Fan Yulin, a villager whose household has shaken off poverty, picks cucumbers at his home yard in Quansheng Village of Lindian County, northeast China's Heilongjiang Province, July 8, 2020. The first batch of cucumbers planted at his home yard has been distributed to the market. Local authorities of Lindian have guided local villagers to plant vegetables at their own house yards and help them expand distribution channels, as a way to help them increase incomes and shake off poverty. A total of 14,000 households, including 3,000 poverty-stricken households, have engaged in home yards planting. (Xinhua/Wang Jianwei)
