Poverty is one of the major issues that have drawn great attention in the world.It is also a big problem that cannot be ignored by various social forms and economic models.China has always attached great importance to poverty.After years of promoting poverty alleviation plan,we have reduced large-scale poverty at the fastest speed in human history,and become the first developing country to reduce half of its poor people according to the United Nations Millennium Development Goals.However,there are some areas' grade of poverty is very high,and China still faces massive absolute poverty,so the task of poverty alleviation is really difficult.In recent years,although our country has attached great importance to poverty alleviation,it's more like a top-down management.For example,the government tends to arrange everything like making policy and implementing policy all by itself,instead of getting people involved,which makes poor people be in a passive state of acceptance,and ignores their self-determination and individual rights.This top-down management will lead to some problems.On the one hand,it will lead to the policy being separated from the actual needs of the local people.On the other hand,it will cause the people to have a serious psychological dependence,which is not conducive to the cultivation and promotion of personal development ability in poverty alleviation.According to Amartya Sen's theory of capability and the actual situation of peasants in Xiangxi,the endogenous development ability of peasants to get rid of poverty is putting forward.It can be understood that rural poor people can use their knowledge and skills,actively communicate with the outside world to obtain social support,and effectively use various resources to achieve sustainable poverty alleviation and prosperity.This concept highlights the subjectivity of farmers in the implementation of poverty alleviation policies,and also corresponds to the essence of precise poverty alleviation.This study designed a questionnaire from four perspectives: cultural competence,economic competence,participation and expression competence,and confidence in poverty alleviation.Taking the farmers in Runya Township of Xiangxi Prefecture as the object of investigation,200 questionnaires were distributed to households by simple random sampling.Based on interviews with local government poverty alleviation workers,this paper evaluates the current situation and existing problems of farmers' endogenous development ability to get rid of poverty.The analysis finds that the problem of insufficient endogenous development ability of local peasants in poverty alleviation is due to the backward concept of local peasants,the persistence of outmoded customs,the lagging concept of poverty alleviation and the lack of innovation in poverty alleviation methods.Finally,the paper puts forward policy suggestions from five aspects: improving healthy poverty alleviation,deepening education poverty alleviation,innovating poverty alleviation project settings,strengthening rural civilization construction and building cadre contingent,improving the instrumental guarantee of farmers' ability to get rid of poverty.
