These problems in the management of rural collective funds, assets, and resources have plagued many places for a long time, including unclear collective ownership, over-long-term and low-price contracting of resource contracting, and white voucher ac

Reporters recently conducted research at the grassroots level and learned that some places have carried out special rectifications on the management of rural collective three resources, explored the construction of smart supervision platforms, implem

Special Rectification to Warn of Risk Points

For a long time, issues have frequently occurred in the field of rural collective "three assets". Reporters learned in interviews that during the special rectification, some common issues have become important factors hindering rural economic develop

The collective assets of villages are prone to be "vague accounts". Due to irregular management and inadequate supervision, many villages have lacked clear records of their funds, assets, and resources in the past.

Reporters learned from the grassroots interviews that some counties have identified problems in rural collective financial management in 172 villages, with 160 villages experiencing disorderly financial management, including the misuse of funds for p

The unclear situation provides an opportunity for various types of misappropriation and occupation. Relevant departments have revealed to reporters that a village group leader has misappropriated a total of 14.78 million yuan of collectively raised f

Several interviewed grassroots officials believe that if the village cadres are not clear about the collective property of the village, it would be like walking with blindfold, losing direction and the trust of villagers.

The deputy director of the county's agriculture and rural affairs bureau believes that the hardest part of supervising the three assets of rural collectivism is to make clear the financial status of the family, because an unclear status may lead to v

Contract management issues need to be prevented. In the process of rural collective resource contracting and leasing, unreasonable contracts such as ultra-long term and ultra-low price contracting are common, which seriously damage the interests of t

In 2004, a village group rented 100 acres of barren land for 20 years. The rent was 5 yuan per mu per year for the first five years and 20 yuan per mu per year for the next fifteen years. After local investigation, the original contract was terminate

Some contracts signed more than ten years ago have a duration of 50 years, or even 80 years. A town mayor disclosed that many villages had similar situations in the past, where the resources covered in these long-term contracts were often idle assets

The phenomenon of "white-strip accounting" was once common. Village-level financial management was not standardized, and invoices were used arbitrarily. Simple white strips could be used for reimbursement. Reporters have learned since this year that

In the past, there were many white-strip reimbursement reports, and some expenses were not invoiced. You could just submit a form and get reimbursement, said a deputy party secretary of a village. In the past, there were even situations where some vi

It was reported that a village party branch secretary made a false contract for cleaning and repairing a mountain pond to cover the meal expenses of the village committee at two town hotels in recent years. In November 2022, he colluded with other vi

Double-wheel Drive to Improve Regulatory Efficiency

In response to the long-standing issues in the management of the three assets of rural collectives, some areas in Jiangxi are actively exploring the dual-wheel drive of technology enablement and institutional innovation to enhance supervision efficie

The city of Fuzhou has implemented an innovative red, yellow, green classification management mechanism in response to the unclear collective asset inventory and idle waste. In Yihuang County alone, 507 collective resources and assets have been class

Yu Xiangyang, Deputy Director of the Agricultural and Rural Bureau of Yihuang County, explained that green labels represent healthy assets that have been put into use through self-use, leasing, contracting, etc.; yellow labels indicate assets that ar

Three-color classification management is not only a color identification, but also a corresponding conversion mechanism. "Three-color management allows us to have a clear view of the collective's finances and make our work priorities clearer. Red ass

In particular, the 300-square-meter food processing plant in Dongpai Village, Fenggang Town, Yihuang County, was originally a “red” idle asset. Through special rectification, it has been successfully revitalized and rented out for mushroom box proces

Build the Sunshine Three Resources platform to achieve transparent management. Nanfeng County has innovatively launched a Sunshine Village Affairs Code Knowledge QR code system, allowing villagers to scan the code and supervise the real-time flow of

"Now, through scanning the QR code, the situation of resources and assets is clearly visible, which completely eliminates the problems of non-publicity, false publicity or selective publicity," said Wu Yan, deputy director of the Nanfeng County Agric

For example, Mr. Li from Hangshan Village, Taihe Town, discovered through scanning a code that the village's office company had missed registering a cooperation agreement with a telecommunications company, and timely supplementary entry avoided asset

This innovative measure has increased awareness among villagers to exceed 70%, effectively guaranteeing public oversight, driving the county to rectify 540 issues related to “three resources and assets”, improve 3,402 contracts, and recover losses of

Big data enables supervision and creates a closed-loop for whole-chain regulation. Focusing on the difficulties of supervising small powers at the village level, the Discipline and Supervision Commission of Dongxiang District in Fuzhou City has innov

Shu Liguang, the deputy secretary of the East Xiang District Commission of Discipline Inspection in Fuzhou City, stated that last November, the system identified anomalies in a public cemetery construction project in a certain village through data co

Since the system has been operating, it has recovered rent of 182,000 yuan, reduced village-level expenditures by 2,597,000 yuan, and promoted the establishment of more than 40 institutional norms, providing a strong supervisory guarantee for rural r

It still needs precise measures to overcome the challenge.

In interviews, reporters learned that while some pain points and difficulties have been alleviated, rural collective "three-capital" supervision in some areas still faces two major challenges.

First, the departmental coordination mechanism needs to be improved. The supervision of rural "three assets" involves multiple departments such as agriculture and rural areas, finance, auditing, discipline inspection and supervision. In practice, onl

The second issue is the lack of management talent in villages and towns. The management of rural resources is highly professional, yet villages and township organizations often lack talent with professional abilities. Grassroots cadres have reported

It is understood that due to the cancellation of the original agricultural economic station at the township level, some township officials have limited professional abilities and lack initiative. Some townships have hired accounting companies to keep

To this end, grassroots cadres believe that the supervision of rural three assets still needs to continue deepening the results of governance and promote the construction of long-term mechanisms.

On one hand, it is necessary to deepen digital enablement and build a smart supervision platform. Use technological means to make the operation of small and micro powers more standardized and transparent. Shu Liguang believes that it is necessary to

On the other hand, it is necessary to optimize the allocation of power and responsibilities as well as the talent structure to effectively reduce the burden on the grassroots level and enhance their capabilities. Faced with the dilemma of multiple co
