Farmer's museum in central China chronicles bygone era

rm and opening up in 1978, people could buy cheap tofu and soybean milk in stores, so fewer people used such tools then," Yang said.

"This is a manual plow that people used in the 1990s, which is also my favorite collection," said the curator. "Hold its handle with both hands and drag it in the field, then you can turn over the soil and loosen it," Yang said, adding that he has been using it until today as his fields are small and scattered, making it difficult to cultivate using machines.

"But in the nearby large fields, it's common to use machines to sow seeds and spray insecticide with drones. Technology has brought earth-shaking changes to the countryside," Yang said.

Not far away from Yang's village resides Xu Dabin who is in charge of a cooperative. Xu has a farming land of over 500 mu (about 33 hectares), planting grain and cash crops. He has bought different mechanical equipment for the cooperative, including a forklift, vacuum precooler and ice bank.

"These machines have saved us a lot of time. Five to six years ago, it took at least one week to plow, apply fertilizer and sow seeds in a 40-mu field, but now we get all these things done within eight hours with the help of machines," Xu said.

Yang also buys new machines from time to time. Last year, he added a solar water heater, two electric water heaters and a water dispenser to his two-story building. He said he can now drink clean water or use hot water anytime and anywhere.

Yang said nearly 2,000 tourists have visited his museum to date. "I will always keep the museum open and continue collecting various objects to chronicle the changes in farmers' lives more comprehensively," he said.
