Abstract: Since 2013,China has encouraged small-scale farmers to fit into modern agriculture in the wave of“New Agricultural Revolution”. In this backdrop,Giddens’interpretation of the autonomous action ability of actors is utilized to make a longitudinal time and multiple cases study on the industrial poverty alleviation model of three former poor villages in Guanyang County,Guangxi. The result reveals the internal mutual construction mechanism between small-scale farmers’independent production capacity and modern industrial models. Specifically,compared with the contract type and the employment type,the unification-and-separation combined industry pattern constructs a“quasi-daily production situation”for smallholders. In this situation,small-scale farmers have formed a complete structure of consciousness and stably stayed in the consciousness of practice;their independent production capacity has been fully activated; a long-term interactive promotion relationship has been formed between smallholders and agricultural modernization,and a sustainable development pattern has been formed between their capacity improvement and industrial development. Therefore,in the process of rural revitalization,the state should make overall planning and play the driving role of agricultural capital,the production role of smallholders,and the role of constructing village and community collectives. Thus,small-scale farmers can gradually integrate into modern agriculture in the mutual symbiosis of tradition and modernity.

Key words: small-scale farmer, new type of agricultural management entity, modern agriculture, industrial pattern, organic connection
