China is a large agricultural country, with a large scale of rural areas and a large population of peasants. The basic conditions of our country are that more tan two thirds of the total population lives in the countryside and the people per capital income are less than 300 dollars. Among the 800 million peasants, 30million of them are not warmly dressed and fed, and such problem has not been steadily solved for another 60 million; the added number of which accounts for more than 7% of the total population. The report of the sixteenth congress of our Party stresses: the well-off state we have attained is low-leveled, incomprehensive and unbalanced, which, in fact, indicates nowadays rural condition, especially that of the western area. Hence, it's peasants who are far away from being well off, only in terms of economy, culture and education.

Therefore, to advance rural economy and increase peasants' income becomes an important and imperative strategic task, which is concerned with the failure of success of the magnificent aim that the sixteenth congress of our Party has proposed. It is only when peasants' pockets are full and rural economy develops that the rural society will peaceful and stabilized eventually.However, in recent years, our peasants' per capital income just keeps circuitously increased.

On one hand, most of the civil industries are flourishing and the gaining of citizens grow up in a steady-going way; on the other hand, the agriculture stays in a misery situation and peasants keeps living in a poor life. Consequently, it' hard for peasants to increase their gaining and the income gap between the rural and urban is getting larger and larger, and this is considered to be the two major problems that china is facing in the new era.Work Relief is a form of relief and support in poverty-stricken areas, with the country providing the fund and farmers exerting their efforts.
