History is a good mirror, which allows us to better understand the past.
In 1980s, I walked out of school and went into villages and towns to engage in forestry work, and experienced the development of forestry stations, which was vivid in my mind.
At that time, there was no concept of forestry station. Those who are engaged in forestry are called "foresters". People and property belong to villages and towns, and the business is guided by the Forestry Bureau, forming a management mode of combining strips and blocks. My main job is to guide seedling raising, afforestation design and acceptance. I usually go to the countryside like a government worker, and I don't have the conditions to manage forest resources systematically.
Wood for farmers' own use is called "civil wood" and basically does not apply for logging. As long as you don't steal from others, you basically live in peace. Only timber sold abroad is called "commodity timber", and they need to apply for timber certificates for sales, delivery and transportation. The management of forest resources, timber, woodland and wetland is very extensive and basically in a disorderly state, which is the real situation before there is no forestry station.
The continuous standardization and improvement of grass-roots forestry stations plays a vital role in protecting forest resources.
Since 1990s, township forestry stations have been established in various places, and standardized forestry stations led by forestry authorities have been established. With the strong cooperation of local governments, people and property have been gradually recovered, forming a management model that combines districts and gives priority to districts. In the heyday of this county, there were more than 120 forestry professionals, a large number of technical and management personnel, an increasingly fine division of labor, and the management of forest resources was gradually on the right track.
Especially in recent years, the annual high-definition satellite image monitoring measures of forest resources have achieved remarkable results. According to the data of previous forest resources surveys, the national forest resources have been significantly improved in quantity and quality. Of course, this is inseparable from the state's attention to the ecological environment, the correct strategy of the competent forestry authorities to protect forest resources, and the unremitting efforts of all forest farmers.
Can management and forestry law enforcement be "hardened" again?
At present, it seems a foregone conclusion that grass-roots forestry stations should be zoned again. Personally, once grass-roots forestry stations are zoned and people and property are "decentralized", the tough stance of grass-roots forestry stations in forest resources management will be weakened from the perspective of work alone, which is not conducive to the forestry law enforcement management that has been gradually standardized for decades.
First of all, after the division of forestry stations, the ability of business supervision and guidance of the competent bureau will definitely weaken, and the guidance and supervision work will no longer be so fast, and the intensity will weaken, and the grass-roots implementation will feel powerless;
Secondly, the complexity of township work inevitably involves the energy of grass-roots stations, which can not fully carry out forest resources management, affect the continuity of supervision and law enforcement, and fail to achieve the effect of high-pressure normalization.
Finally, local development is inseparable from infrastructure construction, investment and development, and the red line of cultivated land cannot be touched, and woodland bears the brunt. I believe that many grass-roots forestry workers feel the "pressure" from local governments in some attractive "big projects" and some infrastructure construction that they have to do. In this context, how to manage forest resources?
Of course, maybe it's just an alarmist, or maybe it's just an "old brain" Paying attention to environmental protection and ecology now is a red line that governments at all levels can't touch. Governments at all levels will understand the stakes and do their best to protect ecological forest resources.
As a grass-roots forestry worker, I am full of affection for forestry. I expect that after the institutional reform, no matter what happens, I will continue the strong supervision of forest resources and maintain the hard-won and effective forest resources protection system and supervision measures.
Welcome colleagues from the national grass-roots forestry stations to pay attention to messages and discuss exchanges with them. Thank you!
Forestry has played a key role in the development of collective forests! Resource management, forest fire prevention, afforestation, implementation of national policies on returning farmland to forests, clearing up forest land, and publicizing and implementing forestry policies on benefiting farmers! Serve farmers to develop under-forest economy, encourage afforestation, register and issue certificates for forest farmers, protect forest resources, continue afforestation, and give full play to the ecological and social benefits of collective forests on which millions of farmers in Qian Qian depend. Forestry station is not easy, facing thousands of households, that is, workers and law enforcement forest protection, with heavy workload and great responsibility! Every inspection, every accountability! Ecological resources protection is no small matter!
Forestry stations with fewer people and more responsibilities are seriously short of people and technical talents! Grass-roots forestry stations can only be strengthened, not weakened! Strengthening professionalism and improving service are conducive to the development of resources!
Decentralization of township management by township forestry stations will only be detrimental to forestry development, because forestry specialty is too technical and township leaders are amateur, which makes forestry miserable.
Grassroots forestry stations belong to township management, which has advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that it can mobilize the report accumulation of township party committees and governments, get the support of township party committees and governments in time, and get the cooperation of other departments and villages under the unified management of township party committees and governments. Disadvantages: the villages and towns are fragmented, the technical funds are uneven, which is not conducive to the overall development of forest resources, the forestry technical force can not be brought into full play, the efficiency of capital utilization is low, the afforestation layout is inconvenient, and the forest harvesting and transportation are difficult to control, which is not conducive to the overall protection and utilization of forest resources.
I am telling the truth. The forestry station here 18 was managed by villages and towns, but it has been revoked and merged into the agricultural service center. There is no benefit, but the workload has increased, and it is all around the government center, not a lot of forestry.
For a long time, grass-roots forestry stations have implemented dual leadership management of townships and forestry bureaus. After years of practice, there are also many diseases. For example, if a township has management power and no personnel power, it is equivalent to leaving it alone. Over time, you will naturally relax or be too lazy to take care of it. For the business guidance and management of the competent bureau, many businesses will fight with the planning and construction of towns and villages, especially in the protection of forest resources, and it is difficult to handle cases according to law. Dealing with deforestation is particularly difficult. People often intercede, and some even rise to the height of social stability to obstruct it. Everywhere is lonely, no one to rely on. Other businesses are also difficult to cooperate in place and can only go with the flow.
::: The reform of grass-roots forestry stations, as long as leaders can stand at the same height to understand and understand, I believe the reform will be successful.
When you get to the township forestry station, it will not be your job. It can be said that forestry work is basically neglected. The main job is to stay in the village, such as poverty alleviation, old-age insurance, social security and health work.
I used to be a forestry worker, and I also experienced the change of forestry station system in my daily administrative work. To tell the truth, the grass-roots forestry workstations are classified as township management, which does more harm than good. Unable to properly manage forest resources. The reason is:
First, the township government is responsible for the administrative management of villages and towns, and the management work is complicated. After the forestry station is placed under the management of the township government, it becomes a rural workstation, which undertakes the rural work of the township, not the forestry-oriented work. I have worked in villages and towns for more than ten years. As long as I work in the center, the forestry station must cooperate with the central work of the township government, including family planning, science and technology promotion, social security and so on.
Second, the work of forestry stations is affected. Forestry is a systematic project, and it takes time and professional technicians to do it from forestry development planning to returning farmland to forests. After the forestry station is placed under the township government, they must obey the leadership of the township government and have no energy or time to do these professional things.
Third, forestry professionals can't engage in professional. After the forestry station is placed under the township government, the township basically regards forestry professionals as township cadres to use and manage, serve the center, contact the village and stay in the village is the "specialty" of forestry staff.
Of course, there are also cases where forestry management is better and stronger after forestry stations are placed under township management. Due to the importance of forest resources and the status of forestry, township governments attach great importance to forestry management. So everything is relative, not absolute.
After the grass-roots forestry workstations were placed under the management of villages and towns, there were many management problems. The business guidance of the superior forestry department is actually decoupled, and the tasks deployed by provinces and States cannot be put in place in time. To tell the truth, many towns and villages are extremely reluctant to make a fuss about long-term forestry investment in order to complete the image project, even if there are any tasks above, they can't fully cooperate. As the county-level forestry authorities, there is nothing they can do. A few forestry workers have also been transferred to engage in land acquisition and demolition. Because forestry is hard and complicated, it is easy to offend people. Therefore, the on-the-job forestry workers in villages and towns are eager to be transferred to other jobs. Therefore, the work of other towns and villages has been pushed to the competent forestry department at the next higher level, which makes a very small number of people in the competent forestry department at the county level have to manage a huge jurisdiction, resulting in too busy work.
Go anywhere, as long as you give enough money, you can do it well, and you don't give a penny.
