously carried out ecological protection and restoration, realizing the magnificent turn of changing mining areas into scenic spots, idle people into capable people, and floods into water conservancy.
According to the relevant person in charge of the Natural Resources Bureau of Xinfeng County, the management of abandoned mines in Zhongli Village was included in the first ecological restoration project of mountains, rivers, forests, fields and lakes in the county, with an investment of 8.62 million yuan, and the project of repairing roads, planting trees, laying turf, building guardrails, benches and viewing pavilions was carried out. At the same time, special funds were obtained to improve the soil of hundreds of mu of abandoned land at the foot of the mountain, and more than 200 mu of high-standard new greenhouse vegetable industrial park was built.

. The construction of high-standard vegetable industrial park not only strengthens the village collective economy, but also brings a stable way for villagers to become rich.
In 2018, village cadres took the lead in planting vegetables, vegetable experts went to the fields to teach technology, and migrant villagers returned home one after another, and Cao Zongquan was one of them. Cao Zongquan, a villager, sighed with emotion: "Affected by the geological disasters caused by the mine in previous years, the surrounding surface dried up and the fields subsided, making it difficult to cultivate.". Nowadays, the ponds in the mine park are not only landscape lakes, but also irrigate the surrounding fields, which have been abandoned for many years. Cao Zongquan planted four vegetable greenhouses, a total of 16 mu, the yield per mu can reach 12800 Jin, annual income of more than 400000 yuan, he is confident of future development, "Now good ah, the more prosperous the day!"
Today, Daqiao Town vigorously promotes industrial development, trains young entrepreneurs to return home and devote themselves to agriculture. yuan Liming, the representative of the post-80s generation, and Huang Shaoyou, the representative of the post-90s generation, have become major farmers in the village. The concept of "three mountains, three rivers and two pastures" has been introduced, and 1000 mu of grain base, 100 mu of open-air high-standard vegetable (lotus seed) demonstration base and 300 mu of rapeseed demonstration base have been built. "Rice bag", "vegetable basket" and "oil pot" have become the "magic weapon" for local people to increase their income and become rich.
From mining, selling mines to opening up wasteland and planting, Zhongli Village, through the organic combination of mine ecological management and industrial development, has turned abandoned mines into "Jinshan Yinshan" with green ecology, wealth and income, and a beautiful picture of the countryside with beautiful mountains and rivers, blue sky and green land, and beautiful villages is slowly unfolding.
