In the past, due to the high geographical position of the terraced fields in the Millennium Yao Village, inconvenient transportation and poor harvest, a large number of young and middle-aged workers in the village have gone out to work, and the land has gradually been abandoned. In the ten years since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, with the in-depth promotion of the rural revitalization strategy, the infrastructure of the Millennium Yaozhai Village has been continuously improved. Under the high attention of the county party committee and the county government, under the leadership of the Party building, the wasteland has been opened up and the land resources have been integrated, so that the villagers can achieve "double income" through the form of "land transfer+local labor", so that the abandoned land can glow with new vitality.
This year, in order to celebrate the harvest and the National Day, the Yao people harvest new rice on the millennium terraces. The Yao people also used the newly harvested corn, pumpkins and red peppers to decorate the terraced fields across the crisscross paths with bumper harvests, and expressed the beautiful vision of "bumper crops". A series of patterns celebrating the development of the motherland and the harvest of farmers can be called a visual feast, which makes the colorful terraces glow with new vitality.
During the harvest music festival, the Yao people will create a "pastoral pastoral song" style that combines "music+intangible cultural heritage+agricultural tourism" through such performances as the national heritage "Long Drum Dance", "Ousha Waist", a thousand people long table banquet, red song flash, terraced landscape performance and the bonfire festival celebrating the harvest, activate the Yao's millennium terraced fields with music, expand agricultural, cultural and tourism research, and help the rural revitalization. Local villagers also use their own houses to open homestays and farmhouses, sell local specialties, etc., and their income is higher year by year. In addition, the "Cloud Ladder Field" has been set up to enable thousands of acres of good farmland to be planted online, so that urban residents can watch the growth of crops without leaving their homes, share fruitful results, and expand a new path for the revitalization of cultural tourism.
