What is precision poverty alleviation?

Accurate poverty alleviation: it is the symmetry of poverty alleviation in a broad sense. It refers to the poverty alleviation method that uses scientific and effective procedures to accurately identify, help and manage the poverty-stricken objects in different poverty-stricken areas and different poor farmers. Generally speaking, precision poverty alleviation is mainly aimed at poor residents, and whoever is poor will be supported.

Reasons for accurate poverty alleviation

China's poverty alleviation and development began in the mid-1980s. After nearly 30 years of unremitting efforts, it has achieved brilliant achievements recognized by the world. However, for a long time, the problems such as unclear number of poor residents, unclear situation, weak pertinence, and inaccurate investment in poverty alleviation funds and projects have become more prominent. One of the important reasons is that there are currently 82.49 million rural poor residents in China (including 6.02 million in Sichuan), actually far more than 80 million. This data is calculated by the National Bureau of Statistics based on the sample data of 74,000 farmers nationwide. This data is not very scientific for studying the scale of poor residents and analyzing the development trend of poverty, but there are some uncertain problems in the specific work, such as "who are poor residents", "what are the reasons for poverty", "how to help them specifically" and "how to help them". Because there is no unified poverty alleviation information system in the whole province and even the whole country, there are many blind spots in the work of helping specific poor residents and poor farmers, and some real poor farmers and poor residents have not been helped.

Behind precise poverty alleviation is extensive poverty alleviation. For a long time, because the data of poor residents are decomposed step by step after sampling survey, there are widespread problems of poor quality and low efficiency in poverty alleviation, such as: the number of poor residents is unclear, the poverty alleviation targets are often "estimated" by grassroots cadres, and the poverty alleviation funds are "scattered", resulting in "poverty alleviation every year"; Key counties are unwilling to "lift their hats off poverty", and the figures are falsified, occupying and wasting national poverty alleviation resources; Poverty alleviation by human feelings and relationships has caused social injustice such as helping the rich but not helping the poor, and even bred corruption. On the surface, extensive poverty alleviation is a problem in working methods, which essentially reflects the big problem of cadres and the masses' concept and ruling concept, and can not be underestimated.

There are defects in the design of the current poverty alleviation system. Many poverty alleviation projects are "indiscriminate irrigation" and are not targeted. They are more "helping farmers" than "helping the poor". Take the poverty alleviation and relocation project as an example. Poor households living in remote mountainous areas, geological disaster areas and other places, one side of the soil and water is difficult to support the other, which is the most difficult "hard bone" for poverty alleviation and development. Resettlement is a better way out. However, due to the lack of subsidy funds, most farmers who enjoy poverty alleviation funds are relatively wealthy farmers, and poor farmers, especially the poorest farmers, simply cannot afford to move. New village poverty alleviation projects, industrial poverty alleviation projects and service poverty alleviation projects mainly benefit middle-and high-income farmers in poor communities, and only a small number of poor farmers benefit from them, with relatively small benefits.

To sum up, the original poverty alleviation system and mechanism must be repaired and improved. In other words, it is necessary to solve the problem of who, how and how to use money and policies. Poverty alleviation must be "accurate" and special poverty alleviation should be aimed at poor residents. In particular, special financial poverty alleviation funds must be tilted towards poor residents and used in the right direction. To help the poor, we should give timely help. Never use this money to build a high-standard new countryside. Doing image engineering can't help the poor. The development of poverty-stricken areas should mainly use financial comprehensive poverty alleviation funds and other funds.
