(240603) -- ZHENGZHOU, June 3, 2024 Photo by Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM) -- Du Mengyuan operates a combine harvester through the wheat fields in Guanmiaodu Village of Lushan County in Pingdingshan City, central China's Henan Province, May 29, 2024. Amidst the golden waves of wheat and the roar of machinery, 22-year-old Du Mengyuan, a female machine operator, skillfully maneuvers a combine harvester through the fields. Growing up in a rural village, Du Mengyuan developed a deep connection with the land. After graduating from university in 2023, she made the bold decision to return to her hometown and start her own business. "I love this land and hope to give back to my hometown with what I have learned," Du said. Over the past year, Du has utilized online platforms to sell local agricultural products, while also capturing the essence of rural life through her camera during her spare time. In April of this year, Du achieved a significant milestone as she obtained her driving license of tractor and combine harvester.
