Recently, staff members from State Grid Jiaozuo Power Supply Company visited a breeding farm in Xuliang Town, Bo'ai County, Jiaozuo City, Henan Province. They carried out a comprehensive inspection of electrical lines and equipment at the farm, helping farmers eliminate potential safety hazards such as loose knife switches and aging power lines.

"Large-scale breeding relies on electricity at every stage, including feed processing, ventilation, and temperature control. Power supply workers respond promptly, ensuring a reliable electricity supply. With their support, I feel confident running my farm and improving my living standards," said Zhang Ping'an, a local chicken farmer.

In recent years, Jiaozuo has developed animal husbandry based on local conditions, promoting the standardized, scientific, and industrialized breeding of chickens, quails, pigs, cattle, sheep, rabbits, and other animals to boost rural revitalization. To meet the growing electricity demand of this sector, State Grid Jiaozuo Power Supply Company has improved power supply reliability through transformer capacity expansion and line upgrading and renovation.

Meanwhile, staff members from State Grid Jiaozuo Power Supply Company have actively provided extended services, helping farmers inspect electrical lines and equipment for potential hazards, raising their awareness of electricity safety, and explaining emergency response procedures for equipment failures to prevent economic losses caused by sudden power outages. Staff members also learn about farmers' development plans and provide full-process tracking services. By empowering farmers with reliable electricity, the company helps them maintain stable production and increase their income, injecting new vitality into rural revitalization.

Since 2025, employees of State Grid Jiaozuo Power Supply Company have helped farmers eliminate more than 300 potential safety hazards such as loose knife switches and aging lines, promptly resolved 24 power failures, and carried out over 2,000 instances of targeted guidance on safe electricity use.
