In this busy harvest season, Zou buries her head in the fields. After establishing Chunfeng Planting Cooperative in 2014, she has expanded the planting land scale to more than 240 ha. The Cooperative has helped more than 380 people find a job and helped villagers sell their agricultural products, increasing their income by more than $45,000. During the COVID-19 pandemic, she took the lead in volunteer service by donating 10 tons of rice.
